Honourable but unthreatening 9th of 16 in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class E on comeback 3 weeks ago. Front shoes off for the first time and, already a course-and-distance winner, will be worth monitoring

Comfortable winner of a 2650m Class F here on comeback early-March. Will have come on for the run and can double her money

Showed improvement when 2nd of 10 in a 2675m Class F at Le Mont-Saint-Michel on 7 April. Competitively-shod this time and, with stride in check, could pleasantly surprise

Opened her 2024 account in a 3125m Angers Class F a month back. In better company this time but still looks capable of getting a look-in

7th, behind KALINE D'ERPION (16), in a 2700m Class E at Le Croise-Laroche on 1 April and will struggle to make any impact

Useful filly that finished 4th of 13 in a 2200m Caen Class E on 21 March. Races with just front shoes this time and looks a major player

Went into her winter break on a high note and just 10 days ago was sanctioned on re-entry in a 2875m Argentan Class E. First time barefoot but others still preferred

Showed improvement when 5th of 9 in a 2750m Class E at La Capelle earlier this month. New formula this time but still has too much ground to make up

Won at Vivaux in February but sanctioned in both since, most recently a 2750m Ecommoy Class E on 1 April, and even with modified shoeing, will have few takers

Sanctioned, when favourite, in a 2750m Class E at La Capelle earlier this month and can more than make amends if Pierre Belloche keeps her trotting.

Has not been seen out since coming 2nd of 8 in a 2700m Vincennes Class E on 31 December. Is confirmed here but perhaps best to hold off

Easily won a 2500m Reims Class F on 8 April. Has turned a corner since moving yards and, while unlikely to repeat, should still acquit herself competitively

3rd, a place behind KALINE D'ERPION (16), in a 2700m Class E at Le Croise-Laroche on 1 April. Is reunited with Eric Raffin and is not going to be far from the action
Mme Lea De Bellaigue

Has turned a corner since starting to race barefoot, latterly 2nd in a 2700m Class E at Le Croise-Laroche earlier in the month. Benefits from a superb engagement and is unlikely to disappoint

Race Overview
After having shown considerable potential last season, KIARA MAURICIENNE (3) won over 2650m here on her return to competition and looks good enough to repeat. Benjamin Rochard will nevertheless be wary of KABALA QUICK (11) who could also have imposed on re-entry had she not faulted, and the in-form KASSIOPEIA (7) who races unshod-behind for the first time. Very unlucky last time out, a barefoot KISS ME DE JEAN (12) is due some compensation.

3 - 11 - 7
