Lost his action in a 2150m Enghien Class E late last month but is hard to fault when focused. Has never shown much liking for Caen but in current condition is hard to ignore

Undeniably capable but disappointing 6th in a 2875m Argentan Class E late-March and will need to find significantly more
Ecurie Comte P De Montesson

Produced some decent results this year before faulting in a 2875m Argentan Class E a month ago. Appreciates Caen and, with application, can get in on the action

9th of 10 finishers in a 2850m Laval Class E on 30 March. Sanctioned in both previous starts here and looks outclassed

Quality mare making first appearance since coming 4th of 13 in a 2850m Vincennes Class D early-January. Shoes on and best to hold off

Useful sort that was sanctioned on comeback in a 2625m Cherbourg Class E earlier in the month but goes barefoot this time and is unlikely to disappoint

Pleasant 2nd of 12 in a 2750m Class E at La Capelle 3 weeks ago but a repeat seems unlikely

8th of 9, on re-entry, in a 2500m Reims Class D 10 days ago and can be confidently disregarded

5th of 13 in a 2400m Amiens Class E early last month. Has had time to sharpen up and, with Eric Raffin reining, will be dangerous
Y Desmet

2h7h9-h0h0
10th of 12 in a 2875m Argentan Class E, when being conditioned, late last month. Out of his category here but is shod competitively and will be worth monitoring

Returns to the harness code after coming 3rd of 12 in a 2800m Tours monte Class F 2 weeks ago and while not a priority, still looks an interesting outside chance

Occasionally a handful but otherwise very useful. Close 2nd in a 2700m Vincennes Class E on 9 April and, with form maintained, can bring home the bacon

Pleasantly surprising 3rd of 13 in a 2800m Rambouillet Class E 3 weeks ago, on first appearance for almost 9 months, and is eminently capable of winning a race of this nature

12th behind JOKER MADRIK (13) in a 2800m Rambouillet Class E 3 weeks ago and, even though reverting to a proven formula, can still not be considered a player

10th, a place behind JULIE DU CLOS (14), in a 2875m Argentan Class E a month back and will have little to offer

Sanctioned in a 2800m Rambouillet Class E earlier in the month. Front pads fitted for the first time but is unlikely to make any impact

Race Overview
Quite a contest in prospect here, with the recently reinvigorated JULIA D'AMOUR (12) returning to a track she likes and should have the measure of the boys this time, although JOKER MADRIK (13) gave an excellent account on re-entry and will have come on for the run. JACKPOT D'ORGUEIL (9) is no slouch either and, barefoot for the occasion, looks to be in with a realistic shout. JINGALO DU CHENE (6) has a race under his belt, is barefoot with David Thomain reining, and will be competitive for a place on the podium.
