Like a horse reborn since coming to Paris this autumn (14) EMILIANO ZAPATA returns to the venue after a good breather following his exertions over the long course last month and can make his short-track debut a winning one. Thomain can nevertheless expect to feel some heat from (4) ESPOIR DU NOYER whose latest Maure performance did not go unnoticed. (9) EL POPOF has good references when barefoot and can start to get back in the game. (11) EMIR PETTEVINIERE has been knocking at the door lately and can again make the frame. (6) EMINENT D'ORGERES scored last time when focused and barefoot and will have his supporters.
Very effective when focused and showed her form at Laval. Unbeaten in two over the trip and looks a player

Not the easiest of races to handicap this but a tentative nod must go to the well-positioned (4) FIBULE DU VIVIER who won a claimer over course and distance early last month. (7) FLANELLE DE LOIRON is no slouch on a good day and the dip in category can only work in her favour. Useful when applied and proven on the Vincennes surface (1) FRONT LINE starts on the inside and on good behaviour will have a lot to offer. Solid in both starts under these conditions (3) FABELLA GALAA has an excellent spot behind the car and can go far if she assures her initial strides.
Moderate mare that has not finished closer than 4th in as many races over track and trip. Unseen for three months and not a priority

Winner over course and distance earlier in the autumn (10) DWELLING HEIGHTS most recently failed to fire here but she is reunited with Franck Nivard for whom she has never disappointed and can win this. (12) DESIREE DES LANDES was surprisingly not at her best that day but has otherwise been in cracking form and can be backed with absolute confidence. Fourth-placed (13) DAME DU RIL goes barefoot again and can make the frame this time. Somewhat surprisingly (4) DOLLY DU QUESNE and (5) DOTKA DE LOIRON trotted second and third on that occasion and will garner more support this time around.

Although untried in France (3) BEAUTIFUL COLIBRI is unbeaten in her native Italy and if Philippe Allaire lines her up here she must be in with a realistic chance of staying unbeaten. She is unlikely to have it all her own way though given how well (12) HIRONDELLE SIBEY imposed over course and distance earlier this month. (6) HAVANAISE lost her action when full of running that day but with application can make amends and go close. Like the selection (3) BEAUTIFUL COLIBRI has yet to bested at home and even though facing some tough fillies here she still looks up to the task.
Complicated but has very good aptitude for the game. Lost his action here last week but on better behaviour can apply the pressure on (9) FLASH DU BIWETZ

Following two good efforts in somewhat better company (9) FLASH DU BIWETZ drops back down the class ladder and looks thoroughly capable of imposing this time. (1) FESTIVAL JENILOU is never far from losing his action but has talent to burn and with application can apply the pressure. Just once out of the frame in six starts under the saddle (10) FRIMEUR DU START will be at peak fitness now after his spell and looks similarly competitive. The delicate but capable (7) FRANCOIS DI SCORZA has two races under his belt and with front shoes off for the first time will not be far off the mark.
Placed just once in ten and very disappointing since the break. Nivard at the helm but still not an obvious choice

Unbeaten in three starts in the claiming category (9) GIPSY MADRIK drops back in class after a trio of modest efforts in good company and should be able to wrap this up. (11) GREAT ZEUS is considerably better than recent form would suggest and even from the second line looks dangerous. (5) GINGER MADRIK has won two of three at this level including over course and distance and looks competitive for a spot on the podium. (7) GALI GAME gave a reassuringly good account in a Saint-Galmier Class D last time out and after having had time to freshen up returns to the capital with a decent hand to play.

Simply superb since her late-July debut (6) GUINESS D'HERFRAIE gave a fine account earlier in the month on her first start here. Her form is on the way up and from the front line can impose. That being said she is sure to face opposition from (9) GRAVURE GEMA who returned to the winners' enclosure here last time out. The capable (11) GREAT TIGRESS endured some bad luck on her Vincennes debut late last month and with a better trip can make amends and go close. (3) GAIA D'OCCAGNES has raced solidly in two of her last three and from the 3-spot can make up for her recent clinker.
