Consistent veteran mare whose competitiveness at this level off her current mark is certain. Runner-up over track and trip on 14 March and has another winning chance here

Achieved his sole career victory in a handicap over this track and trip in December. Didn't go unnoticed when finishing 6th in a 2000m handicap on heavy ground at Fontainebleau on 6 March - contender

Unreliable mare whose only win was over 1500m on the PSF. Has stamina doubts over this distance and could only finish 6th in a 1600m handicap at Craon when last seen on 3 September - others preferred

Won a 2000m PSF handicap at Pau in January but looked less competitive under a 2,5kg penalty when only 5th in a handicap over that course and distance on 18 February. Has a bit to find

Won a course-and-distance handicap two starts back (24 February) but could only manage to finish 7th over this track and trip last time under a 3kg penalty. Place chance at best

Won consecutive outings at Ostende in August but has gone off the boil since - is hard to make a case for here having finished a modest 7th in a minor 2100m contest on the PSF at Mons on 5 March. Overlook

Caught the eye when 3rd in a course-and-distance handicap on 7 December but, on the evidence of her 2 subsequent outings, appears to have regressed since. Finished 14th over track and trip on 25 January

Finished 11th in a 2000m handicap on heavy ground at Fontainebleau on 6 March but that effort is best ignored. Has sound references on PSF and should be more competitive reverting to this surface

Has regained momentum recently and shown signs of improvement dropped in the weights/ratings to his current mark. Finished 5th in a 1600m PSF handicap at Pau on 10 March

Runner-up over track and trip last time, closely matched wth OSER (1), in a handicap on 24 February. Not taken lightly

Improved to finish 6th when refitted with blinkers in a 1400m PSF handicap at Pau on 18 February. That headgear is dispensed with now over this distance

Made a pleasing reappearance at Mulheim on 17 March, when finishing 4th in a minor 2000m event. Will need to improve to be competitive here

No longer the force of old but has sound references off his current mark and undeniable means to play a role in a race of this nature. Finished 6th on a 2000m PSF handicap on 19 February

Returned to form with an encouraging 4th in a 1700m handicap on very heavy ground at Marseille-Borely on 13 February. Better suited to this surface and should make his presence felt

Hard-knocking veteran mare whose best efforts (all 6 career wins) have all come achieved on turf. Lacks PSF references and is best watched for now after finishing 9th in a 2100m handicap at Vittel on 19 August
