10th of 14 behind I PLAY POKER (12) in a 2675m Class G at Le Mont-Saint-Michel early-November. Front pads fitted for first time but is unlikely to create an upset

9th of 15, on first start since July, in a 2550m Beaumont Class F early this month. Shoes off this time but others still preferred

Oddly out of sorts when 8th of 16 in a 3000m Nantes Class F early last month. Debuts at Cabourg and given his aptitude, can make it a successful one

Runner-up in 2 before coming 5th of 13 in a 2400m Amiens Class F mid-November. Has previously won under these conditions and is very easy to like. Place chance

Encouraged in an amateur event before finishing last but one in a 2825m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche last Monday. Breaks in front but still not an obvious choice

3rd of 13 in a 2825m Vire amateurs Class G on 1 December. Known more for his exploits in that category but still has an important part to play

Won a brace before being unluckily sanctioned in a 2800m Argentan amateurs Class G last Sunday. Shoes off this time and must be regarded a live chance

Disappointing in last 4, latterly 9th of 14 behind IQUEM MARVIC (1) in a 2700m Graignes Class G 11 days ago, and can expect to have few takers

Confirmed Amiens performance when 4th of 12 in a 2600m Nancy Class G on 30 November. Placed last time here but more a minor place prospect on this occasion

Placed in 2 before running 6th of 10 finishers in a 2700m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche 2.5 weeks ago. In this category though will have modest ambition

Handy sort with 2 races under his belt, most recently 12th of 14 in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F a month ago. Will be fit and expected to figure prominently

Not disgraced when 6th of 14 behind IQUEM MARVIC (1) in a 2700m Graignes Class G 11 days ago. Has more to find but sports modified shoeing and can still hold his own

10th of 12 behind IZIASLAV TEK (10) in a 2600m Nancy Class G on 30 November and latest numbers do nothing to inspire confidence

Race Overview
Given time to recuperate following his early-November disappointment, the good ISKO D'IQUAINE (4) has been handed an excellent draw and with Benjamin Rochard reining can trot his way back into the winners' circle. It's unlikely to be all plain sailing though given how well a newly-barefoot INSTIGATEUR (8) has been comporting himself over recent months. Seldom disappointing at Cabourg when focused, ILLEGITIME PRINCE (5) breaks in front, enjoys a very good entry, and must be considered a priority. Confirmed at this level and entrusted to Yoann Lebourgeois, IQUEM MARVIC (1) sports front pads and will not be far off the mark.
