3rd of 14, on first start since June, in a 2800m Rambouillet Class B early last month. Has merit but is unlikely to shake things up this time

Made no impact on return to the track, coming 12th of 14 in a 2850m Laval Class E last Monday, and even racing barefoot, will have nothing to offer

10th of 14 when being conditioned for this in a 2850m Laval Class E 9 days ago. Is dynamic when barefoot and focused, and has a reasonable chance of opening her winter account

Won in Kalmar last month before coming 2nd of 14 in a 2850m Laval Class E 9 days ago. Nicolas Bazire back in the bike and has a reasonable chance of picking up a cheque

Has yet to disappoint when barefoot, latterly 3rd of 12 in a 2200m Class D here 2.5 weeks ago. Has no references over the main track but still looks capable of getting in on the action

Hardy filly that finished 8th of 10 in a 2100m Class D here a month ago. Should be at peak fitness by now and looks significantly more competitive this time around

Race Overview
Twice a winner here last season, KAROLENE D'ETANG (14) has had just the one conditioner since returning to competition but she is shod to preference and, if applied, can get straight back in the game. KELLISIA GIRL (5) won her last 2 barefoot runs and, after 2 re-entry races, will be no shrinking violet. Victorious at Enghien before being sent for a rest, KAPELLA DAIRPET (13) left a good impression on comeback here mid-October, will have progressed for the run, and is unlikely to be far from the action. 8th that day, KIMMERIDGIENNE (15) did not live up to expectations, but she enjoys a fabulous entry and Franck Nivard will be eager to take advantage.
