Unremarkable 3rd of 5 finishers in a 2675m Chatillon-sur-Chalaronne Class E on 25 March and appears to be out of his league

Improving sort that came 2nd in a 2925m Cagnes Class E on 23 February. Takes on the colts this time however and chances limited

Superb winner of a 2700m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche on 25 March. Is never far from faulting but, if applied, can give LEI E BELLA (8) a run for her money

Sanctioned in the early stages of a 2050m Class D here on 28 March. Has merit though, starts on the front row, and is not to be underestimated

Won at Saint-Galmier before finishing 3rd, behind LE MAGNIFIQUE DJOC (6) in a 2050m Class D here 2 weeks ago. 25m worse off this time and, although not expected to impose, should nevertheless acquit herself honourably

Decent 2nd of 5 finishers in a 2050m Class D here fortnight ago. Incurs the handicap but still has the wherewithal to finish in the mix

Sprang quite the surprise when winning a 2300m Marseille-Borely Class D, at 100/1, 2 weeks ago. Unlikely to repeat but, with form maintained, should give a competitive account

Missed out by little on the double in a 2600m Saint-Galmier Class D early last month and even with an extra 25m to travel, is still the pick of the field

Good future prospect that faulted early in a 2175m Vincennes Class B 12 days ago but the option to run her right-handed this time may be just the ticket to her redemption

Race Overview
A progressive filly that beat the boys here in January, LEI E BELLA (8) came close to repeating at Saint-Galmier early last month and, even from the back line, looks the horse to beat. That said, LOUMIODO (3) made good on his promise at Le Croisa-Laroche late-March, is 25m better off, and will have his chances if Junior Guelpa keeps him trotting. LONDON (9) is not the easiest of horses to handle but has buckets of ability and will have an important part to play if she gets off on the right foot. It took a while but LIZZY DE JOUDES (7) opened her account in style a fortnight back and, if still on the boil, can again make the frame.
