Three victories from seven runs. Unplaced in a Listed race last time but down in grade here and can make amends

Won first time out at Divonnes last month over 8.5f. Unplaced in a class 2 at Lyon last time
Broke maiden tag on eleventh attempt at Vivaux on fibresand a fortnight ago. Place chance
Recorded a first career success at Hyeres over 9f one month ago after two failed attempts. This is much tougher today
Winner of his last two starts in claimers over 9f. Should be a big player in this line-up
Two wins and three podiums from five starts. Second in an identical race over course & distance last time out. Can go one better

(1) BIG BOSS MAN was well held in his last start in a Listed contest but he remains the one they all have to beat in this line-up and could get trainer Frederic Rossi off to a good start to the day. Runner-up in an identical race over course and distance last time out (7) RIVER LILLY is the obvious threat to the selection.
Has been in good heart since June. Beaten a head over course & distance last time out. Can go one better
Has been very effective all year in the handicap division. A close runner-up at Divonne last time out and a player here again
Won a handicap off higher mark at La Teste in June but has gone cold since then
Six time winner from ninety-nine. Always gives everything she has but may have to settle for place once again
Was two pounds higher than today when scoring at Vivaux in January. Has been in average form since
Won two consecutive handicaps at the venue in April but has struggled under her new mark since. Guyon on board is worth noting though
Just the one win from fifteen. Good last two efforts at Divonne and can be in the mix here too
Seventeen start maiden whose recent efforts do little to inspire confidence. Look elsewhere
Has become unreliable but pops-up every now and again. Is seven pounds below her last winning mark
A three time winner from thirty one but recent form is very off putting
Seldom wins races and occasionally makes the frame. Cannot be totally ruled out
Registered a fourth career success at Toulouse in February but has done little of note since then
Has been struggling all season and is unlikely to pose a threat at the finish. Ignore
Has not won a race since December 2017. Very unreliable and not easy to fancy

Beaten a head over this course and distance last time out in a similar contest (1) PANAMERAS will legitimately garner a lot of support. She is consistent and has a lot going for her. (15) VOYAGER carries only 51kg and jumps off a good draw so is another one that needs monitoring. (6) GREENSHOE showed better intentions in her last run and could also be given some consideration.
Won two consecutive handicaps at Vichy this summer and seems high in the weight at present
Course & distance winner who was well beaten in his last two starts in this division
Has done nothing noteworthy in six starts this season and can be overlooked
Has been consistent for the most part this season and will enjoy any extra rain before the race
Very consistent performer in this division. Is one pound below his last winning mark
Very productive last summer but has gone cold in last two starts and must reaffirm
Effective in the handicap division. Stays well and should feature prominently
Yet to win a race after twenty-seven starts. Well beaten in both runs this season but did not go unnoticed last time out
Has not won a race for some time but always goes well in testing ground. Has been supplemented
Won two consecutive handicaps last spring including one over course & distance but has gone off the boil since
Three time winner from thirty six. Good last effort at Nimes over same distance. Player
Has not run one bad race in eleven starts this year and should feature prominently once again

(5) VISION DE ROLAND went close in his last two starts in this division and is one pound below his last winning mark. Associated with Maxime Guyon he should make a bold bid. (7) MARANO ships a long way for this race and has to be taken into consideration. (4) NO TABOO and the consistent (12) PETITE MILANAISE complete the shortlist.
Course and distance winner who has shown a nice rebound of form in her last two starts. Leading chance
Won two handicaps last year including one over course & distance. Unplaced on seasonal bow two weeks ago but will strip fitter
Veteran gelding who is still game at the age of thirteen. Can pick up some money
Eleven start maiden whose last two runs in this division are good enough to see her run into the money today
Has never won a race from twenty starts but is competitive off current mark and enters the equation
Recorded a fourth career success at Lyon at the end of September but seems high in the weight now
Won two handicaps this season and remains competitive off her new mark. Place chance
Twenty two start maiden who ran a creditable fourth in a handicap at Angers in most recent outing. Has a three pounds claimer
Missed all of 2018 and was beaten a long way in all five starts this year. Ignore
Just the one win from sixty seven. Disappointed in last two and must reaffirm
Long time maiden who was not disgraced in her last start at Nimes but is unlikely to go off the mark today

(1) LEAPING seems on the right path at present and will not be long before resuming with winning ways. She has previously won over this course and distance and gets a tentative vote ahead of (5) ZABELIA who faces an easier assignment than at Compiegne. Both (4) RUBY DU NINIAN and (8) TARCENAY have three pound claims and should be taken into consideration.
Went off the mark in a 6f handicap at Agen on fifth attempt. Has been penalized six pounds
One win in Italy and also won a claimer at Deauville in August. First run in a handicap
Won a handicap over 6f in May at Chantilly. Disappointed in last two and must improve a lot
Twenty-one start maiden who has made the frame just once this season. Not a priority
Has been very consistent in this division all season but struggles to win and others are preferred
Just one place from seven starts. Keeps dropping in the weight but remains hard to back
Has been in good heart since the end of August. On a competitive mark but takes a significant drop in distance
Has been knocking hard at the door but has a bit to prove over 6f. Enters the equation

Although she has not run over six furlongs for some time (8) BRIGANTINE who has been very consistent for her new connections could come on top in this competitive event. (1) INDIAN JEWEL makes a lot of appeal on form but must carry fourteen pounds more than the selection. (2) RIVER DOWN and (5) ADDICTED LOVE can also be in the mix.
Won three races last year including a Listed at Saint-Cloud but has been a shadow of herself this season
Had a very good start to the year but went cold before the summer break. Unplaced on re-entry ten days ago
Course & distance winner. Has been in good heart all season and is expected to give this a good go
Has won three races this year including one over this course & distance. Shortlisted
Has been effective in big handicaps this season. Has a bit to prove at the venue but cannot be ruled out
Six time winner from thirty. Always gives everything he has but faces a tough task in a race like tis
UK import whose only win was in a claimer at Deauville last summer. Unplaced in last two and must reaffirm

If consistency is the key in this contest then (3) PALAVAS will prove very hard to get passed. He has been a hardy campaigner this season and should be rewarded with another success. Trainer Christophe Escuder is well-armed with his two candidates (4) CASHBAG and (5) KAYENNE. (6) CALVIN could be the surprise package.
