Faulted on return to competition in a 2100m Vincennes Class D last week. Will have come on for the run and, barefoot this time, can get a look-in if Antonin Andre keeps her trotting

Won a 2150m Enghien Class E, at 28/1, on 26 March. Sanctioned on lone start at the venue but is barefoot this time and is not going to be far off the mark

Reassuring 2nd of 16 in a 2825m Lignieres Class F 10 days ago but takes on some good elements here and is unlikely to rock the boat

3rd, at 21/1, in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 5 April after having imposed at Argentan and, with application, can make a big splash

Has returned to competition in good shape, most recently 4th of 15 in a 3125m Angers Class E 2 weeks ago. Should take well to Cordemais conditions and has every chance of bringing home the bacon

Dependable type starting for the first time since coming 2nd to a very good horse in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 10 February. Has won 5 times when shod and has a claim on the trophy

Sent for a rest after faulting in a 2700m Vincennes Class D late-January. Benefits from a good entry, is competitively-shod, and will be expected to finish in the mix

Winner of a 2175m Vincennes monte Class E a fortnight ago. Has no aptitude for the harness game however and can be ruled out

Unraced since being sanctioned in a 3000m Marseille-Borely Class A last November. Sports a new configuration for re-entry but the extra 25m will do him no favours

Race Overview
The big guns start on the front row here, making for a very interesting contest. On paper, JERENAL D'HAMELINE (5) is an obvious choice, given current form and the fact that he races first time barefoot. That being said, JUST A COUET (6) is highly-consistent and even though racing shod for re-entry, still looks competitive, as does JASPE DU DOLLAR (4) who is reunited with David Thomain who won with him at Argentan last month. The complicated JALAPA DU BUISSON (7) has front shoes off for her return from a spell and Eric Raffin knows her well.
