Spotlight: Not beaten that far in ninth (4½l) in August; a winner over this C&D; is a player if able to run to the same level as his last win and he has been dropped in the weights.

Spotlight: Finished tenth of 12 over 1m2½f at Lyon La Soie (handicap) last month; likes this combination of C&D; useful in his prime; should not be far away if the form of his last victory can be replicated and he's been given a chance by the handicapper.

Spotlight: He can be competitive at this level; beaten a long way despite being fancied at Clairefontaine over 1m3f (handicap) two weeks ago; drops in trip.

Spotlight: Solid effort when beaten just under 3l to finish eighth two weeks ago back down to this distance in a claimer; still winless and defeats stacking up (15 on the bounce) and largely been out of sorts.

Spotlight: Finished just behind Friends Dream when ninth over 1m2½f at Argentan (handicap) 29 days ago; doesn't win often; others are preferred.

Spotlight: Been largely out of form in recent starts but three-time winner in his career (from 6f-1m1f); not beaten too far when tenth of 11 over 6f at Chantilly (handicap) 23 days ago; likely to be in contention with him operating off a reduced mark and he has posted some fair efforts in defeat in the past.

Spotlight: Track has proven suitable before; been largely out of form in recent starts; out of the frame when ninth at Lyon La Soie over 1m2½f (handicap) last month (eased in the weights since); not hard to turn elsewhere.

Spotlight: Respectable effort finishing fourth (beaten 2½l) at Argentan over 1m2½f (handicap) four weeks ago; if she can build on her latest effort then holds leading claims.

Spotlight: Has won at this track; all wins on right-handed tracks; unable to land a blow when 12th of 16 over 1m at Chantilly (handicap) last Tuesday; looks likely to be involved.

Spotlight: Career record shows his ability to win (wins-runs record of 8-29); beaten 6l into runner-up (this distance) behind Green Curry in August; runner-up last time; not hard to turn elsewhere.

Spotlight: Wins infrequently; sixth latest; not seen for some time now but jockey booking is a positive; warrants respect.

Spotlight: Not beaten that far in sixth (4½l) at Chantilly 42 days ago; ninth latest; likely to go well as has bits and pieces of decent form.

Spotlight: Beaten 9l in fourth over 1m2½f at Argentan (handicap) last month; definitely of interest based on the pick of her form.

Spotlight: Has won at this course.

Spotlight: Specialist here with three wins; good effort when close up over 1m at Chantilly (handicap) last Tuesday.

Spotlight: Wins infrequently and has lacked consistency of late; came home tenth, beaten 7l, at Compiegne over 7f (handicap, very soft) last month; seventh latest; passed over.
