Spotlight: Wasn't beaten that far when eighth (beaten 1½l, dropped to this distance) last month; generally struggled of late and subpar since successful in a handicap at Cagnes-sur-Mer in January; facing a testing assignment and hard enough to fancy.

Spotlight: Likes racing this way around; good record here of four wins from 18 runs; put a couple of lacklustre efforts behind her when a close third last month in a claimer; should be thereabouts.

Spotlight: Finished ahead of four of these when only just held last month; clear chance as handicapped to go close.

Spotlight: Not a frequent winner and failed to offer a great deal of encouragement in recent outings; towards the rear of 16 at Chantilly over 1m (handicap) five weeks ago; this looks a decent race so others more persuasive.

Spotlight: Has won previously at this course; one-time useful performer; had a couple of these behind him when runner-up at Chantilly over 1m (handicap) last month; a rise in the ratings to contend with; chance.

Spotlight: Beaten 9l in tenth over 1m at Chantilly (handicap, very soft) four months ago; layoff to overcome; should be on the premises as some leniency shown by handicapper and she has overcome this mark before.

Spotlight: Likes it here (three wins); not disgraced when fifth of 15 over 1m3f at Clairefontaine (handicap) last month; needs considering.

Spotlight: A winner on three occasions from 1m1f to 1m4½f but not always shown an awful lot since winning a handicap at Argentan four months ago; finished towards the rear of 14 over 1m3f at Amiens (handicap) five weeks ago; a lot on her plate here and one to tread carefully with.

Spotlight: Not disgraced in 11th over 1m at Chantilly (handicap) last week; useful at this level but not seen the winners' enclosure for a while now (last win in 2023); now over an extra 1½f.

Spotlight: This just his fourth race; made the frame last time; others are preferred.

Spotlight: Successful in six of his 50 career starts; likely to be involved.

Spotlight: Likes racing this way around; has winning track form; held in 11th two weeks ago; rates a likely contender based on the pick of his form and he's been given a chance by the handicapper.

Spotlight: Looking for his second career win; towards the rear of 14 at Chantilly last month, behind Moon Rider.

Spotlight: Yet to manage better than fifth in her five races; last of 12 over 1m4½f at Evreux (handicap) in April; returns from an absence here; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Spotlight: Has won at this track; out of the frame (beaten just under 4l in ninth) over 1m at Chantilly (handicap) last week; now looks to be past his prime and only limited appeal.

Spotlight: Finished towards the rear of 15 when he was behind several of these rivals last month; specialist here with three wins; no surprise to see him go well as has been on the scene in the recent past.
