5th of 14, on ridden debut, in a 2850m Laval Class F 2.5 weeks ago. Sports 4 pads for first time but in this category will struggle to make her mark

Put on a decent show when 3rd of 9 in a 2200m Class E here on 12 December. Mathieu Mottier keeps faith and is not incapable of getting her off the mark

Useful sort that lost her action early in a Class E over course and distance a month back. Is confirmed under these conditions but others still easier to back

Serious filly that came a clear 3rd of 9 in a Class E over course and distance on 25 November. Has been afforded ample time to get back in shape and can expect the lion's share of support

3rd under harness at Toulouse before coming 2nd of 9 in a 2725m Grenade Class E 10 days ago. In better company this time but with Eric Raffin in the irons, will still generate interest

Has not been seen out since finishing 8th of 13 in a 2150m Enghien harness Class D 2 months ago. Makes monte debut with Benjamin Rochard in the saddle though and must not be overlooked

Race Overview
Improving with every run, LITTLELOU MATIDY (6) ran a courageous race under these conditions a month ago and looks the one to beat this time. She will still come under pressure from the likes of LAREINE D'OURVILLE (5) who has turned a corner since switching disciplines, and the temperamental but able L'IMPERIALE AR (2) who reassured over shorter here a fortnight ago.
