Handy stayer who has been plain of late including last start when well held over 2350m at Strasbourg. Finds a suitable contest this time so expect sharp improvement.

Strips fitter after two runs this time in work. Finished fourth last start over 2400m at Toulouse, an improvement in the first-up performance. Leading hope this time.

Settled well off the pace last start then made steady ground to finish ninth over 2400m at Lyon-la-Soie. In a suitable race and is worth including.

Returned from a spell and was easily accounted for when ninth over 2300m at Montlucon-Neris. Fitter but unlikely to threaten.

Stepping out at this circuit for the first time. Last appeared when he finished fifth over 2400m at Lyon-la-Soie on March 21. Further improvement is anticipated.

Chalked-up her second minor placing in a row last time out when third over 2000m at Lyon-Parilly. Racing well and can go on with it.

Hasn't won in 16 months. Finished tenth, beaten 12 lengths, last start over 2500m at Le Croisé-Laroche. Has ability and can run a forward race.

Has struggled to make his mark of late, the most recent effort a fourth over 2300m at Montlucon-Neris two-and-a-half weeks ago. Senior rider D Breux has been engaged to replace a claiming apprentice.

Hasn’t been competitive lately, last start finishing a 9 length eighth over 2000m at Lyon-Parilly. Prepared to risk.

Has just two wins to his name but has been in the minor end of the prize a further 10 times from 47 starts. Last start finished seventh over 2400m at Lyon-la-Soie, beaten 2.5 lengths. Looking to others.

Wasn't expected to do much when fresh from a spell last start at Toulouse over 2400m and wound up in eighth, beaten 7 lengths. Looks tested on the first up effort.

Recent form has been below par. Last start finished 16 lengths adrift in sixth over 2500m at Agen. Not keen.
