There are 27 horses entered, including the Melbourne Cup winner Verry Elleegant, whose owners are set to cough up £107,000 to add her to the field tomorrow. If the limit remains in place, Very Eleleegent will not get a run as there are 20 higher rated horses in the race.

The field isn't restricted to 20 for safety reasons, but because of a popular bet called a Quinte. That bet is said to account for 20 per cent of betting turnover in France on a given day. It's possible to bet on the Quinta and get 4x £5 free bets within 7 days. There are restrictions on deposit methods and bet types.
