Spotlight :
Proven at this level, confirmed with this shoe-fitting and is in good form/physical condition. Confirmed as much when 4th over 2725m at Graignes on 12 November - on the shortlist

Spotlight :
Experienced hard-knocker with sound references in the claiming category, which include finishing 7th in back-to-back course-and-distance claimers recently, the latest on 12 November. Minor role

Spotlight :
Out of sorts and underwhelming in recent performances (soundly beaten at Graignes over 2725m on 2 November) but should, judged on his earlier form/references, fare better in this grade. Keep safe

Spotlight :
Versatile mare with sound references in both codes but continues to blow hot and cold - finished 2nd over 2550m last month at Reims but unplaced (7th) over 2150m at Mauquenchy on 10 November. Unbeaten in 2 starts at this level

Spotlight :
Delicate but versatile trotter with sound references/form credentials in both disciplines at a higher level - usually does well when avoiding disqualification. Confirmed as much when 5th here in a stronger race over 2100m on 4 November

Unreliable and out of sorts recently, albeit at a higher level - finished 12th over 2500m at Reims on 14 November. Shouldn't be underestimated at this level

Last-start winner over the same course and distance with this unshod configuration and in his first appearance at this level on 12 November. Candidate for success

Spotlight :
Honest hard-knocker with nothing to prove in the claiming category. Finished 3rd in a course-and-distance claimer on 12 November and should play another leading role

Spotlight :
Complicated mare whose experiences and references at a higher level will stand her in good stead, if she can remain wise (avoid disqualification). Didn't go unnoticed when 6th over 2400m at Beaumont on 3 September

Spotlight :
Lightly raced trotter with the undeniable means to be competitive at this level. Finished 9th over 2400m at Amiens on 15 November but shouldn't be hastily condemned - an attractive outsider in his first start in the claiming category

Experienced but unreliable mare soundly beaten in her last 2 starts, albeit at a higher level - finished 11th over 2850m at Mauquenchy on 17 November. Drops in class (first appearance at this level) with shoes removed - not taken lightly
