Although seen more often than not under the saddle, ICARE DU POMMEREUX (5) left a good impression under these conditions during the summer and from the 5-spot is well-placed to win this. Tom Debost will still feel the heat from ICARE DU POMMEREUX (5) who has been very hard to knock lately, and the generous IDEAL MADRIK (4) who is barefoot for his first objective of the autumn. Solid in both starts here this year, INTELLO D'ERABLE (3) will have a reasonable claim on the silverware.
Sanctioned, when unsupported, in a Class E over course and distance 3 weeks ago. Barefoot this time but can still be passed over

Produced 3 good runs before finishing an unremarkable 6th of 11 to INES DE L'ELLE (6) in a 2750m Angouleme Class F 2.5 weeks ago. Pleased on lone Cabourg appearance though and could yet eke out some prizemoney

Five times a winner since the start of the summer, and ideally-entered here, INDIGO BEACH (13) has every chance of complementing his Graignes success. Runner-up to him that day, after having finished 2nd at Mauquenchy, HYPERION DU BOCAGE (10) should again feature prominently, but may first have to see off INDICE DU CAIEU (11) who has improved with every run recently. Very hard to knock when focused, IN LOVE REGLISSE (9) has 2 runs under his belt, has previously won here and, barefoot for the occasion, will have an active role to play.
Sanctioned more often than not, most recently a 2925m Cagnes Class E on 21 August. Comes here fresh, with Yoann Lebourgeois reining, and can play a role if he keeps his charge trotting

Close to his race, and runner-up here earlier in the month, KITOUDOUBLE DELUNE (5) starts in front again and has a realistic chance of opening his Cabourg account. KRYSTAL PIYA (16) imposed that day and should again figure prominently, but may first have to defer to KILOU (13), who has never disappointed here, and a reconfigured KAID BOURGEOIS (4) who steps up in category on a hat-trick.

At the top of his game for the past 3 months, and in his element racing right-handed, JEST THE BEST (15) is reunited with Yoann Lebourgeois and, considering the form of both horse and driver, can wrap this up. That being said, JET NONANTAIS (11) finished a place behind him at Caen recently, and has already won at Cabourg this year. Similarly victorious here, JACKSON D'ECAJEUL (7) returns fresh for the occasion and with shoes back on, can get straight back in the game. JASMIN GEMA (8) caught the eye in Paris earlier in the month and, with Benjamin Rochard in the bike, will be afforded every chance.
Qualified decently at Grosbois in June and confirmed with a solid 4th of 11 in a 2550m Reims Class E on debut last Sunday. Is plainly a colt for the future and looks a serious proposition

MISTER SALTOR (6) showed both his aptitude and form at Laval late last month and, with David Thomain reining this time, can make his right-handed debut a winning one. MAGNUS MAXIMUS (1) has been given the rail here but has looked a decent trotter in the making and will be no soft touch. MYTHIQUE RENKA (3) is better than his latest performance here would suggest and will be competitive for a step on the podium this time.

A nicely-bred filly that qualified very smartly at Caen during the summer, David Thomain gets the nod for her debut and, despite the draw, can make it a winning one. MIMI RAUDIERE (2) has 2 races under her belt, caught the eye at Laval last time, and looks the main danger. MODESTY (5) did everything asked of her first time out, will have come on for the run, and benefits from the engagement of Paul Ploquin. Unexceptional in her spring qualification, MELINA SUPREME (14) has had time to come on, hails from one of the best yards in the country, and cannot be ignored
Untried filly that qualified in 1'19 0 at Caen last April, and will struggle to make any impact

Disappointing for some time, most recently over 2850m at Nuillé-sur-Vicoin 10 days ago, and even sporting modified shoeing, can be confidently ruled out

Debuts under the saddle after faulting in a 2725m Lisieux harness Class G 11 days ago. Is not about to spring a surprise but, with Paul Ploquin in the irons, can hold her own

No closer than 4th in 7 starts under the saddle, most recently sanctioned in 3 October race of reference. Adrien Lamy onboard this time and can get a look-in if he keeps her focused

Ran 3rd at Castillonnès before coming 5th of 8 in a 2900m Challans Class F 11 days ago. Appears to be on way back up and the revised configuration should work to her advantage. Chance

Has been giving a good account of herself lately, most recently 4th of 9 to KRISTINA DU CLOS (16) in a Class E over course and distance 3 weeks ago. Unlikely to lose maiden tag but can still hold her own

Encouraged at Agon before finishing 8th of 11, behind KARYNNA FLOMART (13), in a 3000m Class F at Rochefort-sur-Loire early-August. Unraced since and with shoes on will have little to contribute

Lost her action early in a 2450m Caen Class F on 18 September. Is plainly in cracking form and can make this her own if Benjamin Rochard assures her initial strides

Sanctioned in both since returning from her break, latterly when fighting out finish in 3 October race of reference. Shoes back on though and best to keep one's powder dry

Last but one, when preparing for this, in a harness Class E over course and distance on 5 October. Has nothing to prove under these conditions and, with application, can redeem herself

11th of 14, on return to competition, in a 2100m Vincennes Class E earlier in the month. Will have come on for the run and, even in spite of a 25m handicap, should logically finish in the mix this time

Winner under these conditions during the summer, KATANGA DE L'ITON (12) was sanctioned at Caen last time but is reunited with Benjamin Rochard, who won with him here, and can return to successful ways. They can nevertheless expect to encounter resistance from KISSME COOL D'EB (7) who has hind shoes off for her return to the venue, and second-row starter, KRISTINA DU CLOS (16), who ran 2nd over course and distance 3 weeks ago. Somewhat disappointing since imposing here during the summer, KLEM (17) freshened up under harness and can start to put things right.

Somewhat reassuring 6th of 12, behind L AS DES CARAIBES (9), in a 2725 Class E here 3 weeks ago. Will not be available at 152/1 but cannot be considered a priority either

Has not been seen out since faulting in a 2700m Class D at Le Croise-Laroche 5 months ago. Not the easiest of horses to handle but is better than most here, and can win this if he stays in stride

Although sanctioned more often than not, Sebastien Guarato's LONDON EYE (10) has shown significant promise and, with hind pads fitted for his first start since the spring, can open his autumn account. Yoann Lebourgeois will still want to be wary of the improving L'AS DES CARAIBES (9) who defied his odds here earlier in the month, and the Duvaldestin's L'ESPOIR (12) who will have benefitted from his Meslay re-entry run. Revitalised since starting to race with pads, LOCO FLIGNY (7) got off the mark late last month and, with morale intact, will be competitive for the double.
