Safely held last start when returning from a spell, finishing 15th and beaten 24 lengths in a hurdle (3800m) at Compiegne. Requires significant improvement.

Resumed after a spell last start with a modest eighth in a hurdle (3600m) at Compiegne. Before that first-up run he made the move to the N Vergne yard. Tougher task this time.

Was returning from a layoff last start when beaten 46 lengths into ninth in a hurdle (3900m) at this track. Key runner who is expected to feature if showing best form.

Unplaced two starts ago in a steeplechase (4700m) at Pau then produced a better result last start when he finished fourth in a steeplechase (4400m) at this track, beaten 25 lengths. Major player on his best figures.

Filled a minor placing two runs back in a steeplechase (4100m) at Saumur. Repeated the dose at the latest outing when third in a steeplechase (4100m) at Saumur, beaten 9 lengths. Likely to play a major role.

Has a poor win record and hasn't scored for more than a year. Last start finished fourth in a steeplechase (3850m) at Fontainebleau. Looks tested without big improvement.

Opened the campaign with a respectable second in a hurdle (3900m) at Machecoul then last start finished sixth in a steeplechase (4400m) at Fontainebleau nearly three weeks ago. Hard to fault on her best jumps form.

Was well off her best when resuming last start, finishing 10 lengths away in seventh in a steeplechase (4400m) at this track. Key chance on best figures.

Missed the frame two runs ago in a steeplechase (4200m) at Meslay-du-Maine. Atoned for that run last time when he grabbed second in a steeplechase (4200m) at Meslay-du-Maine. Rates highly.

Was a shade underwhelming when fresh in a hurdle (3900m) at this track, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths in soft going. Will strip fitter here second up and can feature with the right run.

Never looked like troubling them last time when ninth hurdle. Looks safely held on recent form.

Finished a modest eighth in a steeplechase (4400m) at this track last start. That came after he pulled up two runs ago. Confidence may have taken a hit.
