  1. IDYLLE DU PERSIL – A moderate 7th in a Class D over 2,700m at La Capelle on 2 September. she has finished runner-up on four occasions at this course and well placed behind the starting get, she could well have a say in the finish
  2. JIBI DU FRUITIER – Finished 8th in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,700m on 18 September. Has placed at this course and is well positioned behind the starting gate. Deserves consideration
  3. IOUPY TOLLEVILLE – Finished 7th in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,700m on 18 September. Had run some decent races at this track but has been erratic and cannot be relied upon. Racing without shoes this time he could surprise if in the mood
  4. JOS MAZA – Excellent runner-up in a Class D at La Capelle over 2,700m on 2 September. That was a top run against a classy winner and coupled with his good position behind the starting gate, he does look formidable
  5. HAPPY PACHA – Finished 9th in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,700m on 18 September. He has only been moderate of late but does have ability on his day and goes well for driver Alexandre Abrivard. Should not be ignored
  6. HERMES D’ECROVILLE – Unplaced in a Class D over 2,700m at La Capelle on 2 September. He has not run well at this course and has not won in two years. His form is poor and he is likely to battle
  7. IN LOVE REGLISSE – Winner of a Class D over 2,950m at Toulouse on 18 September. He has a lot against him this time and racing with plated shoes on all four feet he will battle to be competitive
  8. JAGUAR DU FAN – A moderate 7th in a Class D over 2,850m at Carentan on 6 July. He has good from at this course but has not shown much on recent months. Coming back from a two-month break he does need to prove himself
  9. GALOPIN DE BIANCA – Finished 7th in a Class B at Feurs over 2,850m on 7 September. He will be racing with plates on all four feet and as a 10-year-old having to start from the second row, he is going to need some luck
  10. JEWEL TOUCH – Outclassed the opposition in a Class E at Redon over 2,950m on 6 September. He is in top form, goes well for driver Eric Raffin and likes to come from off them so his second row starting position will not be of concern
  11. INDIGO DU PERCHE – Came home 7th in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,175m on 5 September. That run was against a strong field in a mounted race. He is better than that and must have place propects
  12. JOYCE DES GRANGES – Came home 5th in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,850m on 12 September. She rarely runs a bad race, has respectable form at this track and could run into a place
  13. INTELLO DE CHENU – Finished 13th in a Class E at Sable Sur Sarthe over 2,825m on 9 August. He is not in the best of form and looks unlikely to trouble the stronger contenders
  14. JAZZ DE PADD – Finished 3rd in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,850m on 11 September. Has proven form at this course which makes him dangerous and he has won with driver Alexis Collette in the driver’s seat
  15. INTREPIDE DES BOIS – Excellent runner-up in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,850m on 11 September. Has finished second in his last four starts and could do again despite his wide starting position
    Summary: JOS MAZA (4) has the right credentials to win a race of this nature. He is well positioned on the front row and looks well prepared for this race. Form-wise, INTREPIDE DES BOIS (15) has a similar profile and comes into the race off four successive seconds. He holds JAZZ DE PADD (14) on form but the latter has progressed since then. JEWEL TOUCH (10) comes off three wins in a row but does face stronger. JIBI DU FRUITIER (2) is another in good form and will be looking to cause the upset.

    C2 – PRIX DU PONT DE TOLBIAC – 2150m (a1m1/4) – – Harness – EUR € 38,000
  16. OLBIA CASTELETS – Disqualified ina Class D over 2,175m at Vincennes on 11 September. Will battle to be competitive in this company
  17. ONE LIFE – Successful in a Class E at Rambouillet over 2,000m on 6 September. That was an excellent debut and further progress can be expected
  18. OLYMPIC MEMORY – Disqualified in a Class D over 2,175m at Vincennes on 11 September. She is better than that and driven by Eric Raffin must be considered
  19. OSEZ MELODY – Not disgraced when third in a Class E at Les Andelys over 2,525m on 13 September. She has had two promising performances so far and there could be more to come
  20. OASIS DU CHOQUEL – Showed promise and was third in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,175m on 11 September. There should be progress from that debut run and more can be expected
  21. OH FAMILY – Disqualified in a Class C over 2,200m at Vincennes on 18 September. She should be forgiven for her last start and deserves another chance
  22. ODESSA DE MORGANE – Disqualified in a Class D over 2,175m at Vincennes on 11 September. Unlikely to be a threat in this field
  23. OZANA PRIMA – Came home 5th in a Class D at Vincennes over 2,175m on 11 September. She has not performed badly in both of her starts but will need to find more this time
  24. OCKNETTE DE CORDAY – A reasonable 4th in a Class F over 2,300m at Bernay on 12 July. She faces stronger this time so could struggle
  25. OLYMPE DE BELINE – Finished 3rd in a Class F over 2,550m at Reims on 13 September. She has come on nicely since her first run and will be driven by Alexandre Abrivard
  26. OASIENNE – Finished 7th in a Class C over 2,200m at Vincennes on 18 September. She has been moderate so far and cannot be considered
  27. OLYMPE KAYZ – A promising 4th in a Class E over 2,400m at Cabourg on 13 September. She put up a decent effort but will need to up her game to compete at this level
    Summary: The last performance of OH FAMILY (6) when she missed the start should be ignored as she won with authority on debut and more can be expected this time. OASIS DU CHOQUEL (5) is another who showed up well on debut and should progress for that experience. OLYMPIC MEMORY (3) is another who should be forgiven for her last disqualification as she will have Eric Raffin in the driver’s seat. Well-bred ONE LIFE (2) won on debut and is also worth considering.

    C3 – PRIX DE CHAMPILLON – 2875m (a2m) – Class D – Harness – EUR € 40,000
  28. NISKO D’ELCE – A solid 2nd in a Class E over 2,650m at Les Sables D’Olonne on 3 September. He has ability on his day but he needs to keep his mind on the job
  29. NIAGARA PLANCHETTE – Excellent runner-up in a Class D at Les Andelys over 2,525m on 13 September. Has some ability but faces stronger this time
  30. NEMO DU DIGEON –
  31. NUMBER WAY – A promising 2nd in a Class E over 2850m at Laval on 28 August. Has performed well since using this shoes configuration and should do so again
  32. NOBEL DU CHOQUEL – Won in a Class E at Chartres over 2,800m on 11 September. The form of that last run has been franked as second-placed Never Alone has gone on to win his next start. Will race with plated shoes all round
  33. NAZARINO – Disqualified in a Class D over 2,175m at Vincennes on 8 September. Unlikely to feature in this event
  34. NEO DE FAEL – An excellent 2nd in a Class E over 2700m at La Capelle on 25 August. Will be a massive contender as long as he reamains focused

  36. NOTRE SAXO D’AURE – Finished 6th in a Class C at Vincennes over 2,700m on 5 May. Will need to do a lot more in this field
    Summary: This looks to be quite an open race but perhaps NUMBER WAY (4) could have the edge as he has stood out in his current shoe configuration. NEO DE FAEL (7) does not lack talent but will need to stay focused. NOBEL DU CHOQUEL (5) comes off a decent win which has been franked by the runner-up and will again have the services of Benjamin Rochard. NISKO D’ELCE (1) is not out of contention as long as he can keep his mind on the job.

  37. LUTHER – A poor 11th in a Class E over 2,750m at Cabourg on 18 August. Based on recent form he is best overlooked
  38. LOVELY KOOL – Disqualified in a Class F over 3,200m at Blain on 20 September. Form is poor and should be ignored
  39. LEO DES PIECES – Disqualified in a Class E over 2,800m at Villedieu Les Poeles on September. Form is erratic and is unlikely to be competitive
  40. LUCIANO VET – Finished 4th in a Class F over 2,650m at Les Sables D’Olonne on 3 September. Makes his mounted debut with Benjamin Rochard up and looks an interesting prospect
  41. LAGON DU DEZERT – A mediocre 7th in a Class E over 2,175m at Vincennes on 5 September. Little in recent form to enthuse over
  42. LOUPIO MENUET – Winner of a Class F over 3,100m at Vibraye on 30 August. Has been running well on turf and could have confidence returning to sand with Alexandre Abrivard in the saddle.
  43. LEDA SAINT LATUIN – An excellent 2nd in a Class F over 2,725m at Pornichet on 24 August. Has had a second wind since changing to mounted racing and should be right there
  44. LE VENT DU HOULET – Not disgraced when third in a Class E at Vincennes over 2,175m on 5 September. Is running consistently well and could place
  45. LALIK – Unplaced in a Class F over 2,875m at Carentan on 11 July. Comes back from a break and has been moderate in his last two races under the saddle
  46. LOTUS DES SABLES – In good form and finished 3rd in a Class E at Villedieu Les Poeles over 2,800m on 13 September. Improved last time but has a lot more to do
  47. LUANA SPORT – Disqualified in a Class E over 2,100m at Vincennes on September. She has ability and could make her mark racing under the saddle for the first time. Will have plated shoes in front
  48. LE TRESOR KRAAILO – A disappointing 6th in a Class D over 2875m at Enghien on 23 June. He is better than his last few runs and teaming up with Eric Raffin needs to be kept safe
  49. LUCAS DE TOURNAI – Disqualified in a Class E over 2,850m at Laval on 0 September. Recent form is moderate and will find it tough to feature
  50. LUMIO FALL – A decent 2nd in a Class E over 2,800m at Villedieu Les Poeles on 13 September. Has done litte wrong recently but does have more to do in this field
    Summary: LLUANA SPORT (11) has her quirks but is not short on talent and could produce a winning performance in her first run under the saddle. LEDA SAINT LATUIN (7) has done little wrong in mounted racing and should be in firing line as should LE TRESOR KRAAILO (12), who is better than his recent form might suggest. LUCIANO VET (4) is another making his debut in a mounted race and has the ability to cause a surprise.

    Summary: A winner at this course two starts ago with Eric Raffin in the sulky, KING BABEL (14) will be looking to bounce back from his recent mishap at Angers. He will need to be wary of the consistent EXPLOIT KRONOS (5). KASSIOPEE DREAM (11), has also won at this course on July 9th so must be respected. KAPITANO DE LOU (15) also has claims.

  23. NIKITA DU PONT – Won in a Class E at Vichy over 2,150m on 23 June. Has won two of just three starts but could need this run returning from a break
  24. NEW LOOK SENOVILLE – In good form and finished third in a Class D at Beaumont-De-Lomagne over 2,400m on 14 September. Should make a bold bid at victory
  25. NEPTUNE DE JEAN – Victorious in a Class D at Feurs over 2,225m on 16 September. Remains in could form and can get involved with the finish

  28. NEUVAINE – Disqualified in three of last four starts, including last time out in Class B at Rambouillet over 2800m on 20 September. Hard to trust and others make more appeal
  29. NICE ATOUT – Excellent runner-up in a Class C at Vincennes over 2,700m on 22 May. Returns from a break but can be a threat if fit enough
  30. NEEL AR MOR – Disqualified in a Class A at Vincennes over 2,175m on 9 June. Has disqualification issues but can be a threat if at best

  33. NICE SPEED – Showed some improvement when a runner-up in Class B at Rochefort-sur-Loire over 3000m on 17 August. Might play a minor role
  34. NOVA TIM – Came home 6th in a Group 2 at Vincennes over 2,700m on 29 August. Needs to do a bit more to beat these rivals
    Summary: NEW LOOK SENOVILLE (8) is in good form and has the confidence of Matthieu Abrivard, so has plenty in his favour. NORTH RIM (1), a quality reappearance candidate, is the obvious danger to our selection. NOBLESSE DE CORDAY (4) is on the up and an obvious threat. NOTEZ LE (3) would have leading claims if keeping his mind on the job so also deserves a place on the shortlist.

  35. RITANO GUAPO – Finished 3rd in a Conditional at Craon over 3000m on the 5th of September 2026. Showed promise in his first run, should be involved in the finish here
  36. ESPOIR NONANTAIS – Not disgraced in 4th in a Conditional at La-Roche-Posay over 2400m on the 13th of September 2026. Should show more and go one better here
  37. FINEST CUP – Came home 4th in a Class 3 at Craon over 3,000m on 5 September 2026. Is capable of improving on his first run and doing well against this line up
  38. NESTORDELABARRIERE – Dam was unraced and this colt comes from a yard that can ready them up on debut. Can run into the money here
  39. NOZAY – Dam was unraced and this newcomer doesn’t make much appeal on debut. Will benefit from the racing experience
  40. MISTER PARAMOUNT – Dam won once over 2200m and this newcomer could be one to keep on the safe side. Follow for any market support
  41. NOUGAWAY – Dam won one race over hurdles and this gelding is likely headed for a career over jumps. Doesn’t make any appeal
  42. NIGHT IN BLOU – Dam raced twice without any success and this newcomer makes no appeal first up. Will struggle here
  43. NEXUS –
  44. LEVANTIN – This son of Tin Horse fails to make any appeal on pedigree and is the first foal. Will need a few needs to tighten up
  45. NAUTILUS DU BANCO – Dam was not the most succesful on the flat, but she was not a stranger to the podium over her career. The run is needed
  46. NATIF DE CARTIGNY – Weak performance in 11th over 3600m at Auteuil in a hurdles event on the 12th of September 2026. Will battle here
  47. NIGHT DU BREUIL – This daughter of Gris De Gris hails from a yard that aren’t known for debut winners. Others make more appeal
  48. MELODIE DE VASSY – Dam was unraced and this newcomer is the first foal to run. Yard aren’t known for debut winners and one to pass by
  49. VENIZZIA – Dam won once over hurdles and it’s no surprise to see her step out over this trip. Could need a run or two
  50. LIBELA DES BAMBOUS – Dam won twice in chasing races but this filly doesn’t appear an a likely debut winner. One to pass by here
    Summary: RITANO GUAPO (1) ran a super race first up and with that experience on his side, he will go very close to winning here. FINEST CUP (3) finished behind the top pick on debut and looks to be held on that but can improve further to earn again. ESPOIR NONANTAIS (2) put up a solid run in debut and has improvement to come which should see him in the money. NAUTILUS DU BANCO (11) makes his debut here for a yard that can get them ready and he warrants plenty of respect.

  66. HYMNE DU GERS – Not reliable and finished 6th in a Group 2 Mounted race at Vincennes over 2175m on 1 september. Better under the saddle and others are preferred
  67. HIDALGO DES NOES – Not reliable and finished fifth in Class D at Rambouillet over 2800m on 20 September. Needs to do a bit more to beat these rivals
  68. IDEAL DU ROCHER – Threatening to win and was runner-up in a Group 3 at this course over 2,775m on 7 September. Can go one place better
    Summary: Based on their performances at this track in the Green Trophy Final, IDEAL DU ROCHER (18) and KING OPERA (15) stand out from the field. IRIS DES ROSEAUX (9) is in good form and has the confidence of his trainer, so it would be risky to oppose him. JE VIENS DU SUD (2), a seven-year-old gelding who rarely disappoints on grass, also deserves plenty of respect.

    Summary: QERDIE DES ROSES (5) has shown good improvement over in his career with 2 successive podium finishes. He will be looking for his first win and can get the job done. NEW BEDE (11) produced an excellent run first up and with more to come, she should be a dangerous player. PACIFIC SKY (3) produced a useful run on debut and looks like the type who will have something to offer here. ZANZARE’S (4) was not disgraced on debut and can run into the money.

    Summary: MUST DE BANVILLE (18) is in excellent form and, with Matthieu Abrivard in his corner, should not disappoint. MILORD DE TERNOIRE (4) and MAGIQUE REVAT (10) are both bidding for a fourth consecutive win and it would be risky to oppose either.

  108. LE SENONNAIS – Ran 5th in a Handicap at Argentan over 2500m on the 10th of June 2026. Not far off them and can earn
  109. SIR PATRICK – Came home 5th in a Limited Handicap at Saint-Cloud over 2500m on the 11th of September 2026. Favourable draw could produce a positive run
  110. PADOVA – Finished 6th in a Limited Handicap at Saint-Cloud over 2500m on the 11th of September 2026. Is out of her depth with this bunch
  111. PRAY UNITED – Ran 7th in a Maiden at Saint Malo over 2,500m on 28 August 2026. Lightly raced this season and could pop up at a price
  112. ADVENTURA –
  113. JOHNNY DRIVE – Mediocre finish in 5th in a Claimer at Mauron over 2600m on the 23rd of August 2026. Is unlikely to produce a competitive run
    Summary: GREY REIGN (5) arrives in decent touch and looks to have every chance of potentially going one spot better here. LILLY’S LIGHT (8) has been very competitive of recent and looks to have obvious claims of featuring once again. AUTOROUTE (4) did not have the best run leading up to this race but should still gather interest as she is much better than her last race and should still earn here. SAINTE SARAH (7) was a no show last time out and can return to prior form which saw her challenge.

  22. SEASEA DE CERES – Filly by Sealiway, the dam was placed a few times on the flat. Stable runners tend to improve for a run or two. She is best watched with the future in mind
  23. BIG HUG – Filly by Ubetterbelieveit, the dam was unraced. She does not appeal as a likely first time out winner and others look more likely
  24. WINNIE CEN – Filly by Churchill, the dam was placed several times. Nice pedigree and she is one to keep an eye on in the betting exchanges for clues
    Summary: HISTORI CHOPE (2) ran a creditable race in a Listed race on her latest start and back in calmer waters today she can shed her maiden tag. Her main danger could be FEEL WELL (4), who has plenty of experience and ran well to finish second on her latest start at Vichy earlier this month.

  41. HEAVEN CITY – Finished 5th in a Class 3 Handicap at Toulouse over 2,400m on 2 September on her latest start. Not to be taken lightly
  42. PLANCKEINSTEIN – Finished 7th in a Class 3 Handicap at Toulouse over 2,400m on 2 September when last appearing. Looks vulnerable
  43. BLACK ULTRA – Not disgraced when third in a Class 2 at La Teste De Buch over 2,400m on 5 September when last appearing. In the mix

  49. MANLY – Won on his last start at this track over 3200m in a Class 4 race on March 27. More needed in what looks a better race
    Summary: CHAI D’OEUVRE (1) won at Toulouse on his latest start with a gutsy effort and has solid claims of making it two in a row. NIKOLAJ (2) could be the one that gives the selection the most concern. He ran with credit at Tarbes when fourth back in May and runs well fresh. HEAVEN CITY (3) ran a better race last time after a few tame efforts since scoring at Pau in January and has to be respected. BLACK ULTRA (5) looks best of the remainder.

  53. SAINT URIEL – Two unplaced runs of late, the latter over 2300m at Dax on August 23 in a maiden race. Others rate higher
  54. LACE FLOWER – Unplaced in a Maiden at Mont De Marsan over 1,600m on 17 August on her second start. Place chance with progress expected
  55. GRITTI – Came home 5th in a Maiden at Mont De Marsan over 1,600m on 17 August on her racecourse bow. She will know more this time but others more persuasive
  56. TYKA – Finished 9th in a Maiden at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat over 1,600m on 4 November 2025 on her latest start. Unlikely to be a threat
  57. FEEL THE LOVE – Finished 8th on her sole start over 1800m at La Teste on May 15 in a conditions race.Vast progress is needed to make the frame
    Summary: VIOLET LEDUC (1) has been performing well without getting his head in front recently and can get a deserved success at the expense of PALO SANTO (2), who will be sharper for a recent run at Lyon Parilly at the start of this month. CIAO NENE (3) has been consistent with numerous placed efforts recently and looks like a sensible option each way. LACE FLOWER (5) is a well bred filly who is worth considering with progress anticipated after only two runs so far.

  62. OFF TO DUBAI – Back in 8th on his last start over 1650m in a claimer on September 20. He lacks consistency and is best avoided

  64. MISS DE PANAME – Unplaced in a Class 3 Handicap at Longchamp over 1,400m on 10 September. Better than her form figures and can be involved
    Summary: ALHAMA RIVER (3) is top rated and with Romain Dubord claiming off his back he looks like the most logical winner in this claimer. His main rival could be MISS DE PANAME (7), who drops in class and is better than recent form figures. VALTRADA (1) has strong each-way credentials after five placed efforts recently. ZELZALA (6) won a Class 4 race in June and is worth consideration on her first run in a claimer.

    Summary: EVERSTAR (3) ran a creditable race on the PSF in a Quinte+ when last seen and will have no concern back on turf today. He can edge this over NOLITO (2), who was a decent second on his latest run at La Teste earlier this month in a Class 3 handicap behind DULINI (6), who can once again give a good account of herself despite being penalised. RAPIDO PRESTO (8) is one for the each-way backers to latch on to.

    Summary: Well bred and qualified in promising style, NATIVE SON DELO (1) will be one of the runners to watch closely on his racecourse debut. NO GAME NO LIFE (3) is racing in a lighter shoeing configuration for the first time in his career and can open his account. Improving with each run, NOE DES MONTS (2) should not be underestimated, while NADJA TER BLEKTE (10), who finished just behind him last time, also has claims.
    SELECTIONS – NATIVE SON DELO (1) – NO GAME NO LIFE (3) – NOE DES MONTS (2) – NADJA TER BLEKTE (10)
