Spotlight :
A previous winner here; he accounted for five of his rivals over 1m4½f at Deauville (handicap) three weeks ago; conceivably will cope with big hike in the weights and should go close.

Spotlight :
Gave it a good shot when a close fourth four weeks ago (Deauville) in a claimer; often been there or thereabouts lately; does not win very often; others more likely as has a lot on his plate here.

Spotlight :
C&D has proven suitable before; can be a player at this level; finished sixth 19 days ago albeit only beaten 2½l at Deauville over 1m4½f (handicap); should not be far away if replicating the best of his form.

Spotlight :
Behind Ideal King at Deauville when tenth of 16 over 1m4½f (handicap) 19 days ago; can be on the premises if finding his best form and handicapper has cut him some slack.

Spotlight :
Fair effort (beaten 1½l) over 2m here (handicap) in December when just behind Warelia; suited by this C&D; all wins have come on right-handed tracks; drops in trip.

Spotlight :
Came home seventh, beaten 9l, at Deauville over 2m1f (handicap) two months ago; this line-up contains some strong opposition so makes little appeal.

Spotlight :
Fifth of six beaten 12l at Nantes over 1m7½f (handicap, very soft) in September; infrequent winner and form lately has been a mixed bag; returns from a layoff; this is competitive and has some questions to answer.

Spotlight :
Landed a narrow success in a handicap when back to 1m2f at Pau last Tuesday; string of near-misses of late; handicapper had a say but jockey's claim helps offset that so one to be interested in.

Spotlight :
Can boast winning form over this C&D; came out on top by 2½l over 1m4½f at Deauville (handicap) three weeks ago; conceivably will cope with big hike in the weights and has to be respected.

Spotlight :
Finished fourth but only beaten just under 2l over 1m4½f at Deauville (handicap) three weeks ago; has won two of 19 career starts; ought to give it a shot.

Towards the rear (sent off 100-30) over 1m4f at Pau (handicap) four weeks ago; has won four of 37 career starts; hot jockey booked; this line-up contains some strong opposition so makes little appeal.

Spotlight :
Safely held at Deauville 19 days ago behind Ideal King over 1m4½f (handicap) when 11th of 16; winner of six races (1m4f-1m7f) but not always shown an awful lot since winning a handicap at Deauville in November; easy to oppose as now looks to be past his prime.

Spotlight :
Fair effort when three-quarters of a length fourth to Le Gast upped to 1m4½f last month at Deauville in a conditions race; all wins have come going right handed; boasts winning form over C&D; this looks a fair heat so passed over.
