Races ARM Clairefontaine - FRA

First-up after three-and-a-half months in the paddock. Has performed well when fresh in the past but wait and see how he has returned.

Often thereabouts but the wins are rare. Put the writing on the wall last time out when beaten 2.25 lengths into third over 2400m at Vichy. Can feature in the finish.

Finds it hard to win with just the one career success which came quite a while back. Last start was fifth over 1950m at Chateaubriant on July 10. Knocking on the door and is among the better chances.

Has been well below her best for a long time now and hasn't won in 15 months. Last raced when 12th over 2200m at Dieppe, beaten 7 lengths. Unlikely to turn it around here.

Has had one run back from a break and was well held in eighth over 2500m at Aix-les-Bains three-and-a-half weeks ago. Fitter but unlikely to threaten.

In the money at Argentan when resuming two runs back then could only manage 13th at Dieppe over 2200m two weeks ago. Certainly worth another chance.

Beaten 2 lengths into second at Argentan two starts ago then appeared at Chateaubriant last time and finished 93 lengths from the winner in 12th. Hard to have this tough line-up.

Has been out of the money in recent runs including last time out when ninth over 2400m at Longchamp two months ago, beaten 17 lengths. Likely to find this out of reach.

Has had two runs since a break, the latest a fifth over 2200m at Dieppe, beaten 2.5 lengths. Fitter for recent racing. Among the chances.

Yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest effort a fifth over 2000m at Compiegne eight days ago. Worth following up.

Working towards a win, the latest effort a solid third over 2400m at Saint-Cloud. Rates highly and can break through.

Shooting for a hat-trick of wins after scoring by 1.3 lengths over 2400m at Saint-Cloud on July 9. Going well and is among the better hopes.

Has recorded just one win from 17 career starts. Finished 8 lengths back in fifth at her latest appearance over 2400m at Vichy. Others rate better.

Ran a better race last start to finish second at Saint-Cloud over 2400m. Nicely placed and rates highly off that run. Expected in the finish.

Narrowly beaten last time over 2000m at Vichy, finishing just a nose from the winner in second. Can figure in the outcome again.

Stepping out at this track for the first time. Last appeared when he finished third over 2600m at Marseille Vivaux on June 21. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.
