C1 – PRIX DE L’AGRICULTURE DE PRECISION – LATITUDE GPS (PRIX KAWAN) – 3900m (a2m1/2) – TURF – Handicap – Steeple Chase – EUR € 45,000
- KALINE DES BOULLAT – Excellent runner-up in a Class 4 Condition Chase at Dieppe over 3,900m on 10 July 2026 when last seen. Key chance
- LADY ANGE WIN – Recent 3rd over 3800m in a handicap hurdle at Compiegne on April 21 last time. Placed over fences in March. Player
- SOBEST – Five solid efforts of late. 4th on the most recent over 3600m at this track in a handicap hurdle on August 17. In the mix
- SURINFIL – Finished 2nd on the latest start over 3900m at this track in a handicap chase on July 27. One to pay attention to
- LEANDRO NONANTAIS – Unplaced last time over 3900m at Dieppe in a Class 1 handicap chase on August 7 behind ZILIA REBEL (6). He faces a stiff task to be involved
- ZILIA REBEL – Nice win last time at Dieppe over 3900m in a Class 1 handicap chase on August 7. Hard to rule out of the top three
- ZAKY – Two below par efforts of late, well beaten at Senonnes over 3600m in a handicap hurdle on April 8 on his last outing. Hard to be enthusiastic about
- KIMARILLO – Two placed efforts of late, 2nd on the latter over 3900m at Dieppe in a Class 1 handicap chase on August 7 behind ZILIA REBEL (6). Unlikely to trouble some of these
Summary: KALINE DES BOULLAT (1) has solid credentials with a recent second at Dieppe in a Class 4 chase in early July on her latest start. She can get the better of her stable mate LADY ANGE WIN (2), who has consistent form over hurdles and fences recently. SURINFIL (4) has good recent course for with a second late last month in a handicap chase over track and trip and can make things interesting. SOBEST (3) won over hurdles at this track in June and has been placed over fences since over this track and trip in July and warrants respect.

- LE VIOLONISTE – Outclassed the opposition in a Class 3 Condition Chase at Craon over 3,700m on 6 July 2026 when last racing. Capable of following up
- BEL ECLAT – Good run to be 2nd over 3500m at Dieppe on August 7 in a handicap chase last time out. One to keep onside
- MASTER FALCON – Four unplaced runs of late, the latter over 3500m at Dieppe in a handicap chase on August 7. Hard to fancy
- CHEZ DOUCET – Fell last time over 3600m at Auteuil in a handicap hurdle on March 14. Back from a break and is worthy of consideration
- FORLIA DU FOUQUET – Finished 7th in a Class 3 Condition Hurdle at Clairefontaine over 3,600m on 27 July 2026 on her latest start. Others make more appeal
- ELLINGTON EDEN – Two below par efforts of late, 5th on his latest over 3500m in a handicap chase at Dieppe on August 7. Look elsewhere
Summary: LE VIOLONISTE (2) seems to have taken to fences well, with a second in May and a recent success at Craon in early July in a Class 3 race at Craon. He is preferred over MAIS OUI MADRIK (1), who arrives after a pleasing second at this track in a handicap chase late in July and can make her presence felt. BEL ECLAT (3) is also worthy of attention and can have a say in the finish. CHEZ DOUCET (5) lacks experience over fences but is worth considering on his second try over the larger obstacles.

- LIPRIKA D’ANJOU – Two unplaced efforts of late, 7th on his latest start in a handicap hurdle at Auteuil on April 9. Better run expected
Summary: LIPRIKA D’ANJOU (8) can bounce back from an absence in calmer waters today, having raced at Auteuil in all but one of his starts so far. CHARMAVEL (1) could make an impact if none the worse for his fall at Dieppe in mid-June, when last seen over hurdles. SHAENJET (4) is another to consider on a drop in class after tackling stronger opposition, while LILETTE (2) is better than her recent form figures suggest and should not be dismissed.

- KELLY CHIRON – Failed to complete the course last time over 3400m in a claiming hurdle at this track on July 27. More is needed in a stronger race
- BONJOUR PARIS – Well held on the sole start over 2800m at Moulins in a conditions race on the flat on May 9. Hurdles debut and he is best watched for the time being
- THE FIST – Fair 5th at Deauville on his last run over 3000m in a handicap on flat on August 4. Flat winner who warrants respect on hurdles bow
- SOLEA NONANTAISE – Finished 3rd in a Class 4 Condition Hurdle at Dieppe over 3,400m on 10 July 2026 last time out. In the mix
- NIAGARA DU SEUIL – Third in a Class 5 Condition Hurdle at Moulins over 3,500m on 14 June 2026 when last seen. Holds leading claims

- IT’S YOUR CHOICE – Fifth in a Class 4 Condition Hurdle at Dieppe over 3,400m on 10 July 2026 last time out. Can make the frame with improvement
- NOCES DE KARWIN – Failed to complete on hurdling debut at Fontainebleau over 3000m on March 9. Place chance if jumping better
- KALIRISK DU GRENAT – Finished a well beaten 5th in a Class 1 Condition Hurdle at Clairefontaine over 3,400m on 17 August 2026. Vast progress needed to be involved
Summary: NORTHMAN (1) has shown enough in two runs to take a race of this nature. He was not beaten far in his latest start in a Class 3 hurdle at Compiegne in early April. He can score at the expense of THE FIST (4), who won on the flat and he will be well schooled by his astute handler and can make life difficult for the likely favourite. NIAGARA DU SEUIL (6) has claims each way and showed nice promise when she was third at Moulins in a Class 5 hurdle in mid-June on her racecourse bow. SOLEA NONANTAISE (5) looks best of the remainder.

- NACRE DU SEUIL – Fourth in a Class 1 Condition Hurdle at Clairefontaine over 3,400m on 17 August 2026 last time out. She might find a few of these too smart
- STARSPIRIT GATSBY – Victorious in a Class 4 Condition Hurdle at Dieppe over 3,400m on 7 August 2026 last time out. Hard to rule out of the top three
- CASA DEL POETA – Second in a Class 4 Condition Hurdle at La Teste De Buch over 3,400m on 11 July 2026. Knocking at the door and she has place claims
- VOLAGE DE ROCHE – Successful in a Class 4 Condition Hurdle at La Teste De Buch over 3,400m on 11 July 2026 last time out. On an upward curve and has to enter calculations

- TAJMALY – Finished 3rd in a Class 3 Condition Hurdle at Clairefontaine over 3,400m on 17 August 2026 on his latest outing. Others seem better equipped
- RUMEX – Finished 3rd on her latest start over 3400m at this track in a claiming hurdle on July 27. He might find a few too smart
Summary: BULREO DESJY (2) should be fully fit after finishing third at this track nine days ago in a Class 1 hurdle. She can go one better and open her account, with HAYDEN DE ROCHE (1) the main danger following a third in a Class 3 hurdle here in mid-July. VOLAGE DE ROCHE (6) opened her account at La Teste in early July and is respected with further improvement expected. STARSPIRIT GATSBY (4) completes the shortlist and is another to consider.

- MADEMOISELE D ANGE – Game success in a Class 3 Condition Hurdle at Senonnes-Pouance over 3,600m on 31 July 2026 and a win before that on the flat. She can remain unbeaten
- BANCASTER – Gelding by Telecaster, the dam never raced. From a good stable that will have this newcomer well tuned for his hurdles bow
- MEURSAULT CHARME – Unplaced in a Class 3 Condition Hurdle at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 3,300m on 15 December 2025 last time. Likely to improve for this return to action
- MORPHO – Came home 7th in a Class 4 at Machecoul over 2,950m on 8 March 2026 on the sole start on the flat. Tries hurdles and others make more appeal
- MIGHTYWOOD – Three unplaced runs, the latest when failing to complete the course at Dieppe in a Class 5 hurdle over 3400m on August 7. Hard to recommend
- SILAWAY – Flat winner twice, including a Class 1 in September last year and also placed in a Listed race in Germany. Her latest start was on April 29 in a Class 3 flat race over 2000m. Tries hurdles and is worth attention
- MALISSA MANS – Finished 4th at Durtal over 2900m in a Group 3 AQ race on the flat on December 14. Two wins on the flat and she now makes her hurdles bow and others make more appeal
Summary: MADEMOISELE D ANGE (2) has won both starts, scoring on the Flat in June before making a winning hurdles debut at Senonnes in late July. She showed plenty of determination that day and can improve further, making her the pick over SENONNIAN (1), who won at this track on his latest start in late July and can play a leading role again. SILAWAY (7) has winning form on the Flat and should be well schooled for her hurdles debut, so she warrants close attention. BANCASTER (3) has an appealing profile and is worth watching in the betting for clues ahead of his racecourse debut.

- LA PRODIGIEUSE – Outclassed the opposition in a Class 2 Condition Hurdle at Vittel over 3,800m on 11 August 2026 last time. Ought to be in the shake-up
- MELCHIOR DU LARGE – Placed on his last three runs, 2nd on the latter over 3400m at Dieppe in a handicap hurdle on August 7. Hard to overlook
- BLIDA – Finished 4th on her latest start over 3400m at Dieppe in a Class 5 hurdle on July 10. Unlikely to trouble the principles
- MACAO ROQUE – Came home 4th in a Class 4 Condition Hurdle at Dieppe over 3,400m on 9 July 2026 last time out. Others rate higher
Summary: OVALIE (2) has been in top form with a win and two second place efforts from her latest three starts. Her second over this track and trip in a handicap hurdle in late July on her latest was a pleasing run. She can get the better of MELCHIOR DU LARGE (8), who has also been in form with three good runs himself. He can once again be competitive. MATIGNON LEON (6) has solid each-way credentials, having finished second behind OVALIE (2) on his penultimate start at Dieppe in July. LA PRODIGIEUSE (7) is also worth considering.

- KALIBRE – Failed to complete the course on his latest start at Pau over 4000m in a handicap chase on December 31. He is likely to need this run after an absence
- HILL OF BAMBOO – Two wins of late, the latter over 3800m at Dieppe in a handicap hurdle on July 17. Capable chaser who merits consideration
- LAKADAME – Successful in a Class 4 Condition Hurdle at Saint Malo over 3,900m on 1 August 2026 when last seen. She might find this challenging

- L’ARRABIATO – Recent success over 3900m at this track on July 27 in a handicap chase with a game success. Not to be taken lightly
Summary: JOUVANCELLE (13) could hold the key to this competitive handicap chase. She posted a pleasing second at this track in late July and is capable of going one better. L’ARRABIATO (14) also merits consideration following a handicap chase success on July 27, while his racing weight is another positive. JOUR POLAIRE (1) arrives in good form, having won at Dieppe two starts ago before finishing fourth in JOUVANCELLE’s race here last time. COUTE QUE COUTE (3) is another to consider after a second over hurdles at Dieppe 19 days ago and could prove just as effective over fences. TANTE ZENA (4) completes the shortlist and has the potential to feature in the finish.

C1 – PRIX DE SAINT-GALMIER – 2850m (a2m) – – Harness – EUR € 12,000
- KIARA DU SAPTEL – Imposed at Brehal just over a month ago but has since failed 4 times to confirm and can be passed over
- KYRIELLE JOMUNA – Won an amateurs Class G at Arras earlier in the month. Simply excels with Sven Hoste who can be forgiven for being bullish
- KINGDOM DE CHENU – Was unable to confirm Sablé-sur-Sarthe performance when pulled up at Les Sables-d’Olonne 5 days ago. Will be shod this time but could nevertheless secure minor honours
- INDY PIQUENARD – Reassuring 2nd in a 2300m Abbeville amateurs Class H 10 days ago. Is new to Vincennes and is unlikely to repeat
- KALINE JAMINI – Has won 3 of last 5 starts, most recently an Argentan Class F on 16 August, and although not a priority, can still pick up a first-five payout
- KAP NORMAND – Third in a Class H Amateurs’ race at Vittel over 2,700m on 15 August 2026, confirming his Arras run. Presents no main-track references though and cannot be considered a player
- KEZIO JOSSELYN – Finished 8th in a Class F Amateurs’ race at Enghien over 2,150m on 13 August 2026. Tends to show more in the claiming division and others easier to back
- JIM DE SUCE – Finished 5th in a Class H Amateurs’ race at Chinon over 3,100m on 15 August 2026. Ran 2nd over the inner course on sole start at the venue, but will have a part to play if he takes to the new conditions
- INKERMAN DE PLAY – Has not been as sharp as he was when winning a pair in June, most recently 5th in a 2150m Enghien amateurs Class F on 10 August. Incurs the penalty and represents a minor place chance at best
- HORACE DU VIVIER – Modest individual that has made no impact for some time and is not about to change his ways
- HAHICHA GIRL – Confirmed Pornichet performance when runner-up in a Class F Amateurs’ race at Laval over 2,850m on 19 August 2026, and it is just a question of when, not if, she returns to the winners’ enclosure. Claim
- ICONE PLANCHETTE – Fourth behind HAHICHA GIRL (11) in a Class F Amateurs’ race at Laval over 2,850m on 19 August 2026. Is quite evidently back at her best and has a decent chance of fighting out the finish
Summary: HAHICHA GIRL (11), who is plainly close to her race, a barefoot ICONE PLANCHETTE (12), partnered by Barbara Guenet, the consistent and well-placed KYRIELLE JOMUNA (2), and JIM DE SUCE (8), who is ideally-entered on the front line, look capable of fighting out the finish.

- OLYMPE DE BELINE – Disqualified in a Class G at Montier En Der over 2,300m on 23 August 2026, first time out. Showed promise in qualification though and should not be discounted
- OHLALA OKINA – 5th behind OBELLA DES BORDES (4) in a Class E at Les Sables-d’Olonne 2.5 weeks ago, and already looks out of her depth
- OBELLA DES BORDES – Finished 2nd in a Class E at Les Sables D’Olonne over 2,150m on 8 August 2026, showing improvement on her debut run, but in this company will need to find more
- OLYMPIC JOY – Runner-up to OF AMERICA (8) in a Class E at Cabourg over 2,050m on 4 August 2026. Hails from one of the best nurseries on the continent and must be taken very seriously
- OBJECTION AR – Finished 2nd, first time out, in a Class D at Enghien over 2,250m on 18 July 2026. Comes here fresh and is unlikely to disappoint if she takes to the new conditions
- OPEN ALL NIGHT – Runner-up on debut in a Class D at Enghien over 2,250m on 26 July 2026. Will only have progressed for the race and must be considered a contender
- OF AMERICA – Comfortably got off the mark in a 2050m Cabourg Class E 3 weeks ago. Is plainly a serious trotter in the making and should be good enough to repeat
Summary: There is little to separate OF AMERICA (8) and OLYMPIC JOY (5), who finished in that order at Cabourg, and OPEN ALL NIGHT (7), narrowly beaten on her debut at Enghien. By Idao De Tillard, the unraced and well-qualified ONALISA (1) merits close attention.

- MUSIQUE NAY – Fourth in a Class D over 2,175m here on 12 May 2026. Has not raced since and with shoes fitted will have little to offer
- MEGANE DE CERISY – Has yet to demonstrate any particular flair for the discipline and can be confidently passed over

- MAJUSCULE – No slouch on a good day but disqualified in 5 of last 6 starts. Is barefoot this time, but others still easier to trust
- MADINA MESLOISE – Has not been seen out since running 3rd in a Class B over course and distance on 17 October 2025. Goes first-time barefoot and has a reasonable chance of picking up a first-five payout
- MELODY LUDOISE – Third in a Class D at Cabourg over 2,750m on 14 July 2026, after having won a pair at Laval and Vichy. Gave a fine account on sole start here and is thoroughly capable of imposing
- MINA DRY – Eliminated in all three starts this season, most recently a 2750m Cabourg Class E on 14 August. Has been re-shod for the occasion but looks a minor place prospect at best
- MINNEAPOLIS – Complicated mare that opened her monte account in June. Was eliminated at Cabourg recently but should make amends if she gets off on the right foot
- MISSY DE JIEL – Blows hot and cold but ran reassuring third in a 2750m Cabourg Class E mid-month and can finish in the mix
- MALLAURY D’AVEL – Finished 5th in a Class C at Enghien over 2,875m on 4 July 2026. Sports a fresh configuration, is confirmed here, and has a lot going for her. Place chance
Summary: MELODY LUDOISE (8), who races sparingly but to good effect, MONDAINE (5), who puts her unbeaten record with Alexandre Abrivard on the line, and the reconfigured and ideally-engaged, MALLAURY D’AVEL (12), can be preferred to MINNEAPOLIS (10), who deserves another chance.

- NEMO D’ARNHEM – Finished 3rd in a Class E at Vittel over 2,700m on 12 July 2026, however at this level will have his work cut out for him
- NESPRESSO MIJO – Tricky colt but has talent in spades. Lost his action in a 2150m Enghien Class E a month ago. Is entrusted to Alexis Collette for the first time and, with application, can make this his own
- NORDLAND VEDAQUAIS – Disqualified in a Class E at Cabourg over 2,725m on 7 August 2026 before reassuringly imposing in a Class F at Francheville 8 days later. Yoann Lebourgeois back in the bike and has a decent chance of doubling his money
- NEW YORKER – Returns to racing left-handed following two straight eliminations. Is new to Vincennes but has been entrusted to Mathieu Mottier for the first time and can play an important role
- NAZARINO – Has turned a corner over recent weeks, lastly 3rd in a Mauquenchy Class E on 5 August. In better company this time though and others preferred
- NEVERLAND MIJACK – Reassuring, but surprise, 3rd in a Class E at Enghien over 2,875m on 6 August 2026, his first left-handed start. Takes on a better bunch this time but still warrants respect
- NAMOUR DE MONTFORT – Produced three fine performances before being disqualified in a Saint-Malo Class D three weeks ago. Franck Nivard gets the nod this time and will be expected to set the record straight. Place prospect
- NIMEO FLOWER – Finished 8th in a Class D at Enghien over 2,150m on 12 August 2026, his first appearance for 4 months. Will have come on for the run but is still in conditioning-mode
- NOBEL DE PAIL – Finished 2nd in a Class E at Mauquenchy over 2,850m on 5 August 2026, showing marginal improvement on Pornichet run. Is competitively-shod for the first time and is not to be underestimated
- NARKOS DU PAIN – 4th behind NEVERLAND MIJACK (7) in a 2875m Enghien Class E 3 weeks ago. Will be fitted with 4 pads for the first time and the engagement of Paul Ploquin will do his chances no disservice
- NIDORINO – Third in a monte Class E at Enghien over 2,250m on 26 July 2026. Presents solid harness form and although not a priority, will sport 4 pads for the first time and is still worth monitoring
Summary: Beaten only by the undefeated NUEVO, who since went on to win a Gr.2, at Enghien, NESPRESSO MIJO (3) was disqualified last time but nonetheless showed his form. If he stays in stride, he will have the edge over the talented NORDLAND VEDAQUAIS (4), NEW YORKER (5), who, with Mathieu Mottier reining must be afforded another chance, and NAMOUR DE MONTFORT (8), who should not be condemned for losing his action at Saint-Malo.

C5 – PRIX D’ECOMMOY – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class E – Mounted – EUR € 35,000 - NESTINA – Ran 6th in a harness Class F at Sable Sur Sarthe over 2,825m on 9 August 2026. Has ability though and debuts in the discipline with a respectable chance of getting in on the action
- NALLA DE BEYLEV – Finished 5th in a harness Class F at La Capelle over 2,750m on 22 March 2026, first time out. Will only have improved for the race and with Alexandre Abrivard in the saddle must be taken seriously
- NAGOYA MESLOISE – Ran second on debut at Cabourg on 4 August before losing her action in an Enghien Class D 9 days later. On good behaviour though, can put things right. Chance
- NASTREE DU VINOIS – Lost her action in a Class E at Les Sables-d’Olonne last Friday. Is proven over the main track and, if applied, can finish close
- NOKITA DU RIB – Third in a Class F at Cabourg over 2,750m on 4 August 2026. Is unlikely to lose her maiden tag this time either but should still be competitive for a first-five cheque
- NICOLETTA DU CLOS – Third in a Class D at Enghien over 2,875m on 13 August 2026. Is plainly on the right road, goes well for his jockey, and can play a small part
- NATURE DU RIB – Comfortable winner of a Class F at Cabourg over 2,750m on 4 August 2026, on just her second monte start, and looks thoroughly capable of repeating
- NORMA FIRST – Has done little of note since getting off the mark at Ecommoy in April and with shoes back on can be passed over
- NEPHY ELDE – Not the easiest of horses to handle, and was disqualified in last three, but Paul Ploquin gets the nod here and will be determined to keep her on the straight and narrow. Chance
- NEW GIRL OF MAMAT – Spirited filly that ran 3rd in a Class B over course and distance mid-June before being sent for a spell. Was eliminated on re-entry at Cabourg though and is not about to spring and surprises
- NOA BY STEED – Finished 7th in a harness Class E at Enghien over 2,875m on 8 August 2026. Is new to the discipline but others still easier to support
Summary: Impressive winner at Cabourg on 4 August, NATURE DU RIB (7) will attempt to beat NAGOYA MESLOISE (3) again but Thibaut Dromigny will be back in the latter’s bike. NASTREE DU VINOIS (4), who was unlucky at Les Sables-d’Olonne, and NEPHY ELDE (9), provided she stays in stride, look the leading dangers.

C6 – PRIX DE BOSC RENOULT – 2850m (a2m) – Claiming – Harness – EUR € 18,000 - LADY DE BEYLEV – Most impressive in a Cabourg claimer last week despite losing her action after suffering interference. Is plainly in shape though and from the front line can get in on the action
- MANZANA – Finished last but one in a Class E at Enghien over 2,875m on 4 July 2026 and, quite simply, has nothing to offer
- LALE – Third in a Class F at La Roche-Posay over 3,175m on 22 August 2026. A repeat, however, seems most unlikely
- LUCKY DELADOU – Is better than recent 9th in a Cabourg claimer would suggest. Starts in front here and can get a look in
- MAMBO THORIS – Won a Divonne-les-Bains claimer on 10 August. Alexandre Abrivard in the bike again and is not about to let the side down. First 5
- LE SEPTIEME ART – Encouraged at La Ferte-Vidame but was unable to confirm when 7th in an Agon Class F 10 days ago, and can expect to have few friends
- LET IT OUT – Has looked very ordinary since winning a Vichy claimer in May and is not about to create an upset
- LISTEL D’URZY – Ran 6th in a Class F at La Roche-Posay over 3,150m on 9 August. Has never excelled at Vincennes but can nevertheless hold his own
- LOVE ME MAZELI – Useful mare making first appearance since 10 May. Is barefoot for comeback but others still preferred
- LUSSABEAU – Has done nothing of note since returning from a spring spell and can be written off
- LALOU D’AMOUR – Eliminated in 3 straight before finishing 7th in a Graignes Class F 2.5 weeks ago. Has form with her driver but is still not a priority
- MANOU DU CHENE – Oddly below-par 5th to MYRTILLE MARBOULA (16) in a 2150m Enghien claimer 2.5 weeks ago. Should not be too hastily-judged and is worth bringing back into the fold
- MOSCANTIDA PEAL – Could possibly have won a 2150m Enghien claimer 2.5 weeks ago had she not been blocked in. Starts on 2nd row but can wrap this up if Paul Ploquin keeps her out of trouble
- MELODY MUSIC – Fourth in a monte Class E at Cabourg over 2,750m on 14 August 2026. Won under harness last month and cannot be discounted
- MERMOZ – Got back in the game on 8 August when 2nd in a 2150m Enghien claimer. Tends to show more over shorter but presents solid references nevertheless and can contest a place in the frame
- MYRTILLE MARBOULA – Won her second of the year when securing a 2150m Enghien claimer 2.5 weeks ago, at the expense of MOSCANTIDA PEAL (13), and has a reasonable chance of doubling up
Summary: MOSCANTIDA PEAL (13) would have given MYRTILLE MARBOULA (16) a run for her money had she been afforded passage in the closing stages at Enghien earlier in the month. Second that day, MERMOZ (15), goes barefoot this time and should again play a prominent role. LADY DE BEYLEV (1), who showed serious form after being disqualified at Cabourg, can be preferred to MANOU DU CHENE (12) who is in her category here.

C7 – PRIX DE CHARTRES – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class D – Harness – EUR € 40,000 - NYMPHE DE BAIS – Finished 4th in a Class E at Cabourg over 2,725m on 11 August 2026. Is clearly being aimed too high and is not about to lose her maiden status this time either
- NIGHT DU SAPTEL – Finished 2nd in a Class F at La Capelle over 2,750m on 30 July 2026, having got off the mark on previous start, and even though moving up in category still warrants respect
- NINA DU BOCAGE – Finished 3rd in a Class E at Meslay-du-Maine over 2,875m on 15 August, 3 weeks after running 2nd at La Capelle, and should not be ruled out
- NATURE D’ECHAL – Missed the break in an Enghien Class E 2.5 weeks ago and was unable to confirm her Le Mans victory, but can set the record straight if she gets off on the right foot
- NEW STAR WIND – Put 4 straight sanctions behind her to win a Class F at Agon 10 days ago. Is re-shod for the occasion but is out of her depth
- NIKYTA CIBEL – Reliability not her strong suit but reassured at Vichy early this month and, with Alexandre Abrivard reining, will be afforded every chance
- NAGOYA DE LOU – Won a Class F at Divonne over 2,000m on 13 August 2026. Takes on a better lot here but still looks up to the task at hand. Attention
- NOORDZEE – Clearly talented but eliminated in last 2. Debuts at Vincennes and will be dangerous if she takes to the new conditions
- NOUBA DE CHINE – Runner-up in a Class E at Le Mans over 2,950m on 25 July 2026. Is plainly close to her race and will be no soft touch
- NICCA BREED – Fourth in a Class E at Cabourg over 2,750m on 4 August 2026. Won twice in the spring but takes on a more exalted lot here and chances appear limited
- NINA DU COJEUL – Finished 7th in a Class D at Enghien over 2,875m on 26 July 2026, after having imposed at Amiens the previous month, and is not about to spice things up
- NEED YOU AGAIN – Finished 8th in a Class D at Enghien over 2,875m on 16 July 2026. Is patently much better than that though and Yoann Lebourgeois has every chance of putting things right
- NOUCHKA ROYALE – Won a Class E at Chartres over 2,800m on 28 June 2026. Is well in here but takes a notable hike in category and will need to find more
Summary: This looks an open contest. NATURE D’ECHAL (4), partnered by Paul Ploquin for the first time, should be up to this level if she stays in stride. NOUBA DE CHINE (9), fitted with pads for the first time, NOORDZEE (8), who should not be judged too harshly for her recent run, and NEED YOU AGAIN (12), partnered by Yoann Lebourgeois, are also in with a shout.

C8 – PRIX DE VIMOUTIERS – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class E – Harness – EUR € 35,000 - MARCEL SEVEN – Useful on a good day but is never far from faulting, as he showed at Enghien a fortnight ago. On better behaviour, though, can get back in the game
- MIRAGE QUICK – Has won 2 of last 3, latterly an Avignon Class E a month ago, but in this category will have nothing to contribute
- MAGIC LOMIG – Has bags of talent but is as capricious as the wind. Has previously won with Paul Ploquin but has too much to find here
- MERCATO DES FORGES – Runner-up in a Class E at Les Sables D’Olonne over 2,650m on 4 August 2026, his first start since April. Will have come on for the run and, if applied, will not be far off the mark
- MONEYTIME DUCAMPUS – Has been showing decent ability in the south of France. Debuts in the capital with Yoann Lebourgeois reining and is unlikely to be too far from the action
- MALIBU – Was going well when disqualified at Carentan mid-month. Will be fully-fit by now and, reunited with his handler, can impose
- MURO – Disappointing on the whole since returning from his spring layup and appears to have no possible chance
- MIRACLE OF LOVE – Imposed at Le Mans on 13 July but was quickly disqualified at Pornichet just last week. Is new to Vincennes, and is seen more often racing right-handed, but current form augurs well for his chances
- MENJOY QUICK – Placed in 3 straight prior to finishing 6th in a Pornichet Class E last week. Reverts to a productive formula but faces an even stiffer test this time
- MELIUS AVIS – Runner-up in a Class E at Enghien over 2,875m on 29 July, at 37-1. Will be shod as he was that day but still looks considerably less-competitive
- MARABOU DODVILLE – Gave a reassuringly-good account when 2nd in a Carentan Class E a month back. Has yet to deliver on the main track and looks a minor place chance at best
- MAGNUM – As tricky as they get but has ample ability. Has not raced since being disqualified at Les Sables-d’Olonne in mid-July, but clearly means business here and can make a big impact if Alexandre Abrivard keeps him trotting
- MAESTRO DES SARTS – Finished 4th in a Class E at Enghien over 2,875m on 10 August 2026. Has started to get back in the game following a tough start to the season and although unlikely to impose, should nevertheless give an honest account
Summary: MALIBU (6), who must be given another chance and who will be re-shod for the occasion, MAGNUM (12), barefoot for the first time and capable of making amends, MIRACLE OF LOVE (8), who missed the break at Pornichet, the improving MERCATO DES FORGES (4), are all potential winners.

- DEESSE D’ARGENT – Finished 5th in a Maiden at La Teste De Buch over 1,600m on 5 August 2026. Ran on nicely in that last run and should improve further
- INJAN – Finished 4th in a Maiden at La Teste De Buch over 1,600m on 5 August 2026. That was a decent enough debut run and could place
- FLORENCIA – Unplaced in a Class 2 at Mont De Marsan over 1,400m on 23 July 2026. Will need to improve on that last run to have any chance

Summary: CHAMPAGNE SUNSET (11) is well bred and could make a winning debut, especially as she is the lone runner from the Christopher Head yard at this meeting. BLUE BLOSSOM CEN (12) is another debutante, this one by Frankel, who has been entered in the Gr1 Prix Marcel Boussac, while stable companion LADY FALCON CEN (6) has had two promising runs so far. FRISSONANTE (1) is another likely to improve.

- EL LAGAR – Finished 8th in a Maiden at Mont De Marsan over 1,400m on 26 July 2026. So far his form has been moderate and is unlikely to be competitive
- BALMA – Unplaced in a Maiden at La Teste De Buch over 1,600m on 5 August 2026. Could improve on that debut run, especially with Marvin Grandin taking the ride
- LOVE IN GLORY – Finished 6th in a Maiden at La Teste De Buch over 1,600m on 5 August 2026. Will need to improve on that debut performance

BLUE SEA (2) messed up the start on debut but then went on to finish well and will improve over the longer trip. Unraced SMOKEY SPIRIT (11) is well bred and is one to watch, while SARMAD (1) has experience and is improving.

AMITY (14) likes to sit up with the pace and also has good form at this track. BURNING HEART (1) is ultra-consistent and should be a good bet to finish in the top three once again.

ATLANTA (16) slots in with no weight on the back and can have a say in the finish if on song.

He is taken to follow up, although LA FORMIDABLE (4) has competed in stronger company and makes the journey with plenty of stable confidence.

LOKA LOKA (5) finished strongly at Amiens at the end of July and, having been rested since, could make a bold bid. LOOKIERO (4) possesses plenty of ability and this looks well within his capabilities. LE BEAU CIEL (2) has become much more consistent since the start of the summer and can again play a prominent role.

MILLONGA VRIE (8) won at course in July before finishing a good third at Mauquenchy and should again play a leading role.
