10-12 Vincennes 05Jun26 2850SS $59,000 D244 RST E 711 Damien Bonne $8, btn 99m, wnr Jizou D'etang 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Returns following a spell of four-and-a-half months. Last raced when tenth at Vincennes. May need the outing and prefer others this time.

6-13 Le Croisé-Laroche 30Sep26 2700MS $39,000 C261 711 Gilles D'haenens $22, btn 9.87m, wnr Joyeux Du Landret 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished 3.1L back in sixth at his latest appearance at Le Croisé-Laroche. Can make amends.

2-14 Vichy 01Aug26 2950SS $43,000 C255 811 Alexis Collette $2, btn 4.05m, wnr Harmony La Nuit 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Returns following a spell of ten weeks. Last raced when second at Vichy. May need the outing and prefer others this time.

89-13 Le Croisé-Laroche 30Sep26 2700MS $39,000 C261 711 Matthieu Verva $103, btn 99m, wnr Joyeux Du Landret 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Forget last start when failed to complete the course at Le Croisé-Laroche. Ran 13th two back at Villereal, beaten 37.5L. Overlook the recent mishap but hard to enthuse this line-up.

6-17 Enghien 07Oct26 2875SS $59,000 D254 HCP M 711 25m Franck Nivard $4, btn 19.14m, wnr Jain Mab 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Ran below par last time when sixth at Enghien but her form prior to that was sound. Rates highly and expected to bounce back.

12-17 Rambouillet 20Sep26 2800SS $27,000 D25 HCP 611 25m Didier Hue $15, btn 99m, wnr Gump Du Poncelet 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Continued a long run without winning when 12th at Rambouillet last time out. Certainly worth another chance.

1-14 Enghien 28Sep26 2150MS $59,000 D229 711 Francois Lagadeuc $6, won by 8.39m, 2nd Jos Maza 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Is going along well with a minor placing two back at Vincennes followed by an impressive win last time at Enghien. Hard to beat again.

99-16 Cordemais 04Oct26 2650MS $28,000 D231 RST E 811 Leo Abrivard btn 99m, wnr Ruger 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Disqualified last start at Cordemais. Forgive the recent mishap. Top pick if at his best.

14-17 Craon 28Sep26 3500SS $42,000 B600 HCP 611 25m Christophe Gallier $114, btn 99m, wnr Ideal Du Rocher 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was mediocre when 13.4L away in 14th most recently at her first run back from a spell at Craon. Has the job ahead against this lot.

7-13 Le Croisé-Laroche 30Sep26 2700MS $39,000 C261 711 Pascal Cordeau $39, btn 11.25m, wnr Joyeux Du Landret 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Continued a long run without winning when seventh at Le Croisé-Laroche last time out. This looks far too tough.

8-16 Laval 24Sep26 2850SS $35,000 D235 E 611 Nils Pacha $222, btn 44.06m, wnr Koureas D'ela 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Could only manage eighth at Laval last time to continue a run of mediocre form. Others rate better.

4-16 Cordemais 04Oct26 2650MS $28,000 D231 RST E 811 Alexis Popot btn 22.12m, wnr Ruger 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Failed to threaten when resuming last start, finishing fourth at Cordemais and beaten 6.9L. Open to plenty of improvement.

4-13 Le Croisé-Laroche 30Sep26 2700MS $39,000 C261 711 Kristof Depuydt $49, btn 4.25m, wnr Joyeux Du Landret 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been struggling of late, most recently finishing fourth at Le Croisé-Laroche. Can do much better.

7-10 Rochefort-Sur-Loire 16Aug26 3000SS $26,000 D240 HCP 711 25m Claire Desmontils btn 39.11m, wnr Jack Des Ass 0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Missed out two starts ago then finished seventh at his latest appearance at Rochefort-sur-Loire, 12.2L adrift. This looks a suitable assignment.
