Spotlight: Although without a win, he has shown signs of ability; ran a solid race finishing third three weeks ago upped to this trip at Deauville in a maiden; improvement needed on this handicap debut so on balance looks an unlikely winner.

Spotlight: Fair effort (beaten just under 3l) at Le Lion d'Angers in July in a conditions race; Mickael Barzalona a notable jockey booking; warrants respect coming from this yard in this type of event and shown she can get her head in front.

Spotlight: Successful in clear-cut style over 1m1½f at La Teste De Buch (handicap, very soft) three weeks ago to get off the mark; has displayed improved form on last two starts; may be capable of overcoming hike in the ratings so prospects.

Spotlight: Finished towards the rear of 16 over 1m at Deauville (handicap) 31 days ago; he has been competitive despite being a maiden; runs for only the second time in a handicap; not fared well with the draw and one to tread carefully with.

Spotlight: Running consistently; beaten into third when 85-40 over 1m1½f at Deauville (handicap) last month; can make her presence felt.

Spotlight: Finished in front of several of these when close third (very soft) two weeks ago; a long time since his last win; makes limited appeal.

Spotlight: Searching for his second career win; fifth but only beaten less than a length (was done no favours by the draw, very soft) two weeks ago; Maxime Guyon a noteworthy booking; might have a say.

Spotlight: Not far behind Quiet Sea when sixth in a conditions race upped to 1m2½f in May; has had some time off; probably unlikely to trouble the principals; needs to leave previous runs behind.

Spotlight: Came good at the seventh time of asking last month over 1m1½f at Deauville (handicap), scoring by just under 2l; climbing the ratings and looks risky.

Spotlight: Not disgraced in ninth (very soft), finishing behind three of these rivals on first run for this trainer two weeks ago; he should go close if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success and handicapper has cut him some slack.

Spotlight: Appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs and hails from a good trainer; hard to crab his most recent performance (third of 11) over 1m at Lyon-Parilly (handicap, very soft) two weeks ago; just second start in this company.

Spotlight: Not disgraced in sixth over 7f here (handicap) in June; runs for a new stable here; ought to give it a shot if duplicating the form of her most recent win and she has been dropped in the weights.

Spotlight: Creditable effort to finish sixth, beaten 1½l (very soft) two weeks ago upped to this trip; shown enough to suggest she could get her nose in front one day but still searching for first win after four tries; this only her second handicap outing; poor draw could make life difficult and easy enough to take on.
