Spotlight: Has winning track form; from respected trainer; out of the frame (beaten 4l in third) at Le Mans four weeks ago in a conditions race; capable of going well as shown he can get his head in front.

Spotlight: Proven that he knows how to get his head in front (seeking a fifth career win); close up third at Deauville over 1m4½f (handicap) in front of Zilrak last month; the trainer is going well; capable of making an impact.

Spotlight: On target twice in his last four outings; could not compete with Gold Player when sixth at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 1m4f (handicap, very soft) last month; handicapper shown some leniency so can't be ruled out.

Spotlight: Scored narrowly in a handicap (heavy) at Senonnes-Pouance two weeks ago; probably unlikely to trouble the principals as up in the weights.

Spotlight: Was tailed off at Saint-Cloud over 1m4f (handicap, heavy) 16 days ago; has chalked up two wins from his last six; not hard to look beyond him in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Spotlight: Finished out the back at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 1m2½f (handicap, very soft) two months ago; improved his record to three wins from 12 career starts last time; all wins going left handed; career wins-runs record of 3-12; has to be respected.

Spotlight: Accounted for El Caney and Mozart des Brieres over 2m at Cagnes-sur-Mer (handicap) when winning by half a length (heavy) last month; fifth latest; should be involved.

Spotlight: Towards the rear of 15 at La Teste De Buch over 1m4f (handicap) ten days ago; readily passed over given the strong opposition here.

Spotlight: Went down by half a length over 1m3f here (handicap) four weeks ago; Christophe Soumillon a notable booking.

Spotlight: Out of the frame (beaten just under 4l in sixth) 14 days ago when dropped to 1m3f in a conditions race; seeking his fifth career success; likely to be involved.

Spotlight: Fair effort over 1m5½f at Chantilly (handicap) five weeks ago; can't go on the shortlist as this looks a decent race.

Spotlight: Finished ninth, beaten 7l, three weeks ago, behind Mozart des Brieres; patchy form recently; this line-up contains some strong opposition so unlikely to make any impact.

Spotlight: A respectable runner-up of seven in a conditions race (Pornichet) 32 days ago upped to 1m7½f; hard to see him involved with tricky draw not helping.

Spotlight: Close up second at Saint-Cloud over 1m2f (handicap, very soft) three weeks ago; should be on the premises as latest run was an encouraging one.

Spotlight: From powerful yard; ran well to finish third at 25-1 three weeks ago; will need to overcome a poor draw and can be taken on.

Spotlight: Has won over C&D; has been fairly consistent of late; not beaten too far when fourth of 11 over 1m5½f at Chantilly (handicap) five weeks ago; this looks a decent race so makes limited appeal.
