JUST BIRD (5), in cracking form, KANSAS DU HOCTI (6), barefoot and bidding for a sixth win of the year, and KATCHINA FOR CLARA (10), hard to knock at present, will need to be wary of the reconfigured INITIALE LILA (2) who will be entrusted to Alexandre Abrivard for her return to the code.

Maxime Bezier has a strong hand with MY LOVELY LADY (4), who is due a win one of these days, and MINDIE DES PRES (1), ideally-entered at the limit of earnings. MAGABYLOU (5) returns to the provinces with a good hand to play and may just be a marginally better bet than the latter. MONEY DU CHATELET (11), provided she remains focused, and MANON DU CHENE (6), partnered by Benjamin Rochard, can be considered next.

Winner at Angers a month ago, MALIBU (6) goes barefoot this time and can double up if he stays in stride. MAN ON THE MOON (13) has plenty of ability, has been reconfigured and, on good behaviour, will lead the opposition alongside the returning but well-positioned MAFIOSO DREAM (4), a winner here in May, and MIRAGE DU CAIEU (7), who is bidding to maintain his unbeaten record with Franck Ouvrie.

After a mixed first half of the year, HORUS DE VAL (1) is clearly now back at his best. Runner-up last time here, he is easy to like for the win. With a good turn of foot and partnered by Yoann Lebourgeois who is always a force at Caen, KASSYA (2) will lead the opposition alongside KALINE DU LOCHEUR (4) who makes her Caen bow on a four-timer. KNOCKONWOOD (9) is seldom far from faulting but will be no pushover if Robin Lamy can keep him focused. KASH DES CAILLONS (10) enjoys a good entry on the front row and in current form is easy to recommend.

Winner of this race last year, Simon Rousselle will bid to retain his title with NIKITA DES CHARMES (12) who recently imposed by a wide margin from NINJA DE L'ENVOL (16), winner of the Gr.1 Prix d'Essai in June. NICKEL DE BAILLE (15), carefully prepared by Mathieu Mottier, can also fight for the places, as can newcomers to the discipline NUEVO CASH (13) and NORMAN PIERJI (7), trained by Thierry Duvaldestin.
Has been disappointing on the whole for the past 12 months and recent form does nothing to inspire confidence

JOKER GES (5) was disqualified after winning at Laval ten days ago but Alexandre Abrivard will be determined not to let the same thing happen again.

Second in this race 12 months ago. IDOLE JALLERIE (15) is reunited with Yoann Lebourgeois who was onboard that day. IPATINGA (3) steps up in category but is in flying form and warrants respect.
