Briefly lost her way before getting back in the game, latterly winning a 2650m Pornichet Class E a fortnight ago, and looks main threat to KEEP ON ROLLING (13)

Pleasant 5th of 11, a place behind KAPUCINE ZEN (7), on first start back, in a 2100m Class D here 2 weeks ago. Will have come on for the run and is unlikely to go home empty-handed

Made up for her Pornichet sanction when successful in a 2800m Strasbourg Class E last week, but faces a stiffer test this time around

Sanctioned at Cabourg before finishing 8th of 10 in a 2150m Enghien Class D on 24 July. Comes here fresh but others still preferred

Convincingly won a 2700m Class D at La Capelle 10 days ago when reunited with Franck Nivard, but a repeat seems unlikely

Has never disappointed when barefoot, most recently 4th of 11 in a 2100m Class D here a fortnight ago, and is capable of playing another active role

Sanctioned when preparing for this in a 2775m Class E at Les Sables-d'Olonne late last month and, even with hind shoes off, will have few friends

Quality element going barefoot for the first time after finishing last of 9 when preparing for this in a Class D under these conditions 2.5 weeks ago. Not a priority but is one to keep an eye on

Not without merit and has won over course and distance, but 3 straight sanctions do little to inspire confidence

3rd of 9 in a Class D over course and distance on 21 August. Takes on a better bunch this time though and chances limited

Close 2nd of 9 finishers in a 2050m Cabourg Class D 2 weeks ago. Seldom seen left-handed but in current condition is very easy to like for a step on the podium

Made it 2 wins on the trot when dominating a 2750m Cabourg Class E 3.5 weeks ago. Flopped on lone appearance here but looks the one to beat this time around

5th of 11, at 122/1, in a 2875m Enghien Class D mid-August but confirmation seems improbable

Missed out by little in a 2775m Class E at Les Sables-d'Olonne late last month. Hind shoes off and will not be available at 89/1 on this occasion

Significantly better horse than her 6th of 11 in a 2875m Enghien Class D mid-August would suggest. Races first time barefoot and the change of driver may be just the ticket to her redemption

Race Overview
KEEP ON ROLLING (13) may not be the simplest of horses but her ability has been very much in evidence recently and, barefoot at Vincennes for the first time, can pull off the 3-timer. David Thomain will unsurprisingly be keeping a watchful eye on the reinvigorated KIRENE FLASH (2) who has been entrusted to Alexandre Abrivard for the first time, and the superbly-engaged, and barefoot, KIM DE BEAUM (16) who is reunited with JMB who has already won with her. Like a horse reborn since starting to race barefoot, KIRENE FLASH (2) is plainly close to her race and must be respected.
Selection:
13 - 2 - 16
