Winner under these conditions when barefoot this time last year, the terrifically-engaged HASARD D'ERABLE (15) looks eminently capable of winning a race of this nature. He will still face considerable opposition from HARISON DU PLESSIS (8) who has won 3 of his last 4, and the complicated but handy HOVE PONT VAUTIER (1) who sports front pads for the first time. HAITIAN FIGHT SONG (10) has been knocking at the door and races barefoot for the occasion.
Reunited with Eric Raffin after coming 4th of 8 in a 2700m Graignes Class B on 11 November. Is competitively well-in here and can kickstart his winter campaign. Chance

Superior winner on debut before giving a good account over the main-track, MAGIC LOVE (7) should find these conditions to his liking and even though drawn wide, can nevertheless open his metropolitan account. That being said, MARQUIS D'ENFER (1) has proven references, in good company, here and despite starting on the inside looks eminently capable of winning a race of this nature. MEMPHIS ELLIS (3) has bags of potential and is ideally-positioned to prove the point.
Honourable but unthreatening 4th of 6 finishers to LEA DE FROULAY (11) in a 2175m Class D here 2 weeks ago. Is confirmed under these conditions but represents a minor place chance at best

The reinvigorated and freshly-padded, LACINIA (12), and LEA DE FROULAY (11), who has been transformed since starting to raced with pads, put on an excellent show here earlier in the month and while both are clearly in with a shout, preference just goes to Eric Raffin's filly. Sporting 4 pads for the first time, LIO RENKA (9) has been afforded ample time to come on for her good re-entry run. LUPINE DIESCHOOT (6) steps up in category following a victorious ridden debut but still looks thoroughly up to the task.

Sent for a rest after scoring at Parilly, LE DOLLAR MACKER (11) got straight back down to business on re-entry and, with the champion driver in the bike, can repeat. LOVER STILL (12) has taken his game to a new level over recent months and returns to racing with 4 pads fitted. Philippe Allaire's progressive LISTER VEDAQUAIS (9) is proven over track and trip and will be no easy touch, and neither should LASKO DES BROUSSES (7) who has been entrusted to JMB for the occasion.

HALFA (7) was simply dynamic over 2700m here earlier in the month and looks a better choice than GALA D'URFIST (8) even though Franck Leblanc's mare ran 3rd under these conditions late last month. 3rd under harness before coming 2nd over 2175m here recently, HANNAH (1) once again looks competitive. HAVE SEVEN (5) held his own here last time and can finish close if Estelle Croisic keeps him focused.

Runner-up at Caen before encountering traffic problems here next time, KISS ME BEJI (7) nevertheless clearly showed her form and can win this if Eric Raffin keeps her out of trouble. The nicely-entered KELOWA STARDUST (16) was similarly very unlucky last time and will also have her chances if still on the boil. KERRA UP STAR (1) will have come on for her encouraging comeback run and, barefoot this time, is unlikely to disappoint. The dependable KAPELLA DAIRPET (6) sports a new configuration and can make the frame this time.

Makes harness debut after running 8th of 9 in a monte Class E over course and distance a month ago. Here for a change of scenery and poses no danger
Ran 4th of 10 to KIFF L'OSEILLE (5) on 25 November before winning a 3000m Nantes Class E a fortnight ago and returns to Vincennes with a lot to offer

Easy winner of a Class E over course and distance on 25 November. Goes barefoot again and can expect the lion's share of support

Makes first start since being sanctioned in a monte Class D over track and trip last August. Front pads fitted and will need the outing

Pleased over 2850m prior to finishing 7th in race of reference. Front pads fitted and will need to show marked improvement

Won 2 in a row before finishing last but one behind KOWEIT DE CHENU (9) in a Class E under these conditions 2.5 weeks ago [effectively pulled-up]. Hind shoes off this time though and will be worth a punt

Beat a number of these when 2nd of 11 finishers in a Class E under these conditions 2.5 weeks ago. Beaten only by a very good horse that day and will be expected to bring the fight to KIFF L'OSEILLE (5)

Did not enjoy the best of trips when 9th of 11 in a 2850m Class D here late-November. Entrusted to Yoann Lebourgeois and should be able to finish in the mix this time

2nd of 12 in a 2950m Toulouse Class E a month ago. Is plainly in excellent condition and even though unconfirmed racing clockwise, is still worth retaining

7th of 12 when being conditioned in a Class D over track and trip on 8 November. Hind pads fitted for first time and, if fully-fit, can spice things up

9th of 14, on return to competition, in a 2100m Class D here a fortnight ago. Races first-time barefoot but still not an obvious choice

Faithful for the most part and latterly 4th of 11 finishers behind KOWEIT DE CHENU (9) in a Class E under these conditions 2.5 weeks ago. Will not be available at 100/1 this time but is unlikely to be as competitive either

Made up for a pair of sanctions when victorious in a 2200m Class E here on 12 November. Has had ample time to get back in shape and looks competitive for a place on the podium

A classy element, KIFF L'OSEILLE (5) made short work of his first winter objective and, barefoot again, can double up. 4th to him that day before winning at Nantes, KENDRICK (4) sports a new configuration and looks a serious proposition, but he may first have to see off the in-form KOWEIT DE CHENU (9) who has been freshly-reconfigured. Well-entered, and returning to the track after winning over the inner course last month, KROSS FINGERS (16) will have a lot to contribute if he stays in stride.
Secured the hat-trick when dominating a 2725m Graignes Class E 3.5 weeks ago. Pitted against better this time but still looks a serious player

Pleasantly surprised at La Capelle before running an unlucky 7th of 10 behind IRMYLA DE SOMMAIRE (8) in a 2100m Class D here on 2 December. Is plainly in fine fettle and will be expected to contest the finish this time

Has 2 runs in her since the summer break, latterly last but one behind IRMYLA DE SOMMAIRE (8) in a 2100m Class D here on 2 December. Has placed just twice in 5 main-track starts and can be ruled out

Out of sorts here on 25 November when last of 12 behind INKY PERRINE (10) in a Class D over course and distance. Benjamin Rochard is back in the bike though and will be keen to put things right

Ran 4th at La Capelle prior to finishing 6th of 10 behind IRMYLA DE SOMMAIRE (8) in a 2100m Class D here on 2 December. Padded all-around this time but still looks an outsider

Back under harness after having been quickly sanctioned in a 2850m monte Class D here last week, and recent numbers do nothing to inspire confidence

3rd of 9 despite traffic problems in a 2100m Class here early this month. Has not got her nose in front of since January but is still good enough to pick up some prizemoney

8th of 9 when being prepared for this in a 2850m Class E here 10 days ago. Won last time in the day's configuration and given her liking for the main track, is not about to disappoint

Surprise 4th of 12 in a Class D over track and trip on 25 November. Never easy to gauge but a similar effort would see her finish in the mix

Left a good impression under the saddle before coming 4th of 10, a place behind IRMYLA DE SOMMAIRE (8), in a 2100m Class D here on 2 December. Has nothing to prove at this level and has already won 3 times for her driver

Drops in category after running 6th of 12 behind INKY PERRINE (10) in a Class D over course and distance on 25 November, but still seems to have too much to do

Has 2 runs under her belt, latterly last of 9 behind ICONE D'ERABLE (9) in a 2850m Class E here 10 days ago. Hard to knock when barefoot and the engagement of JMB can make all the difference

A serious mare in both disciplines, ILLUSIVE GLORY (13) will be fully-fit by now and, twice a winner under these conditions, she races barefoot for her first goal of the winter and with Jean-Michel Bazire in the bike, looks a marginally better bet than the in-form IBANQUE LEBEL (2) who was denied a run here early this month. 4th on that occasion, IDOLE DE RETZ (11) will be reined by Eric Raffin this time and her chances are not to be sniffed at. IDREAMIS (1) has not been seen here since February but returns on a 4-timer and although unlikely to pull it off, can still finish thereabouts.
