5th of 6, on re-entry, over 2300m at Mons a fortnight ago. Has references racing clockwise and, barefoot for the occasion, should be able to give this a good go

Quality element but seldom far from faulting, most recently in a 2700m Vincennes Class E. Has had time to get his house in order though and will have his chances if Gabriele Gelormini can keep him trotting

Tricky mare that came in 3rd of 9 finishers, at 115/1, in a 2500m Class F here last week but will be hard-pushed to confirm

Unraced since coming 8th of 10 finishers in a 2850m Vincennes Class D last June and will need the run

Races right-handed for the first time after coming 4th of 5 finishers over 2100m at Wolvega on 6 April. Not as good as many others here but always gives her best and could pleasantly surprise

Has turned a corner recently, finishing close runner-up to JACO LE GRAND (9) in a 2150m Mauquenchy Class F a fortnight ago. Form is headed in the right direction and looks competitively well-in

10th of 11 over 1650m in Milan earlier this month. Barefoot this time, as he was at Vincennes 2 months ago, but chances of a repeat performance appear slim

4th of 10 in a Class F over 2550m here on 21 March, a month after imposing at Amiens. Has never disappointed at Reims and is not about to return home empty-handed

Won a 2150m Mauquenchy Class F a fortnight ago when associated with Mathieu Mottier for the first time. Shoes off again and the double is not out of the question

4th of 9 in a 2600m Nancy Class E late last month. Has never delivered at Reims but current form bodes well for her prospects. One to note

3rd, a place behind JUNE DE FLORANGE (13), in a 2800m Class F at La Guerche-de-Bretagne on 24 March after having won here a week earlier. Similarly benefits from a good entry and can keep his Reims record intact

8th of 13 in a 2575m Saint-Brieuc Class E 3 weeks ago. Still in 'conditioning mode' and best to hold off

Has done nothing but encourage since the layoff, most recently a fast-finishing 2nd of 13 in a 2625m Agen-Le Passage Class F 10 days ago, and may well be the one to beat this time

Race Overview
Following a well-earned break, JUNE DE FLORANGE (13) took not time getting back in shape, left a particularly good impression at Agen recently, is sent out with a new configuration, and has a realistic chance of winning this. Pierrot Beasse can nevertheless expect to encounter significant resistance from JEAN MAJYC (11) who won here last month, and JACO LE GRAND (9) who struck gold at Mauquenchy when barefoot for the first time. DE GAULLE GRIF (2) has bags of ability but after a brace of Vincennes sanctions, goes clockwise this time and will be no pushover if he takes to the new profile.
Selection:
13 - 11 - 9
