Trounced on debut last month before losing his action in a 2775m Elbeuf claimer last Sunday and is unlikely to generate much, if any, support

Modest sort that finished 6th of 8 in a 2750m Toulouse Class F mid-March. Hind pads fitted this time but others still easier to back

Smartly won a 2675m claimer at Le Mont-Saint-Michel on 7 April. Nivard back in the wagon and will justifiably bid for a place in the frame

Sanctioned, when unsupported, in a 2575m Saint-Brieuc Class E on 26 March. Is not without merit, sports 4 pads this time, and can get a look in

Honest colt that came 5th to LANCELOT VENESI (3) in a 2675m claimer at Le Mont-Saint-Michel on 7 April. Has placed just once in 11 racecourse appearances but the presence of Gelormini will reassure. Minor place chance

Easy winner of a 2050m Feurs Class F 10 days ago, on just 2nd racecourse appearance. Entrusted to champion driver this time and, while unlikely to impose, can still make her way into the first 3

Lost her action, when heavily-backed, in a 2675m claimer at Le Mont-Saint-Michel 11 days ago. Has ample ability and can play a leading role if she deigns to stay in stride

Won a Bihorel-las-Rouen claimer last month before coming 6th to LANCELOT VENESI (3) in a 2675m claimer at Le Mont-Saint-Michel 11 days ago. 4 pads fitted this time and, already a winner for Lebourgeois, must be respected

Has not been seen out since coming 4th of 9 finishers in a 2100m Vincennes claimer on 23 February. Has solid references at this level though and will be expected to bring home the bacon

Sanctioned in a 2700m Vincennes Class C on 2 April, making it 6 from last 7 and can be confidently written off

Race Overview
Just once out of the picture in this category, LISA DE CHANLECY (9) will be fresh for her Enghien debut and it would be some surprise to see her bested. The somewhat more complicated LARIFLETTE (7) is arguably better racing clockwise but she is fitted with 4 pads for the first time and should have the measure of most. LYRA DU METZ (6) showed a different side to herself at Feurs recently and the Eric Raffin-factor must be taken into account this time. LANCELOT VENESI (3) may well have found his niche in the claiming division and with his handler back in the sulky, is not about to let the side down.
Selection:
9 - 7 - 6
