Tries his hand in the monte discipline after faulting in a 2650m Vertou Class H a fortnight ago, and is clearly out of his league

Has shown no aptitude for either code, latterly sanctioned in a 2700m Graignes Class F a month back, and has no realistic chance

Twice 5th under the saddle before finishing 9th of 13 in a 2800m Vire harness Class E on Wednesday. Barefoot for the occasion but a minor place chance at best

Quality sort that made up for his Vire blip with an authoritative win in a Class E over course and distance on 18 August, and has a realistic chance of confirming
B Robin

Takes her chances in the monte code for first time, having finished 10th of 13 in a 2750m Cabourg Class E 12 days ago, and even with hind shoes off, can expect to have few takers

Switches code for first time after coming 6th of 7 in a 2950m Saint-Malo Class E on 13 August, but is not devoid of ability and should not be overlooked

Ran 2nd of 11 in a 2750m Cabourg Class F on return to the code mid-August. Has never disappointed under the saddle and must be respected

3rd on monte debut here on 18 July before repeating in a 2750m Cabourg Class E later that month, and looks capable of trotting his way into the frame

2nd of 8 in a 2550m Cherbourg Class E 3 weeks ago. Has solid right-handed references and, with form and stride maintained, will be in a position to give this a good go

Sanctioned in a 3025m Montier-en-Der harness Class F 3 weeks ago. Is nowhere near her best and must get her house in order

Put 5 straight sanctions behind her when victorious in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F on 5 August. Is as complicated as they come but on good behaviour can play a prominent role

Absolutely flying when sanctioned in a 2725m Pornichet Class E on 8 August. Has been afforded time to freshen up and, if focused, can make a big impact

Race Overview
With the exception of his Vire sanction, KAKOU ALDO (4) has been remarkable in the monte code and, given the nature of his victory here last month, he will again take all the beating. That said, KUZA DU BOUILLON (12) could well have won at Pornichet a month ago had she stayed in stride, and must be afforded due credit. Clear 3rd here mid-July, KALOU DES NOEES (8) ran 3rd of 10 in a 2750m Cabourg Class E a fortnight later and, fresh for the occasion, is not about to let the side down. 3rd at Graignes before coming 2nd at Cherbourg 3 weeks ago, KEOPS DE GODINIERE (9) will be expected to challenge for a podium-place once more.
