Spotlight: Beaten a long way at Les Sables D'olonne last month upped to 1m5½f; others appeal more.

Spotlight: Has won here before; failed to make much of an impact in handicaps recently; towards the rear of 15 over 1m1½f at Deauville (handicap, dropped a few pounds since) 16 days ago; others more likely.

Spotlight: Ran well to finish third (beaten just over 1l) at Chantilly over 6½f (claimer) three weeks ago; yet to open her account after 22 starts; debut for new stable; others more persuasive with difficult draw to overcome.

Spotlight: Could not manage better than eighth (heavy) last month at Amiens in a claimer; now looks to be past his prime and looks an unlikely winner.

Spotlight: A winner over C&D; failed to land a blow when sixth of ten (Deauville) three weeks ago in a conditions race; holds major claims as a winner off a similar mark and shown he can get his head in front.

Spotlight: Behind Lunaticos at Nantes last week when beaten a long way (dropped a few pounds since) upped to 1m4f; largely disappointing since successful in a handicap at Senonnes-Pouance four months ago; poor draw to contend with and others are preferred.

Spotlight: Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Clairefontaine (beaten just under 4l) over 1m3f (handicap) last month; shown signs of promise here and there and should go close.

Spotlight: Has winning C&D form to his name; generally been out of sorts of late; beaten 13l in eighth over 1m4f at Nantes (handicap) last Wednesday; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Spotlight: A winner over this C&D; slumped a bit since winning a handicap at Pornichet in January; finished tenth of 12 at Nantes over 1m (handicap) five weeks ago, handicapper dropped her a few pounds; others appeal more.

Spotlight: Held when sixth beaten 6l at Amiens over 1m (handicap, heavy) last month; a likely player as mark is dropping.

Spotlight: Track has proven suitable before; not been able to make much of an impact in handicaps recently; finished out the back over 1m3f at Craon (handicap) in September (very soft) behind Oasis Bay,, handicapper dropped him a few pounds; his claims aren't overly compelling.

Spotlight: Towards the rear of 15 in a conditions race (dropped back to 7½f) at Deauville in January; returning from a layoff here; capable if in the mood so in with a chance.

Spotlight: This C&D holds no fears; towards the rear of 14 over 1m1½f at Le Mans (handicap) 24 days ago; hard enough to fancy.

Spotlight: Beaten a long way over 1m7f at Le Lion d'Angers (handicap) in May; has won 12 times in his career; returns from a layoff; likely to be a threat if reproducing his best back form.

Spotlight: Turned in a solid effort in defeat in March, when third upped to 1m4f; all her wins have come when going this way around; running consistently; returns from an absence here; should give it a bold bid if confirming promise shown last time.

Spotlight: Finished towards the rear of 14 over 1m2f at Le Lion d'Angers (handicap) in May; poor strike-rate but has run some good races at this course recently; has had some time off; definitely of interest with so many of these having something to prove and he ran well three runs back.
