Disqualified (barefoot) in her last start over 2700m at this venue on 18 November but is most efficient/competitive in this shoe-fitting. Dark horse

Consistent filly with sound references/form credentials, albeit without success (11-start maiden). Well-beaten 10th at Enghien over 2875m on 7 October when resuming after a 3-month absence - it'd be unwise to dismiss her chances
Ecurie Des Essarts

Dm7hDmDm5m5
Tricky customer but usually acquits herself competitively when applied, especially under these or similar conditions. Confirmed as much by finishing 5th over in a course-and-distance mounted race on 18 November - not taken lightly
Ecurie A & B Angot
F

5h8h5m5m1m2
A model of consistency under the saddle but has raised her game recently in 2 starts with this barefoot configuration. Finished 2nd over track and trip on 18 November - keep safe
V Swimberghe

-m8m4h0h0m4
Proven under the saddle and most efficient/competitive without her irons - confirmed as much with a reassuring 4th (unshod) in a 2550m mounted race at Reims on 14 November. Attractive outsider
Ecurie B

Dm2m1m6mDmD
Fragile filly with undeniable means and sound references/form credentials when remaining wise - seldom far off the mark when applied. Disqualified in back-to-back recent starts, the latest at this venue over 2175m on 5 November
J G Van Eeckhaute

Complicated and seldom far from a fault but usually acquits herself well when avoiding disqualification. Finished 2nd (plated) in a 2250m mounted race at Enghien on 17 October
Ecurie Philippe David

4hDm4m3m7h5
Versatile mare with sound references in both codes under these conditions/with this barefoot configuration. Didn't go unnoticed when 5th in a 2850m harness race at this venue on 22 October

Dm5mDm2m4mD
Delicate filly with undeniable means - usually acquits herself competitively when remaining wise (isn't disqualified). Shouldn't be hastily condemned for her latest faux pas over 21750m at this venue on 5 November - warrants respect
Ecurie Thierry Raffegeau
F

9m6m1mDm1m1
Won her last 3 completed outings (4 starts) and is unbeaten in 2 appearances with this shoeing configuration. Scored under the saddle at Enghien over 2250m on 17 October - hard to oppose
Mlle Elise Raulline

DhDhDhDm2m5
Fragile filly whose experience and good recent form/fitness will stand her in good stead. Confirmed the improvement of her Enghien 2nd in a 2875m mounted race last month by finishing 5th over 2875m at Argentan on 3 November
Ecurie Rib

Experienced and versatile mare whose consistency alternating between the codes is impressive. Runner-up over track and trip in a harness race on 9 November after finishing 3rd under the saddle at Enghien over 2250m last month

Race Overview
KATLINE MOUROTAISE (10) is currently going through a purple patch and she looks a sound winning proposition once again. She is retained ahead of KALINE DE VIVOIN (9) who has ample talent but remains very delicate, and in-form KALINE DU RIB (11), who runs over her ideal trip. KISMIE DE MONTFORT (12) posted a very reassuring effort last time out and must be given some consideration too.
Selection:
10 - 9 - 11
