Last but one over 1640m at home in Jagersro late-July. Has monte form in Sweden but appears to be biting off more than he can chew

7th of 8, behind ZANZA FRANK (8), in a 2725m Pornichet Class E 11 days ago. Yet to show any particular bent for the code and can be ruled out

Won a 2950m Le Mans Class E, on comeback 3 weeks ago. Mathieu Mottier in the irons this time and could well win this if he manages to keep his charge trotting

Not entirely without merit but trailed in last of 8 in a 2550m Class D at Beaumont-de-Lomagne on 9 September and will need to raise his game

8th of 10, on return to competition, in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 2.5 weeks ago. Will have come on for the run but others still preferred

Won at Cabourg before enduring stride woes in a 2875m Argentan Class F mid-July. Unraced since but is no slouch when focused and must be considered a contender

Returns to racing right-handed after finishing last but one in a 2700m Vincennes Class C last week. Unexceptional here in July and not a priority

Quality Italian veteran that has turned a corner since coming to France, latterly 5th of 8 in a 2725m Pornichet Class E 11 days ago, but has conditions in his favour here and can make this his own

Runner-up in last 3, most recently a 3100m Class H at Nort-sur-Erdre 2.5 weeks ago. Steps back up in category but has nothing to prove at this level and will be expected to give ZANZA FRANK (8) a run for his money

Last of 14 when preparing for this in a 2950m harness Class E at Le Mans 3 weeks ago. Boasts solid monte references though and, barefoot for the occasion, could pleasantly surprise

Back under the saddle after coming 4th of 9 in a 2550m Reims harness Class G mid-month and is not about to spring a surprise

Debuts in the discipline after finishing 9th of 13 in a 2700m Graignes Class F late-August, and will have few friends

5th of 6 in a 2625m Class F at La Rochelle early-August. Enjoys a good entry though, races barefoot for first time in over 2 years, and will be dangerous if Marius Durville keeps him trotting

Made up for her Laval sanction when 3rd of 8 in a 2750m Class E at La Capelle on 23 September. Is unlikely to cause an upset but can still make her presence felt
