Has shown significant promise but has not been seen out since being sanctioned in a 2450m Caen Class D 5 months ago, and will need the run

Encouraged at Le Croise-Laroche before finishing 6th of 7 in a 2900m Amiens Class B a fortnight ago. Takes a dip in category but still has no possible chance

Won on debut before confirming in a 2725m Lisieux Class E on 22 October. Is brimming with talent and has every chance of keeping his perfect record intact
Ecurie Haras Des Quatre Vents

Got off the mark nicely in a 2900m Challans Class E on 13 October. Yet to disappoint when fitted with pads and is unlikely to buck the trend

4th of 12 in a 2725m Cabourg Class E on 3 October. Untried left-handed but Gabi Gelormini in the bike this time and will be afforded every chance

Winner of last 2, latterly a 2950m Saint-Malo Class E late-September. Pierre-Yves Verva drafted in and, while unlikely to pull off the hat-trick, can still figure prominently

Flattering 4th at Vincennes before finishing last of 9 in a 2150m Enghien Class D a month back. Shoes back on and others preferred

6th of 11, on return to competition, in a 2875m Enghien Class D mid-October, but is unlikely to improve on that

Useful future prospect making first appearance since coming 3rd of 13 in a 2700m Class E at La Capelle on 23 September. Has had time to recuperate and, if focused, can finish in thick of things

Ran good 2nd of 11 in a 2275m Nantes Class E early last month, on first left-handed start. Has form in good company and can apply some pressure on LEADER WIND (4)
Ecurie Dairpet
C

Sanctioned, when going well, in a 2100m Vincennes Class D a month ago. Should take well to new profile and, if applied, can play a small part

Race Overview
Unbeaten in both starts to date, LEADER WIND (4) goes left-handed for the first time and, even though fully shod, will still garner the lion's share of support. LE BIBI DAIRPET (13) made up at Nantes for his Ecommoy blip and poses the main threat. Winner last month, LOVE FEELING (5) faces a stiffer test going the other direction this time, but has thrived with pads fitted and can still finish close. Considerably more performant in the day's configuration, LORENZO DE BUCY (6) looks competitive once more.
