Unraced since being sanctioned in a 2700m Class B here on 18 October. Debuts for new trainer, with Paul Ploquin in the irons and, if focused, can finish thereabouts

Useful element that ran 3rd of 8 to LEXA DE LA CROIX (7) in a 2200m Class E here 3 weeks ago but will still need to take her game up a notch

6th of 9 when preparing for this in a 2100m harness Class E a fortnight ago. Has references at a better level, sports 4 pads this time, but other more competitive options on offer

Sanctioned at Pornichet before finishing 2nd of 8 to LEXA DE LA CROIX (7) in a 2200m Class E here 3 weeks ago. Has taken well to racing with pads and has a reasonable chance of picking up another place cheque

Won easily at Cabourg before coming 2nd of 5 to LACINIA (11) in a 2700m Class E here a month ago. Returns to racing with front pads and takes to the shorter trip with legitimate ambition

Respectable 4th of 7 finishers, on return from a long absence, in a Class D over course and distance on 18 November. Has more to find but should nevertheless hold her own

Unraced since running 2nd of 7 in a 2200m Class D here on 1 October. Returns fresh and, if back on the boil, can make her presence felt

Reassuring, and surprising, 2nd of 12 in a 2700m Le Croise-Laroche harness Class E 9 days ago, but is most unlikely to repeat

Excluded after faulting in a 2625m Saint-Galmier harness Class B on 5 November. Pads fitted this time but still not easy to recommend

Made it 2 on the trot when dominating a 2700m Class E here a month ago. Climbs another rung of the category-ladder and looks eminently up to the task

Race Overview
Winner of her last two, most recently with consummate ease, LACINIA (11) takes advantage of an excellent entry here and Eric Raffin will be confident of pulling off the hat-trick. Runner-up to her a month ago, the reconfigured LA STORIA DE LOU (5) is not about to turn the tables but can nevertheless apply the pressure. LEXA DE LA CROIX (7) lost her maiden tag over the inner course last time will again be competitive at the business end of the race. LEA DE FROULAY (4) ran 2nd to her that day and can again figure prominently.
Selection:
11 - 5 - 7
