Makes just 2nd appearance in this division after coming 5th of 10 in a 2750m Cabourg Class E 2.5 weeks ago. Takes on some battle-hardened elements here but nevertheless seems good enough to make first 5

Good 2nd at Enghien mid-July before finishing an oddly lacklustre 6th of 9 in a 2850m Mauquenchy amateurs Class G on 5 August. On second line here but can still play a prominent role

HOLD UP MESLOIS (4) held his own in a similar event here late last month and has the capacity to win a race of this nature. Jean-Philippe Bazire can still expect to encounter resistance from the similarly well-positioned amateur-debutant IBRAHIM DU RIB (3) who is back to racing with front pads, and IT'S DU QUENNE (9) who has never disappointed at Enghien. HARLEY DU CHERISAY (8) has been handed a wide draw but he benefits from a very good entry and, with Barbara Genet reining, can get back to doing what he does best.
Takes a dip in category after trotting 7th of 13 in a 2750m Cabourg Class D 2.5 weeks ago. Benjamin Rochard reining this time but others still preferred

Consistent for the most part and confirmed in this category, LANCELOT VENESI (2) lost out by the smallest of margins to LEADER DU LOISIR (9) in a similar event over longer here in late-June, but the former has a better spot behind the car and can turn the tables. Runner-up in good company at Cabourg mid-July, LIBRE PENSEUR MEEK (4) is well-placed to give this a good go. LADOTA PRIOR (6) pleased here last month and will be no pushover if Mathieu Mottier keeps her trotting.
Last but one on debut in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F 3.5 weeks ago. Has more to offer and in the hands of Damien Bonne is unlikely to disappoint

Should not be too hastily-judged for recent sanction in a 2375m DozuleClass F. Lacks reliability, not ability, and the engagement of a top jockey will only enhance her prospects

Unbeaten in 2 monte starts after having shown little aptitude for the harness game, LEMPICKA SEPT (7) makes her metropolitan debut on a hat-trick and, with hind pads fitted this time, can pull it off. LUCKY LADY D'AMOUR (8), on the other hand, is useful in both codes and her recent Enghien performance augurs well for her chances. Just â?¬5 from elimination, LUTTE DU LOGIS (9) races shod this time and the engagement of Paul Ploquin will do her prospects no disservice. LOLA DU LIVET (4) seems still to be rather green but her ability is not in question and, with Benjamin Rochard reining, is not to be underestimated.
Makes metropolitan debut on a 3-timer, most recently winning a 2700m Class E at La Capelle with authority. Has a shed-load of untapped potential and will be expected to make her presence felt at the business and of the race

A particularly capable filly that opened her account two months ago, L'ETOILE (4) is shod to preference this time, has been handed an excellent spot behind the car, and can win this. That said, she will still face considerable opposition from the similarly well-positioned, and freshly-configured, LUMIERE DU CHENE (3) who made up for her Enghien flop with victory at La Capelle, and LADY PRINCESS (1) who looks a decent candidate for the hat-trick. LADY D'ECAJEUL (8) is forced to start wide but she has consistency on her side and deserves to take her chances at this level.
Back in business over recent weeks, most recently winning a 2700m Class F at La Capelle 2.5 weeks ago. Has the inside line and, with it, every chance of remaining unbeaten with his Italian driver

Improving with every run, KAPOOR D'OLMEN (9) made no bones about opening his account a month ago and, even though starting on the 2nd line here, he races first-time barefoot and should just have the measure of the on-form KIRIO DE REUX (1) who is unbeaten with Gabi Gelormini reining. KIKLOVE ATOUT (5) has been knocking at the door over recent months and is unlikely to disappoint. KENTUCKY SAM (8) starts wide but reverts to a successful configuration and, with Yoann Lebourgeois reining, will be afforded every chance.
Has not finished out of the frame in last 12 starts, most recently winning over 2000m at Duindigt on 25 July. New to Enghien but in present condition is very easy to like

Very much an open affair this, however preference just goes to the hardy, and reconfigured, JILIKA DU MESLE (8) who was not the most fortunate here 3 weeks ago. William Forniglia will be justifiably wary of JIMOKA (12) who reverts to a previous formula in a bid to put her recent sanctions to bed. JUANA DE SEY (3) raced better last time than the result would suggest and must be afforded respect, while recent Mauquenchy winner JOA DE LA LOUTRIE (6) will be dangerous if still on the boil.
Not as sharp as she was earlier in the season, latterly 6th behind KLASSE DE BRUZEAU (13) in a Class D over 2150m here on 24 July. Not a priority but races first-time barefoot and is worth keeping an eye on

Decent 4th of 8 in a 2150m Vichy Class D earlier this month, but takes on a tougher bunch this time and will have limited chances

Disappointing since the start of the year, most recently sanctioned in a 2900m Clairefontaine Class D mid-July and, even with modified shoeing, can be passed over

2nd of 14 when preparing for this in a 2875m Class F here early last month. Goes barefoot on this occasion and, with form maintained, should put on a good showing

Has turned a corner since returning to racing barefoot, latterly making short work of a course-and-distance Class E late last month. Is unbeaten with Mathieu Mottier and has the capacity to keep their successful relationship going

Last of 11 when prepping for this in a Class D over 2150m here late last month. Has bags of ability and, already a winner at the venue, will be no easy touch

A remarkable competitor that pulled off the 3-timer at Cabourg a fortnight ago, KRAKANTE (14) makes her Paris debut with every chance of making it a victorious one. Excellent when barefoot and recently a winner under these conditions, KINDY DU VIVIER (15) enjoys a good entry and looks a marginally better choice than the hat-trick-seeking KOMERE DE CORDAY (12) who also imposed at Enghien last time out. Nicely-in at the limit of earnings, KENTUCKY VALLEY (16) races barefoot for the first time, with Gabi Gelormini reining.
Barring his Meslay mis-step, has been hard to fault, latterly 2nd of 9 in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F on 5 August. Won in this configuration here late-June and once again looks a serious proposition

Has done nothing but progress lately, most recently winning a 2750m Cabourg Class F, in good order, a fortnight ago. Unlikely to repeat but races barefoot and can hold his own

Won 2 in a row before trotting 4th to IGGY DE FLORANGE (1) in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F on 5 August. Takes on better this time but will still have her supporters

Not once out of the first 5 in 3 starts under the saddle, HUMOUR FESTIF (3) left a very good impression at Argentan last month and if still on the boil, will be preferred to the consistent IGGY DE FLORANGE (1) who made up at Mauquenchy for his Meslay sanction, and a barefoot HAUTENTICA (7) who is confirmed here in the other code.
