For a smooth strictly convex planar billiard of positive curvature, a continuous foliation of a full grazing annulus by individually invariant essential curves forces an analytic boundary and a jointly analytic collar of smooth strictly convex caustics. The physical-collar rigidity theorem proved in the companion article then implies that the table is an ellipse.
