Wahdan

One of three representing last year's winning stable. Expected to put his last of four finish in the Listed Prix de Suresnes won by Fast Tracker behind him, unsuitably heavy ground was against him that day.

2

Ramadan

The Christopher Head-trained colt marked himself down as a classic contender when he followed up a wide margin season opening success by landing G3 Prix de Fontainebleau over 1600m before beaten under two lengths when fifth in the French 2,000 Guineas.

3

Grecian Storm

One of the three Jean-Claude Rouget team he made a satisfactory winning seasonal return in very heavy ground before third place in the G3 Pix de Guiche (1800m), the way he performed that day indicating he will be better over this longer trip.

4

First Look

A winner at Chantilly on final run late last year. Beaten one length into second at Chantilly in one of the recognised Jockey-Club trials, the G3 Prix de Guiche (1800m) three weeks ago. Not an obvious leading chance.

5

Dollar Index

Sold for a modest 36,000 euros as a yearling he overcame heavy ground to land his warm up down in Bordeaux. He then turned up at Chantilly to finish second, seven lengths behind Fast Tracker, in the Prix de Suresnes, and has something to find on that form.

6

Mondo Man

Last seen in early April when second to another Jockey Club rival At Last in the G3 Prix La Force (1800m) at ParisLongchamp. Don't expect to see him arriving on the scene until late on as he is best when held up.

7

Sunway

A leading contender. Ended juvenile campaign in style, winning a G1 (1600m) in France last October. Beaten at odds-on in G3 prep race on May 6, but booked his ticket with a sparkling gallop last week.

8

Look De Vega

One of the main home runners. Aiming to emulate his sire Lope de Vega. The 2010 Prix du Jockey Club winner's son is unbeaten in two starts, the last a classy performance in his prep race over 2000m at ParisLongchamp in May and was confirmed after pleasing in a racecourse gallop over Sunday's course and distance this week.

9

Alcantor

Disappointed on seasonal comeback when favourite in G3 (1600m) at Newmarket in April. Third in the French 2,000 Guineas (1600m) he has reportedly progressed since and is bred to stay this extra 500m trip.

10

Ghostwriter

Clive Cox's highly regarded English runner was a staying on fourth in the English 2,000 Guineas, his trainer predicting the extra distance in France's premier classic will bring out the best in his colt who finished his juvenile campaign with a third win from three in G2 company.

11

Diego Velazquez

Aidan O'Brien's challenger, who runs here rather than the Epsom Derby 24 hours earlier, turns up after finishing a close up fourth in the French 2,000 Guineas. Winner of the first two of his three outings as a juvenile O'Brien is praying for decent ground for one of the likely favourites.

12

Arrow Eagle

The half-brother to last year's Prix du Jockey Club hero Ace Impact. Began 2024 with two quickfire wins on the all-weather at Cagnes-sur-Mer. Then beaten a length and a half by Sosie over 2150m in April.

13

Fast Tracker

One of the key home hopes he has a strong chance after a wide margin win over Dollar Index in the Prix de Suresnes over course and distance, the race Ace Impact won last year before landing the Jockey-Club and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.

14

Atlast

Put up a decent effort to land the G3 Prix La Force (1800m) in April before failing to build on that on his Jockey Club warm up when last of five in the G3 Prix de Guiche behind two of his rivals here First Look and Grecian Storm.

15

Sosie

One of three Andre Fabre-trained runners. After a quiet two year-old campaign he caught the eye on his comeback with a win over Arrow Eagle in a race over 2150m at ParisLongchamp.
