JAMAICA D'AURCY (9) impressed when winning a Class B mobile at this venue by 4L six days ago. Leading hope with an unexposed profile without shoes for a top yard. JOCONDE SIBEY (10) was racing without rear shoes for the first time when winning a Class C walk-up here last-time-out. Notable chance. It's tough to ignore JOLLY STAR JIEL (8) following back-to-back second-place finishes here (Class C and B). JALOUSIE DE L'ISLE (6) holds place claims.

This is probably INES DE FAEL (5) toughest task to date but she won a Class D mobile at Cabourg by 6L in October and perhaps wasn't seen to best effect when narrowly prevailing at Bordeaux after a break. The five-year-old reverts back to racing barefoot and can continue her ascendency with a fifth-straight success. IS MAGIC HAUFOR (9) disappointed last-time-out but won back-to-back Class E autostarts here prior. Can bounce back. IN LOVE AGAIN (12) could progress with shoes removed and shaped well when fourth behind the mobile at Cagnes-sur-Mer recently. IVANJICA DE LOU (7) cannot be discounted.
Third in a Class C European mounted event here last outing. Returns to racing unshod on all four feet and could find the frame up in standard.

A tough race to assess. DIMO D'OCCAGNES (11) has five wins from ten mounted starts and perhaps wasnt at his best when fourth (sent off favourite) behind a trio of these in the G3 Prix Djerid (2175m) here a fortnight ago. Selected to reverse the placings. FIFTY FIVE BOND (7) produced a good third in the driven G3 Prix du Forez at this track fifteen days back. Expected to go well with an excellent mounted strike-rate (ten wins from thirty starts). Surprise G3 Prix Djerid winner GABIANO (4) cannot be left out the equation and the solid CLEGS DES CHAMPS (16) should feature having finished an excellent third in the G2 Prix Paul Buquet two starts ago. CHALIMAR DE GUEZ (14) is considered back in the saddle for a key stable.

JABLONSKI (13) made it three wins from the last four outings when bouncing back to winning ways in a Class B walk-up at this venue last start. Top claims with more to come without rear shoes for the powerful Jean-Michael Bazire team. Stablemate JINGLE DU PONT (8) chased him home on that occasion when wearing the same shoeing combination and must be respected once more. Class A mobile fourth JASMIN BLANC (12) can go well on barefoot debut and JOYAU (11) is worth noting having filled the same spot behind two subsequent winners here latest.
3L fourth in the mobile G3 Prix Bellino Ii here a week ago. Overall course record a concern and this certainly looks tougher.

Defied market expectations to win the G2 Swc 4 Ans Q3 - Prix Charles Tiercelin here on her third French starts. Hard to know if she can back that up but she had plenty of these behind that days and must enter calculations.

Looked set to play a hand in the finish when DQ at the 200m marker in the G2 Swc 4 Ans Q3 - Prix Charles Tiercelin last outing. Solid third behind Juliet Papa Bravo in the G1 Swc 4 Ans Q2 - Prix Ready Cash prior. Major appeal racing without hind shoes for the first time.

A race that looks to revolve around the course and distance G2 Swc 4 Ans Q3 - Prix Charles Tiercelin three weeks ago. Shock winner DON'T SAY GAR (7) was having just his third French outing that day and although he must be respected others may be set the turn the tables. Preference is for JACK TONIC (12) who looked set to play a hand in the finish when DQ at the 200m post. Major appeal racing without hind shoes for the first time having finished a good third in the G1 Swc 4 Ans Q2 - Prix Ready Cash prior. Stablemate JULIET PAPA BRAVO (8) finished runner-up in the G1 Swc 4 Ans Q2 - Prix Ready Cash and also looks to bounce back from a DQ in the aforementioned G2 Prix Charles Tiercelin. The third in that event JUNINHO DRY (14) cannot be ignored and JAZZY PERRINE (15) is worth including.

Fourth in this race twelve months ago. Only given one run during the Vincennes Winter Meeting when eighth in the G2 Prix du Bourbonnais. Winner of the G1 Prix Rene Balliere and G1 Prix de l’Atlantique in 2022. Course and distance form would be a concern (0 from four) although perhaps not reflective of recent form. Chance.
Fourth in this race twelve months ago. Only given one run during the Vincennes Winter Meeting when eighth in the G2 Prix du Bourbonnais. Winner of the G1 Prix Rene Balliere and G1 Prix de l’Atlantique in 2022. Course and distance form would be a concern (0 from four) although perhaps not reflective of recent form. Chance.
A fascinating renewal of this historical feature event for the Vincennes Winter Meeting. In a race that looks increasingly difficult to separate a number of high-class horses slender preference goes the way of HORSY DREAM (2). The six-year-old arrives on a role following four-straight victories and looked good when winning the G2 Prix de Belgique two weeks ago. Proved he can compete against the older horses on that occasion and looks to hold solid credentials with shoes removed. Bjorn Goop is no stranger to winning this race in recent times and MONI VIKING (10) caught the eye when eighth here in shoes on preparation. Interesting contender back barefoot based on his Scandinavian form. HOOKER BERRY (9) won the G2 Prix de Bourbonnais in mid-December and is capable of better than when finishing fourth in the G2 Prix de Belgique. IDAO DE TILLARD (6) commands respect following recent wins in the G2 Prix de Croix and G1 Criterium Continental five weeks ago while DELIA DU POMMEREUX (16) is not dismissed.

FOUGUE DU DOLLAR (18) recent driven outing can be ignored. Claims with shoes removed back in the saddle having finished a sound fourth in the G3 Prix Yvonnick Bodin here prior. EROICO BELLO (17) is three from ten without shoes and produced a comfortable 2.25L success in a Class D European mounted event here last outing. Expected to measure up. FILOU D'ANJOU (14) is thirteen from twenty-seven in the saddle and looks interesting back in this sphere racing with front pads without rear shoes. EUROPA DE CHENU (11) finished tenth in the G1 Prix de Cornulier at this venue last start and will find this more suitable.
