Reassuring 4th of 10 in a 2650m Saint-Galmier Class F 12 days ago, but still has a lot more to find

Sanctioned in 2 since returning from the break, latterly early in a Class E over course and distance on 21 November. Has buckets of ability though and it is just a question of time before she comes good. Claim

Sprang a 122/1 surprise winning a 2825m Cordemais Class F on 24 November. Is confirmed on the main track in the other code and it would be foolhardy to write her off. First 5

Raced well at Laval before quickly losing her action in a Class E over course and distance a week ago. Top pilot in the bike and can impose if he succeeds in keeping her trotting

Makes Vincennes debut after running 5th of 10 in a 2550m Reims Class E 3 weeks ago. Has evident ability but would be preferred at a marginally lower level

6th of 8, on comeback, in a 2700m Graignes Class E a fortnight ago. Flopped on lone start at the venue and will generate very little interest

3rd of 6 in a 3000m Nantes Class A on 17 November. Consistently gives her best and although unlikely to lose her maiden status, can nonetheless get a look-in

Quality element that reassured when 3rd of 8 in a Class E over course and distance 2 weeks ago. With no snow this time, she should go closer

Sanctioned in both since returning from the break, most recently a 2200m Caen Class D on 20 October. Won 2 from 4 earlier in the year though and is due a big run

Victorious at Borely last March before the break and picked up where she left off, winning a 2200m Class E at Salon-de-Provence on 19 October. In this category, cannot be considered a priority but should still hold her own

5th over the short course before finishing 8th of 9 in a 2850m Laval Class A 3 weeks ago, and is not about to spring any surprises

Placed 3rd in last 2, most recently a 2175m Class E here a week ago. Has a lot going for her here and, reunited with Benjamin Rochard, can finally have her day in the sun

Race Overview
Both LUCRECE HAUFOR (2) and LOVA DE LA COUR (4) compromised their respective chances last time out but neither should be too hastily-condemned. Each has merit and while LOVA DE LA COUR (4) will be reined by Jean-Michel Bazire, LUCRECE HAUFOR (2) may just have the edge. Just 20 Euros from elimination and clearly close to her race, LAURIANE DU RIED (12) will be no soft touch, and neither will the reconfigured L'ORANGE (8) who pleased over course and distance a fortnight ago.
Selection:
2 - 4 - 12
