In the frame in last 2, latterly 2nd of 8 finishers in a 2700m Graignes Class F a month back. Takes on a better lot this time though and chances seem slim

Has been knocking at the door since the autumn, most recently 4th of 12 in a 2700m Class E here 9 days ago. Barefoot for first time here but still represents no more than a minor place prospect

5th of 11 in a Class E over course and distance 3 weeks ago. David Thomain in the bike this time but a repeat still seems improbable

Did not enjoy the best of trips when 6th of 12 behind KALIBRE (2) in a 2700m Class E here on 21 January. Seems to be close to previous form and is not one to be written off

Would have finished closer than 6th of 10 in a 2150m Cagnes Class E last week had he not faulted close to home. Has a poor Vincennes history though and can be ruled out

Failed to confirm good Pontchateau run when 7th of 9 finishers behind KAYAK (12) in a 2700m Class E here on 4 January. Races first-time barefoot though and will be expected to show another side

Won a 2800m Argentan Class F last Saturday, 2 weeks after placing at Angers. Has yet to show any liking for Vincennes however and others preferred

Starts for the first time since running 2nd of 10 finishers in a 2550m Bordeaux claimer early-December. Shoes on for re-entry and best to hold off

Got 2025 off to a good start with 100/1 success in a 2425m Angers Class F last week. Has never disappointed when barefoot and although unlikely to repeat, should still be taken seriously

Made all to comfortably win a 2850m Mauquenchy Class E 2.5 weeks ago. Should take well to the main-track profile and has every chance of doubling his money

Got back in the game 11 days ago when 2nd of 13 in a 2650m Saint-Galmier Class E. Flopped on lone start here but Eric Raffin gets the nod this time and will afford him every chance. First 5

Has taken well to Vincennes conditions, most recently 3rd of 9 finishers in a 2700m Class E on 4 January. Is not far off winning in the capital and must be afforded considerable respect

Has 2 races under his belt since the break, most recently 7th of 18 in a 3125m Angers Class F last Saturday. Shoes on however and others easier to back

5th over 2700m here in December before coming 7th of 13 in a 2750m Cabourg Class E early this month. Is plainly better than that and given the chance will be close to the action

Gives Vincennes another shot after coming 2nd of 14 in a 2650m Bordeaux Class E 3 weeks ago. Barefoot for the first time at the venue and with Mathieu Mottier in the bike will be no easy touch
