Moves to the monte discipline after 2 straight sanctions, latterly in a 2750m Class F at La Ferte-Vidame early last month. 4 pads fitted this time but still not an obvious choice

Would have finished in the money had she not faulted in the final stages of a 2175m Vincennes Class D 12 days ago. Hails from a yard firing on all cylinders and is very much in the running for a spot on the podium

Yet to show much aptitude for either code, most recently sanctioned in a 2300m Bernay Class E 4 weeks ago, and can be written off

Has evident talent but sanctioned in 4 of 5, latterly a 2750m Cabourg Class E on 23 August. Adrien Lamy gives her another go but others still preferred

5th of 9 in a 2800m Moulins harness Class F last Sunday. Yet to finish a monte race unscathed and is not about to break the mould

Encouraged at Dozule, beating LOLITA DE MIELOUI (15), before faulting in a 2300m Bernay Class E on 25 August, and seems to be out of her depth

Flattering 4th of 7, behind LOLITA DE MIELOUI (15) in a 2750m Cabourg Class E a month ago. Fitted with front pads for first time though and should not be too far from the action

Takes to the monte code for first time after faulting in a 2750m Ecommoy Class F a fortnight ago, and will need to show another side

3rd of 14 on racecourse debut, a place behind stablemate LADY DES CHAMPS (11), in a Class E over course and distance on 9 September. Will have come on for the run and must be considered a leading contender

5th of 14, behind LADY DES CHAMPS (11), in a Class E over track and trip on 9 September. Pads on again but others easier to back this time

Showed considerable aptitude on monte debut earlier this month, coming 2nd of 14 in a Class E over course and distance. Has buckets of untapped potential and can get off the mark if Benjamin Rochard keeps her in stride

Has started to come good, most recently 3rd behind LOLITA DE MIELOUI (15) in a 2750m Cabourg Class E a month ago. Is never far from faulting but is plainly progressing and legitimately takes her chances

Made up for her Dozule performance when coming 2nd of 5 finishers in a 2300m Bernay Class E on 25 August. Takes a notable step up in category though and chances appear limited

3rd of 10 finishers in a 2750m Cabourg Class F early-August. Is a different horse since switching codes and while unlikely to open her account, can nevertheless finish in the mix

2nd under the saddle at Cabourg before finishing 9th of 11 in a 2550m Dieppe harness Class E conditioner early this month, and will be no pushover if she can replicate August's performance

Race Overview
Dominik Locqueneux presents 2 good runners here and while recent monte debutante LADY DES CHAMPS (11) beat LILIONALLY (9) on their respective monte debuts, it would be no surprise to see the tables turned. Despite being sanctioned on her recent racecourse debut, LITTLELOU MATIDY (2) would have finished in the money had she stayed in stride and should not be too hastily-judged. Ideally-entered at the limit of earnings, LOLITA DE MIELOUI (15) is reunited with Alexis Collette and a repeat of her Cabourg performance would see her finish close.
