8th of 9 in a 2700m Gr.3 here on 19 January. Sports front pads this time and can be ruled out
Ecurie Ostheimer
F

2h2-h1h1hD
Won Prix de Belgique with authority before being sanctioned when going well in Prix d'Amerique late-January. Has been wisely-campaigned and can wrap this up if Thomas Levesque keeps her trotting

Last in Prix de Cornulier before repeating in Prix de France 2 weeks ago and can be confidently disregarded
Ecurie Christian Bigeon
C

3h3-h0h7hD
Going well when sanctioned in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here a fortnight back. Untried over the day's distance but is clearly in form and ignored at one's peril. Attention

Last but one finisher to JOUMBA DE GUEZ (10) in 2700m monte Gr.1 Prix de Cornulier here on 19 January and has no possible chance

M Soulas

Makes first appearance since running 9th of 18 in Prix d'Amerique on 26 January. Thrives with Eric Raffin but no more than a minor place chance

3h7-h2h6h7
Honourable but unthreatening 7th of 13 behind INMAROSA (12) in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here earlier this month but will appreciate this longer distance and will have his supporters
R Wittmann

1h1m2-m1m1
Terrific winner of 2700m monte Gr.1 Prix de Cornulier here on 19 January. Boasts serious but less-exalted harness references, although in current form is easy to like for a spot in the mix
Ecurie Vautors
C
6 yrs
6h6h1h6-h4
Has not been seen out since running 4th of 18 in Prix d'Amerique on 26 January. Won Gr.1 Criterium des 5 Ans last time reined by his trainer and looks a serious proposition
Ecurie Bg Trot
F

Dh0-h5h8h2
Defied her 21/1 odds when 2nd of 13 in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here earlier this month. Pleased on lone appearance under these conditions and has a realistic chance of finishing in the thick of things
J Cottel

1h0h8-h5hD
Ran 5th in Prix d'Amerique before faulting in Prix de France a fortnight ago. Back under conditions he appreciates, is barefoot as he was in 2024, and has a realistic chance of pulling off the double

8hD-h7h0h6
Respectable 6th of 13 in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here 2 weeks ago. Won this race in 2023 but has not been particularly sharp this winter and has a lot more to find

Race Overview
Still fresh aged 7, IROISE DE LA NOE (3) was outstanding in the Belgique before getting on the wrong side of Lady Luck in the Prix d'Amerique; she is as tenacious as they come though, will not be bothered by the trip, and can secure the first Gr.1 of her career. She will however be up against last year's chrono-breaking winner HUSSARD DU LANDRET (13) who can repeat if focused, and classic-winning JOSH POWER (11) who finished a place ahead of him in the Amerique. Runner-up in 2024 and recently re-energised in the Prix de France, INMAROSA (12) must be taken seriously.
