Seven times a winner of eight starts under the saddle (9) GRACE DE FAEL most recently won the Gr.3 Prix Urgent in style and looks well on course for a tilt at the Prix de Vincennes in a fortnight's time. Matthieu Abrivard will unsurprisingly be wary of (11) GEE who flew up in the Gr.2 Prix de Basly over course and distance on her last appearance under the saddle. (6) GLADYS DES PLAINES and (8) GANGSTER DU WALLON trotted second and third respectively behind the selection last time and can again figure prominently.
Moderate sort with just one race in him since the break and unlikely to spring any surprises

Unraced since blowing away the opposition in the UET final at Vermo early September (10) FACE TIME BOURBON has freshness on his side and will be hard to oppose. Closest rival to him will be Criterium des 4 Ans winner (9) FALCAO DE LAURMA who has the Criterium Continental on his agenda. (7) FAKIR DU LORAULT made no bones about securing the Gr.3 Prix de Chenonceaux a fortnight ago and steps back up in class with a good hand to play. (2) FIFTY BLACK is simply dynamic when unshod all four and the nature of his recent Gr.3 success bodes well for his chances.
Unplaced in two after having imposed over longer here during the autumn. Has no references over 2100m but with the inside line can get a look in

(9) BRYSSEL may not be ideally drawn here but he has never failed to deliver under these conditions and looks to have every chance of complementing his recent victory over longer. The Vincennes-loving (5) CANULAR will be fully fit following the layoff and from the 5-spot looks a serious proposition. Winner of a Class D over course and distance last month (13) CALIU DES BOSC returns to the venue on a hat-trick and can give this a good go. (4) CASTING DE CHENU is ideally positioned on the front line and if fully fit will not be far off the mark. (2) BIG HEADACHE is no star but under these conditions looks competitively well in.
Back in business following a lean patch. Takes on some good horses here but in current form is hard to ignore

A veritable steamroller when focused (9) EMPIRE has been handed a wide draw but he gets a Bjorn Goop drive for his French debut and can get straight down to business. That being said (3) GU D'HERIPRE has already won three times here and is significantly better positioned behind the car. The Italian (7) ALCIDE ROC has taken a liking to Vincennes and is confirmed both at this level and over course and distance. (1) GELATI CUT has emerged from the dark tunnel he was in and looks a decent place chance.
Good Italian import but unplaced in both since crossing the Alps. Returns after a spell and with shoes on can be passed over

After an excellent Vincennes debut three weeks ago (10) CALINA went close in a fast time over course and distance six days later and can finally get that maiden monkey off her back. The superb (9) VIOLETTO JET did not have the best of trips on that occasion and should logically go closer this time around. Stablemate to the selection (6) GHAZI B.R. has not been acquitting himself as expected lately but JMB has high hopes for him and it is only a matter of time. (3) VIPERA KILLER GAR has been in cracking form since the summer and can challenge for a place on the podium.

An excellent servant in this branch of the business (11) CROSSFIRE made a very good re-entry behind (10) CELESTE DRY at Mauquenchy last month and with hind shoes off this time can turn the tables. Seldom seen under the saddle (8) CHACHA DE GONTIER nevertheless made a fine return to the code when fourth that day and going barefoot this time looks more competitive but may first have to see off (7) CADET who most recently imposed at a superior level.

A very different horse when unshod (12) FITZROY went into his summer break on a three timer and after a much-needed freshener goes barefoot for his first objective of the winter and may just have the edge over the in-form (10) FILOU STAR who just got off the mark ten days ago. (6) FEU D'AZUR hails from a stable going well and latterly made a fine re-entry at La Capelle. (4) FRACASSANT is never far from faulting but showed his form at Cabourg recently and with stride in check can get in on the action. (15) FAN QUICK RUSH is no champion but will be fully fit by now and going barefoot for the occasion will do him no disservice.

Regularly indisciplined he may be but (7) FIFTY FIVE BOND has talent to burn. He won comfortably over course and distance eight days ago and can repeat. (4) FRANCOIS DI SCORZA got back in the game with a good second to him that day and with front shoes off again is expected to confirm. (6) FLEURON D'IROISE gave a gritty account to defy his odds under under harness last weekend and is again competitive for a place in the frame. (1) FINGER DE RODREY would have finished fourth to the selection last time had he not faulted and Eric Raffin maintaining faith must be taken as a positive sign.
