Somewhat reassuring 4th of 12 in a 2700m Class D here on 26 November. Has no references over 2850m on the long course but has the wherewithal to finish in first 5

Opened his monte account at Chartres late-November before finishing 11th of 13 in a harness Class D over track and trip 9 days ago. In this company though, looks out of his depth

Won 2 in a row here before coming 2nd of 8 in a 2175m Class D here mid-November, setting personal best time, and is arguably the only one capable of giving LUCKY GUY BOKO (6) a run for his money

Ran 3rd over 2175m before comfortably winning a Class D over course and distance 12 days ago. Moves up a level but is clearly progressing and can challenge for a place on the podium

Brilliant winner of a 2175m Class D on ridden bow here on 17 November. Has been a class act since moving to France and is in with a realistic shout of doubling his money

Exceptional under harness since the summer, most recently 2nd of 14 in a Class E over course and distance. Has yet to distinguish himself in the code but in current form has every chance of beginning the process

Race Overview
Seldom are there so few declared for a race like this but it looks a good one all the same. LUCKY GUY BOKO (6), who has made a name for himself in the harness game, simply stormed up on his recent ridden debut and even though moving up a category, he still looks the one to beat. Mathieu Mottier will still bee keeping a keen eye on the barefoot ISLAMORADA (4) who boasts an excellent monte record at Vincennes, and INDIAN PACIFIC (7) who returns to the discipline reconfigured and in cracking form.
Selection:
6 - 4 - 7
