Moves to the monte discipline after 2 straight sanctions, latterly in a 2750m Class F at La Ferte-Vidame early last month. 4 pads fitted this time but still not an obvious choice

Would have finished in the money had she not faulted in the final stages of a 2175m Vincennes Class D 12 days ago. Hails from a yard firing on all cylinders and is very much in the running for a spot on the podium

Showed considerable aptitude on monte debut earlier this month, coming 2nd of 14 in a Class E over course and distance. Has buckets of untapped potential and can get off the mark if Benjamin Rochard keeps her in stride

Has started to come good, most recently 3rd behind LOLITA DE MIELOUI (15) in a 2750m Cabourg Class E a month ago. Is never far from faulting but is plainly progressing and legitimately takes her chances

Dominik Locqueneux presents 2 good runners here and while recent monte debutante LADY DES CHAMPS (11) beat LILIONALLY (9) on their respective monte debuts, it would be no surprise to see the tables turned. Despite being sanctioned on her recent racecourse debut, LITTLELOU MATIDY (2) would have finished in the money had she stayed in stride and should not be too hastily-judged. Ideally-entered at the limit of earnings, LOLITA DE MIELOUI (15) is reunited with Alexis Collette and a repeat of her Cabourg performance would see her finish close.
Unseen since finishing last of 7 in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F 2 months ago, and has no possible chance

Winner at Saint-Malo mid-August, before enduring some hard luck a fortnight later, LADY BECO (4) sports front pads this time and with Alexis Collette in the bike, can set the record straight. He will still be keeping a keen eye on the promising and padded LOLA DU CAMPUS (3) who is set to be reunited with Yoann Lebourgeois, and recent provincial winner LADY DU CEDRE (6) who steps up in category with front pads fitted and Franck Nivard reining. LORELEI DE REUX (7) has been showing her potential and moves up in category with a decent chance of trotting her way into the frame.

Having shown sufficient talent under harness, KING DE MAHEY (7) takes his opening public steps in the monte code and, freshly-configured with Benjamin Rochard on board, can impose at the first time of asking. KEL CHARME FOU (8) on the other hand, has solid references to fall back on and, in current condition, is not incapable of losing his maiden tag. KING HAUFOR (17) made a respectable ridden debut mid-August and should have a better chance this time. KENT SOYER (16) has frequently gone close this year under harness and switches codes with a realistic chance of finishing in the frame.
3rd on debut before being sanctioned twice, most recently faulting when well-supported in a 2800m Cholet Class G 8 days ago. This time however, is a rank outsider

Comfortable winner at Laval late last month, LARRY DU DOUBS (4) returns to racing right-handed, with hind pads fitted and Yoann Lebourgeois reining, and will be expected to confirm. LOOK D'HERMES (6), however, took his game to a new level earlier this month and makes his Caen debut with a good hand to play. LATHOS DE VIVOIN (5) has been a thorough professional so far and even though in better company this time, still looks a player. Clearly versatile and in fine fettle, LUIGI PAULCA (11) will once again be expected to be competitive for a place.

Most of the big-hitters are on the back line here, with the complicated but talented KORALIA DE CROUAY (11) sporting a new configuration and, with Benjamin Rochard reining this time, looks the one to beat. That said, KENZA SUPREME (13) has won 2 of her last 4, returns fresh from a spell, and even racing barefoot looks a player. Even though a handful at the best of times, KADIJA MESLOISE (16) has won 3 of the 5 races she has finished and, if behaved, will be no easy touch. KELLE NANA (4) reverts to a successful formula, is 25m better off, and will not be far from the action if Thomas Levesque can keep her trotting.

Moves back to the monte code after winning a 2400m Ploublay harness Class H 2 weeks ago. Has yet to make her mark in the discipline though and even with Adrien Lamy on board, will still have too much to do
Got off the mark, at 25th time of asking, in a 2800m Vire Class F 2.5 weeks ago. Beat JARKA DE BEYLEV (14) that day but looks more a minor place chance this time

Showed marked improvement on her Cabourg performance when 2nd of 8 in a 2400m Amiens Class F a fortnight ago. Hind shoes off this time and, already a course-and-distance winner, looks a leading contender

Last but one, behind JALISCA DE CHENU (16), in a 2775m Class E at Les Sables-d’Olonne 2 weeks ago. More competitively-shod on this occasion and, entrusted to Benjamin Rochard for first time, must not be underestimated

Back under the saddle after 3 solid harness performances, latterly 3rd of 7 in a 2550m Class E at Beaumont-de-Lomagne earlier this month. Has yet to make her mark in the code but benefits from having a capable rider in the irons

Useful under the saddle when applied, and returns to the code after coming 6th of 9 in a 2550m Dieppe harness Class F 12 days ago. Barefoot for the occasion, is an honest mare and, with some luck in running, can pick up a cheque

Debuts in the discipline after coming 6th of 8 finishers in a 2550m Gournay-en-Bray Class F 3 weeks ago. Is never far from surprising though and must be afforded significant respect

Capricious she may be but when focused JARKA DE BEYLEV (14) is a tough individual and has a good opportunity to finally get that maiden monkey off her back. She will still meet resistance from the hardy and reconfigured JOIE DE VIVRE (10) who has taken to the monte code like a duck to water, and the nicely-entered JAVA DES CHAMPS (17) who takes her first competitive monte steps with the useful Victor Saussaye on board. JISKAYA DE GREZ (6) encouraged with a fine run at Cabourg last time and, with form maintained, can again figure prominently.
Sanctioned in all 3 starts to date, most recently a 2800m VIre Class F last Monday, and can expect to have few friends

A relatively open event with 2 in particular standing out, and each forced to start on the back line. KYLEBEAU DU LUOT (10) has taken his game to a new level since starting to race barefoot and is plainly close to his race. KOUROUX (14) made up at Vire for his Cabourg blip and, re-configured with Benjamin Rochard at the helm, will not go down easily. Ideally-engaged on the front line, KORIOLIS DE ZIETTE (9) may not have been seen out for 2 months but he has solid right-handed references and can get straight back in the game. Rewarded with victory last time out, KINGSTON DES HAYES (8) steps up in category and deserves to take his chances.

Held back for this excellent entry after a convincing performance at La Rochelle, IGUAL BLUE (17) will be reined by Yoann Lebourgeois for the occasion and, runner-up in both of his Caen excursions, he looks the pick of the lot. He will be opposed though by the rejuvenated and reconfigured INCA (14) who has already won at the venue, and IN PETTO (16) who produced a reassuringly-good performance at Cherbourg a month ago. IRMINIO KILY (13) has been acquitting himself well over recent months and his handler takes over the reins this time.
