Unraced since coming 3rd of 8 in a 2700m Vincennes monte Class E last March. Preparing for a campaign under the saddle and can be disregarded

7th of 11 finishers in a 2700m Thouars Class F on 25 August. No longer the horse he once was and can be ruled out

12th of 14 when preparing for this in a 2725m Pornichet Class F a fortnight ago. Has made no impact for some time and is not about to change his ways

Respectable 8th of 12 in a 2100m Vincennes Class D 3 weeks ago. Drops back in category, is proven here and, although unlikely to win, can still make first 5

Has taken some time to come to hand recently but reassured when 4th to HALMA D'AMER (9) in a Class E over track and trip on 6 September. Has never failed to fire here and has a legitimate claim on a place in the frame

In the frame in 2 before finishing 7th of 13 in a 2850m Vincennes Class D 8 days ago. Flopped on only Laval start but, in this field, looks capable of picking up a cheque

Has not been seen out since finishing 9th of 11 in a 3325m Villereal Class B early-August. Is plainly out of sorts and will have little to contribute

3rd of 15 in a 2500m Craon Class B 12 days ago. Has not put a foot wrong for past month and, winner on lone Laval appearance, must be afforded considerable respect

Not once out of first 2 in last 6 starts, most recently an authoritative winner of a Class E over course and distance early last month, and is in with a realistic shout of doubling up

Won at Landivisiau before coming 2nd of 14 in a 2725m Class E 2 weeks ago. Appreciates Laval, sports a new configuration, and will generate interest

Out of the picture in last 3, most recently last of 12 in a 2100m Vincennes Class D 3 weeks ago. Leading driver at the helm and will be dangerous if he can keep her focused
