Has done nothing but improve since the autumn, most recently securing a Class F over 2850m here a month ago. Trainer could not have hoped for a better entry and will be determined to capitalise. Place prospect

Revitalised since returning to racing with pads fitted, KART HAUFOR (14) just missed out on the hat-trick here last month, but David Thomain will be legitimately confident of setting the record straight. KALISCO PLANCHETTE (2) has twice finished close to her recently and Alexandre Abrivard steps in for the injured Paul Ploquin. Nicely-engaged and clearly at the top of his game, KESSERO (16) steps back up in category with every chance of making the frame once again. Similarly well-entered, KANEM (15) sports a fresh formula after having reassured here 3 weeks ago.
Has not put a foot out of line under the saddle this term. Prepped under harness, will be barefoot this time, and looks a serious proposition

A fine servant in this branch of the business, LASKO DES BROUSSES (8) drops back in category after running 5th in a Gr.3 here and, even though new to 2175m, still looks capable of securing this. Damien Bonne will still want to keep an eye on the in-form KENTUCKY IDEAL (7) who has twice finished 2nd in 3 starts over course and distance, and the good LE PRIEURE (1) who returns to racing barefoot after being conditioned under harness here in mid-January. LOVISSIME (10) has won twice in 3 starts under these conditions and faces her first objective of the winter with front shoes off and a good hand to play.

Back at a more suitable distance after running 5th in 2700m Gr.2 Prix Roquepine last weekend. Is unlikely to lose her maiden tag against the colts but can nevertheless compete for a place in the picture

A fine colt with a bright future, NOT THIS TIME (3) routed the opposition over longer here 3 weeks ago and even over this shorter trip still looks the one to beat. He will be opposed though by a reconfigured NAT KING COLE (6) who held his own in a Gr.2 here last weekend, and NUAGE DE BEAUCAMPS (8) who was by no means disgraced in the Gr.2 Prix Maurice de Gheest. Third in the Gr.2 Prix Gelinotte over course and distance a month back, NOELA JOSSELYN (9) must be afforded respect.
Has shown decent aptitude for the ridden discipline but will need to show improvement on her 4th place behind KAPAULA DE L'EPINE (7) in Gr.3 Prix Leon Tacquet on 3 January

Facile winner of the Gr.2 Prix Reynolds over course and distance in November, IT'S A DOLLARMAKER (11) failed to confirm when hanging in the Prix de Cornulier a fortnight ago. Benjamin Rochard takes over in the saddle and can win this if he manages to keep his charge trotting in a straight line. Third that day, the excellent JEROBOAM D'ERABLE (9) will be expected to contest the finish, as will the classy INA DU RIB (14) who won this race 12 months ago. IDEALE DU CHENE (15) has twice run 2nd in this race and will be expected to show marked improvement on her Cornulier result. JEAN BALTHAZAR (12) finished a place ahead of her 2 weeks ago, ran 3rd in this race in 2025, and is unlikely to disappoint.

Winner in Bordeaux in early-December before being eliminated when full of running here in mid-January, GUMP DU PONCELET (11) should be able to wrap this up if he keeps trotting. HAJIME (10) comes here on a hat-trick though and being entrusted to Mathieu Mottier will do his chances no disservice. On paper, GUCCI DE BARB (16) may not be an obvious choice but he benefits from a terrific entry and will be shod to preference. Similarly well-engaged, HYDROMEL (15) beat a number of these last time and can challenge for a spot on the podium.

Back to racing competitively-shod after his fine Vincennes introduction in December, GOELICHER ST (3) takes a dip in category and it would be no surprise to see him win this. That being said, MAMBO DRY (9) comes here on a hat-trick, and MELI MELO DE CHENU (7) showed his form under the snow here early last month. Another talented transalpine raider, GOLD MAIL (5) dominated a Class D here earlier in the week and must be taken at face value.

Consistently performant in his current configuration, IZIJAL (15) has twice run 3rd over course and distance this winter; he has pulled a rough number here but with Alexandre Abrivard in the bike can open his 2026 account. They will still feel the heat from the better-positioned IRRATI DUEM (5) who makes his Vincennes debut in fine fettle, and INEDIT DU PAVILLON (1) who has been showing his form in the provinces. Barefoot this time after having prepped in the amateur division, IDEAL MOSSA (2) will not be far off the mark if Jonathan Vanmeerbeck keeps him focused.

Showed considerable improvement when 4th in a Class D over course and distance on 24 December. Placed under these conditions earlier in the winter meeting and Francois Lagadeuc may just have picked up a winning spare drive

Showed improvement when 5th in a Class D over course and distance 8 days ago. Is not a priority but, in similar form, can repeat

Won 2 of 4 prior to faulting in a Class D over track and trip 8 days ago. Must not be condemned and should be brought back into the fold. Chance

Takes a notable drop in category after finishing a flattering 5th in a Class A over 2175m on 21 December. Goes barefoot for the first time though and cannot be discounted

Has yet to reach the level she attained last spring. Held her own though here in early-December and Alexandre Abrivard gets the nod this time

Complicated type returning to Paris after a respectable run in Bordeaux, but still has too much to do

Makes the long trip to Paris after having enjoyed a good run of form on the Riviera. Is barefoot for the occasion and the Franck Nivard-factor cannot be ignored

Eliminated as often as not but is nevertheless in good shape. Is competitively-shod this time and can play a prominent role if her driver keeps her focused

Impressive more than once since the autumn, MYSTIC DES FORGES (4) gave a very good account under these conditions on Christmas Eve, races competitively-shod for the first time, and will have a legitimate claim on the race. Francois Lagadeuc will still be wary though of the promising MARIYA HAUFOR (6) who returns to racing shod after losing her action here last weekend, and a similarly-configured MAIWENN D'AVEL (1) who ran 2nd to her on Christmas Day. Nicely-entered here, sporting front pads, and entrusted to Yoann Lebourgeois, MALINE DES ARRIS (11) comes here fresh and will justifiably generate interest.
Failed to confirm Gournay-en-Bray performance when eliminated in 22 January race of reference. Has ample ability though and, with application, can play a small role

Would have finished 4th in a 2175m Class E here on 22 January had she stayed in stride. Trainer in the bike this time but still looks a serious player

Back to Paris after running a respectable 5th in a Mauquenchy Class E last Monday. Is barefoot this time but in this company will need to find more

Put on quite the show here on 22 January before losing her action 100m out, but can more than make amends if her driver keeps her trotting. Claim

Not the easiest of horses to use but ran close 2nd in a Saint-Brieuc Class E on 23 January and, barefoot this time, is unlikely to disappoint

3rd, a place ahead of MOONSTAR JYL (4), in a 2725m Graignes Class F in late-December. Has yet to lose her maiden tag after 22 starts but is competitively-shod this time and can again contest a place in the frame

Disappointing in last 2, most recently 6th of 7 behind MISS MAGIQUE (7) at Saint-Brieuc, and even though reconfigured still looks an outsider

Showed a much-improved side when 4th in a Mauquenchy Class F 11 days ago. Front shoes off for the first time but can expect to find the going tough

Had the tricky MOONSTAR JYL (4) kept her action together here late last month she could well have opened her Vincennes account. Benjamin Rochard takes over for the injured Paul Ploquin and looks set to be reining the favourite. He will still be mindful of a freshly-barefoot MISS MAGIQUE (7) who showed a different side to herself at Saint-Brieuc, and the progressive MADAME DELO (2) who showed her form despite being eliminated here ten days ago. MALINE DE JED (8) had the measure of the favourite at Graignes last time out and, unshod-behind on this occasion, must be taken more seriously.
