Produced 2 good efforts at Cabourg before faulting in a 2625m Class E at Saint-Jean-de-Monts a month ago. Benjamin Rochard reining this time and can figure prominently if he can keep her trotting

Makes first appearance since faulting in a 2750m Cabourg Class D on 16 July. Has previously won over course and distance, sports a fresh configuration and, while not a priority, is still worth monitoring

Good, consistent sort that finished 7th of 8, on return from a spell, in a 2775m harness Class E at Les Sables-d’Olonne late last month. Has a conditioner under her belt and every chance of winning this

Sanctioned early in a 2250m Enghien Class D on 11 August. Is never easy to gauge but Alexandre Abrivard stays faithful and will not be far from the action if he can keep her focused

Ran 5th at Enghien before losing her action in a Class D under these conditions 3 weeks ago. Form is not in question and the engagement of a top jockey will be expected to pay dividends

Race Overview
Simply excellent under the saddle, KEMETCHA DES BAUX (6) is shod to preference for her return to the code following a much-needed harness conditioner, and looks very much the pick of the field. She will still encounter resistance from KOOKIE DE BELLANDE (3) who is plainly close to her race, and KHALEESI LA VIE (10) who has hardly put a foot out of line since the spring. KALINE DE VIVOIN (8) failed to make it around unscathed here late last month but returns to racing shod and being reunited with Eric Raffin will only work in her favour.
