Age 3
=Sent for a break after dominating the Jockey-Club but lacklustre 3rd of 5 to Sosie (13) in 2400m Prix Niel on re-entry 3 weeks ago. Must be forgiven that run and can be backed with confidence this time. ChanceLast Runs

=High-class mare that won Pretty Polly Stakes late-June and most recently repeated with a courageous 2400m Gr.1 Prix Vermeille success here mid-September. Up against the colts this time but still has a good hand to playLast Runs

Age 3
=Irish Derby winner that was by no means disgraced when 4th of 8, a place behind Shin Emperor (10), in 2000m Gr.1 Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown 3 weeks ago. Excels over 2400m and will have his chancesLast Runs

=Comes into her first 2400m start off back of 3 straight Gr.1 victories, latterly winning 2000m Gr.1 Prix Jean Romanet on 18 August. Handed a shocker of a draw but 8-times Arc winner, Andre Fabre, knows what it takesLast Runs

=Gr.1 winner at 2 that had not confirmed until running out 5L winner of 2400m Grosser Preis von Berlin at Hoppegarten on 11 August. Yutaka Take called up for the ride and, knowing Longchamp well will only work in his favourLast Runs

=Failed to confirm his Prince of Wales's S. run when 11th of 13, behind Bluestocking (7), in 2500m Juddmonte International at York on 21 August. Has had time to get his house in order, has the rail, and is due some redemptionLast Runs

=Honest filly that ran 2nd to Bluestocking (7) in 2400m Gr.1 Prix Vermeille here mid-September. Beat a number of good horses that day, goes over any ground, has been handed the 4-spot, and looks an interesting outsiderLast Runs

Age 4
=11th of 15 in 2023 edition but a different horse this season, latterly winning 2400m Gr.1 Grosser Preis von Baden at Iffezheim on 1 September. Cannot be considered a priority but breaks from 2-hole and will generate some interestLast Runs

VERDICT: Majestic winner of the Prix du Jockey-Club in early-June, Look De Vega (9) was clearly not himself in the Prix Niel but the Lerners have been confident about the progress he has made since and, if the case, can bring the Maisons-Laffitte-based team a maiden Arc. Winner of the Niel, 2 months after carrying off the Grand Prix de Paris, Sosie (13), drawn 5, is a serious proposition, but so too is the similarly well-drawn Bluestocking (7) who bids to become the first Vermeille-Arc winner since Treve in 2013. Jean-Claude Rouget, who won last year's edition with Ace Impact, sends out Delius (12) who bagged 2nd in the Niel on his first start for 2 months, and is sure to be at his peak for the occasion.
