Has not been seen out since finishing 12th of 13 in a Class D under these conditions mid-September, and is unlikely to shake things up

Has 2 races in him since the summer break, most recently 6th of 13 behind GETEHI DU NOYER (6) in a 2850m Laval Class D 9 days ago, and has a lot more to find

Authoritative winner of a Class D under these conditions on 25 October. Has a lot going for him this time and Alexandre Abrivard will be eager to confirm Paul Ploquin's success

3rd over track and trip before finishing 8th of 15 in a 2875m Meslay Class E early-October. Reunited with JMB, could not have hoped for a better draw, and will be no pushover

Last but one in a 2200m Caen Class B on 20 October. Shod to preference this time but still has no possible chance

Reassuring 3rd of 13 in a 2850m Laval Class D 9 days ago. Has form over 2100m here and, in current condition, will not be far off the mark

Drops in category after finishing 8th of 10 in a 2600m Gr.3 at La Rochelle last weekend. Form is not in question and Benjamin Rochard will be justifiably aiming at a place in the mix

Sanctioned in a 2700m Class D here last weekend. Reliability not her strong suit but, given the entry, deserves to be taken seriously

Completed the hat-trick in a 2850m Lyon-Parilly Class C on 10 October. Won over track and trip on penultimate start and is not incapable of defying the draw and imposing

Imposed over 2700m here before finishing 13th of 14 in a 2150m Mauquenchy Class D on Wednesday. Would have preferred a better draw but nonetheless backs up with a respectable chance of making amends

Returns to Vincennes not having been seen out since finishing 9th of 12 over 3140m in Kalmar on 20 September. Has never delivered here and is not about to start

5th to GAROU DU CHENE (3) in a Class D under these conditions on 25 October. Is plainly in decent shape but neither the draw nor the company will suit his objectives

Starts for first time since faulting in a 2600m Cavaillon Class C on 20 September. Appreciates the main track but will have his work cut out this time

Somewhat unlucky 11th of 14 in a 2150m Mauquenchy Class D last Wednesday but still has too much to do

Serious nordic sort making first appearance since finishing last but one over 2140m at Hagmyren on 22 September. Not ideally-drawn but is as versatile as they come and should not be underestimated

9th of 11 in a Class E over course and distance on 11 October. Form heading in wrong direction and must first reaffirm
