Spotlight :
Delicate trotter (disqualified in 12 of 17 appearances) with undeniable means, though most effective under the saddle. At fault in all 3 comeback outings after a 7-month absence, the latest in a 2175m Vincennes mounted on 25 December

Spotlight :
A delicate trotter with undeniable means - winner over this course and distance in October on his only visit to this track. Showed his form and well-being by finishing 2nd in this shoeing configuration at over 2150m Toulouse on 6 December

Spotlight :
Course-and-distance winner of a similar contest in this barefoot configuration on 27 September, then finished 2nd over 2850m at Mauquenchy in November. Shouldn't be condemned for an underwhelming 9th at Meslay on 19 December

Spotlight :
Complicated hard-knocker who seldom finishes far off the mark/usually acquits himself competitively when remaining wise. Disqualified in 2 of his last 3 starts, the latest at Grenade-sur-Garonne on 15 December - probably for another day

Spotlight :
Honest hard-knocker who is seldom far off the mark but rarely wins (just 1 victory from 50 starts). Didn't go unnoticed when finishing 5th (shod) over 2150m at Argentan on 26 December - for lovers of outsiders

Honest veteran mare with sound references under these conditions (shod) at a higher level and seldom far off the mark. Absent since finishing 9th over 2625m at Cherbourg on 19 August - best watched for now

Spotlight :
Consistent hard-knocker with references under these conditions/in this barefoot configuration at a higher level. Should not be hastily condemned for finishing 10th in a stronger 2175m race at Vincennes on 3 January - attractive outsider

Honest hard-knocker with sound references/form credentials under these conditions and in this barefoot configuration at a higher level - seldom far off the mark. Didn't go unnoticed (7th) over 2350m at Angers on 8 January and can pop up

Course-and-distance winner at a higher level in this unshod configuration on 17 November. Unplaced in 2 subsequent appearances and disqualified in her latest outing at Angers over 2350m on 8 January - shouldn't be hastily condemned

Spotlight :
Consistent mare with the form and experience to play a leading role in a race of this nature but is most effective unshod. Acquitted herself well in defeat (7th) at a higher level over 2100m at Vincennes on 7 December - not taken lightly

Honest veteran trotter with sound references under these conditions at a higher level - seldom finishes far off the mark. Wasn't at all disgraced at a higher level when finishing 7th over 2175m at Vincennes on 3 January so must be respected
