Last of 12 on re-entry in a 2650m Pornichet Class E on 21 August. Has a lot going for her here, including a good spot in front, and can wrap this up if Matthieu Abrivard keeps her focused

Has not been seen out since finishing last but one in a 3000m Chateaubriant Class E in early-July. Goes well for Mathieu Mottier though, is shod to preference, and from the 5-spot will not be far from the action

Runner-up in 2 before coming 12th of 14 behind KALINE DE VIRE (4) in a 2850m Feurs Class G 2.5 weeks ago. Sports 4 pads for the occasion though and is unlikely to play an active role

As talented as she is capricious, KEMILLA DE BRION (2) is barefoot following her Pornichet comeback and, given the entry, must be considered a leading contender. The versatile KOKINE BECO (1) is significantly more reliable and David Thomain will be eager to right his mare's Vincennes clinker. KALINE DE VIRE (4) should find conditions more to her liking this time and in current condition is easy to fancy for a podium place. KYRA D'ESSARTS (7) has a pair of return runs in her and, barefoot for her first objective of the autumn, looks competitively well in.
Won 2 of last 3, latterly a 2725m Graignes Class F in late-August. Won his only start here and the nature of his latest performance augurs well for his chances

Difficult to fault at present, most recently winning a 2650m Class F at Les Sables-d'Olonne 3 weeks ago. Would have preferred a better draw but will still be competitive for a place in the frame

KERRO DE HOUELLE (2) left a very good impression on just his second start following a 6 months' break, and with Eric Raffin reining can open his 2025 account. KOOPER (4) goes particularly well for David Thomain and is ideally-situated on the front line. A model of consistency, KA DEUX TONIQUE (11) returned to the winners' circle at Les Sables-d'Olonne and even though on the back line here has yet to disappoint for his Italian driver. KIT ANGOT (3) is plainly in rude health and it is just a matter of time before he comes good again.
Last but one, on first start since May 2023, in a 2875m Meslay-du-Maine Class E a fortnight ago and is going to need another run

A superb campaigner that has won 3 of his last 4 starts, JIM PERRINE (14) is ideally-engaged here and with form maintained can confirm his latest course-and-distance victory. He should still encounter resistance from JET EXPRESS (11) who has been knocking at the door, and JUST DE L'OISON (7) who is hard to fault when focused. Reconfigured following a wonderful effort in a Gr.3 on turf, JOYCE DELTO (6) will have her chances.

Beaten just once in 8 starts in the day's configuration, JIM D'ALOUETTE (7) completed the 2nd hat-trick of his career just last month and is going to take all the beating. Leading the opposition is JAZZY FLIGNY (9) who was eye-catching at Vincennes earlier in the month, and JUST FOR FUN (6) who will not be too far off the mark if he replicates his penultimate performance. Back on a hard surface, JAGERBOMB (1) boasts a terrific Laval record and is unlikely to let the side down.

Unlucky here mid-month, LOOK D'AIMTE (8) has otherwise been in fine shape and with Eric Raffin reining this time can set the record straight. That being said, LATINO DU LUPIN (6) took his game to a new level over the summer and looks the main threat. Barefoot for her first objective of the autumn, LEA GIBUS (10) races barefoot this time and with Alexandre Abrivard at the helm, will not go down easily. Reconfigured for the occasion, LERMINE D'OLIVERIE (16) benefits from a terrific entry and on good behaviour could start to get back in the game.

Decent winner in May first time out, MISS MAGIQUE (1) makes her first start since but will have been prepared for this and can maintain a perfect record. She will still come under pressure from the likes of MAGIE D'ORME (8) who has been knocking at the door, and the useful MERRY DE MALABRY (16) who races left-handed for the first time. MOON DES ARRIS (9) makes her first appearance for a couple of months and will be no pushover if Arthur Rebeche keeps her trotting.

Unopposed winner on his debut over course and distance a month ago, MARIO DE LA VALLEE (18) returns to the venue with a realistic shot at the double. Mathieu Mottier will be in the saddle of MILES DAVIS WIND (7) whose return to competition has been much-anticipated. MAESTRIA DU PLAIN (3) qualified well under harness in May and the engagement of Alexandre Abrivard stands her in good stead. MIRAGE BOY (16) makes his monte bow with Eric Raffin in the irons and will be no easy touch.
Qualified smartly in July before being eliminated in a 2725m Lisieux Class E on 13 September. Showed her form though and has a lot to contribute if Gwenn Junod assures her initial strides

While this may be something of a lottery, it is always interesting to see the development of the juvenile division. NASHVILLE BLUE (1) missed the break on her recent debut after having pleased in her July qualification and if applied can get off the mark. Opposition takes the form of untried elements NORMANDIE MADRIK (10), a well-bred sort that will be partnered by Eric Raffin, NATACHA CASTEL (11) who hails from Mathieu Mottier's in-form stable, and NANA DU LEVANT (8) whose June qualification will not have gone unnoticed.
