Got off the mark at Reims before coming 3rd of 10 finishers, some distance behind KEILA TREMBLADAISE (10), in a Class F over course and distance on 6 December, but can still pick up some prizemoney

Made it 4 sanctions in a row when faulting in a Class E over course and distance 3 weeks ago. Has yet to finish a monte race unscathed but has been reconfigured, will be partnered by Alexis Collette, and must be respected

6th of 7 when prepping for this in a 2800m Pontchateau harness Class F a week ago. Barefoot this time and although not a contender, is still worth retaining for a minor place payout

Unraced since finishing 6th of 8 in a Class D under these conditions 2 months ago. Is barefoot for re-entry though and with some luck in running, can get a look-in

5th of 14 to KAVIASE (12) on monte debut before running 8th of 11 in a harness Class E under these conditions 3 weeks ago, and is unlikely to disturb the status quo

KAVIASE (12) made no bones about getting off the mark at the first time of asking under the saddle and a similar effort would see her double up. Leading the opposition, KEILA TREMBLADAISE (10) has turned a corner lately and should again finish close, while KABRELLA (2) will be dangerous if Andrea Roussel manages to keep her trotting. Yet to disappoint in the day's configuration, KELLY CHALEONNAISE (11) goes well for Eric Raffin who will be determined to improve on last month's course-and-distance performance.
Has improved with every run recently, lastly 4th of 8 in a 3000m Nantes Class G a fortnight ago, but has been handed a stiff task this time

In the frame in last 2, latterly 3rd of 12 in a 2400m Amiens Class E 3 weeks ago. Is not far off losing her maiden tag and the new configuration can make all the difference

After a much-needed return run at Le Mans a fortnight ago, LADY STARLIGHT (3) races padded for her Vincennes bow and considering the potential she has shown, the race is hers for the taking. LUNA HAUFOR (9) moves up a class after winning at Laval and Damien Bonne takes over in the bike. LA NUIT JE MENS (8) has been progressing nicely and, first-time padded, can finish close. LOKIE KADESH (11) was very unlucky here earlier in the month and Philippe Daugeard will be motivated to set the record straight.
Useful sort but disappointing in last 3, latterly sanctioned in a 2200m Class D here 9 days ago, and must get his house in order

An absolute dynamo when barefoot and focused, GOUTIER CELESTE (11) was beaten only by the good Heursitique here a fortnight ago and should take all the beating this time. Nicely-entered here, FINGER DE RODREY (17) makes a first barefoot start for his new trainer and the engagement of Paul Ploquin speaks volumes. FEVE DE BEYLEV (16) is barefoot following her conditioner and has a reasonable chance of finishing close. FITZY DE VIVE (8) left a good impression last time under the saddle and Benjamin Rochard gets the nod.
Sanctioned in Prix du Bourbonnais 3 weeks ago. Showed her form though and can make first 5 if Leo Abrivard manages to keep her focused

Declared fit after found to be suffering from a blood condition, IDAO DE TILLARD (6) may not be as sharp as he was this time last year but he returns to a trip he particularly appreciates and may just have the edge over GO ON BOY (5) who has been very hard to knock this term. DON FANUCCI ZET (2) showed his form in the race of reference, boasts excellent speed, and the draw will only enhance his chances. Like Romain Derieux's horse, ALWAYS EK (13) has not raced since the Gran Premio Delle Nazioni at San Siro late-October but is barefoot for his return to France and can play a prominent part if his Scandinavian driver positions him early.
Spirited but useful sort that reassured in a 2100m Class D here 3.5 weeks ago when 2nd of 14. In this company though will have his work cut out

In the frame in all 4 starts in his current configuration, KWARTZ SIBEY (11) missed out by little here earlier in the month, to a horse that has since gone on to confirm, and deserves to have his moment in the sun before 2024 ends. Louis Baudouin will still be keeping a keen eye the tricky but talented KOZIELLO DE LOU (13) who returns to racing barefoot, and KAMIL VAN HALBEEK (7) who will be out to turn the tables on KELMEC (14) who headed him here 2 months ago.
Did not enjoy the best of trips before being sanctioned, when full of running, in a 2100m Class E here on 11 December. If focused though, can make a big splash

Should not be condemned for finishing 8th of 13 in a 2700m Class E here 3.5 weeks ago. Has significant ability, enjoys a superb entry, and Romain Congard will be eager to make hay

At the top of her game for a number of months, JARYCA (3) came close to imposing here earlier in the month and, clearly a fan of the main track, can bring home the bacon this time. She will still be opposed by JOKE DE CHENU (8) who left a very good impression here last time out, and JALENZA DU BOCAGE (1) who was going good-guns before faulting here 2.5 weeks ago. Sanctioned more often than not these days, JASMINE DE GREZ (15) is nevertheless very capable when applied, as she showed here recently, and must be respected.
Capable Norwegian type making first appearance since running 6th of 9 over 2140m in Bjerke on 1 October. Barefoot but will be race-rusty

It has taken the capricious JEROCASH DE PHYT'S (7) some time to come to hand this term but he showed his form here last month and with Yoann Lebourgeois back in the bike, can win his first race for 18 months. That said, he will be taking on the tough Swedish NIGHT ART (12) who benefits from a superb entry, and JOTUNN DU DOME (10) who won over course and distance 2 months ago. DAYAK (ITY) (6) has a race under his belt since the spell and drops sufficiently in class to be considered a player.
Won on re-entry early last month, easily securing a 2175m Class D here. Untried at this distance but has the class to bring the fight to LAST MAN (10)

Excellent when racing with 4 pads, LAST MAN (10) may not have been seen out for over 2 months but Mathieu Mottier's yard is in cracking form and can keep his course-and-distance record intact. He is still going to face stiff resistance from the promising LORD DU GERS (1) who sports hind pads for the first time, and LOUSTIC DE SALOMAX (3) who has never failed to deliver over the main track. Last of 5 on last month's return to competition, LE SAP (8) has been reconfigured and will be no soft touch.

Disqualified from 2nd place on his ridden debut here earlier in the month, LORD SMART (10) will be fitted with front pads this time and can set the record straight. He is still going to encounter a padded LIVE MY DREAM (5) who has similarly shown significant potential, and the wonderfully-engaged, and reconfigured, LOVE ME DO MESLOIS (14) who takes to the main track after having twice pleased over the inner course. LUKOMEDES (2) cannot boast the cleanest of formcards but he will be fully-padded for his main-track bow.
