Encouraging 5th of 11 in a 2650m Oraison Class E last month. Modified shoeing this time but she nevertheless faces a stiff test

Won at La Capelle late-March before faulting in a 2800m Strasbourg Class G a week later and will struggle to make her mark

Showed early promise but went off the boil some time ago and is hard to recommend after a modest comeback outing (9th) over 2650m at Carpentras on 25 April. Others preferred
Mlle J Triomphe

Sanctioned in both starts this year, most recently a 2600m Class G here 3 weeks ago. Front pads fitted but can still expect to have few friends
Patrice Clouvel

Unremarkable mare that came 5th to JIPSY ROYALE (10) in a 2850m Lignieres claimer a fortnight ago but still has a lot more to find
J Cuoq

Totally out of the picture in all 4 starts this year, latterly sanctioned in a 2650m Saint-Galmier Class F, and can be written off
Ecurie Jean Michel Gaudin

Showed marked improvement when 3rd of 10 in a 2650m Saint-Galmier Class F last month and, barefoot this time, will be worth monitoring
B Thomas

One of the more complicated elements here but has some ability. Sanctioned in a 2600m Class G here last month but it is only a question of time before she comes good again
Ecurie Du Vieux Chene

Won over 2000m here before losing her action in a 2650m Class F at L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, when full of running, but with application, can set the record straight
Ecurie Romuald Mourice
F

-
Won 2 claimers in a row, most recently over 2850m at Lignieres. Clearly in better company this time but should still be in a position to challenge for a place in the first 5
Yannick Dreyfuss

Sanctioned, with gas in the tank, in a 2050m Feurs Class E 3 weeks ago but will have the measure of most if she can stay focused
P Derville

7th of 8 in a 2050m Feurs Class E last month, having briefly lost her action but, on better behaviour can put things right
Ecurie Du Vieux Chene

-
Not entirely without merit but sanctioned, when never threatening, in a 2600m Saint-Galmier Class E early-March, and is unlikely to shake things up
Ecurie H D Trot
F

/-
Met no opposition en route to victory last month in a 2300m Marseille-Borely Class E. Incurs the penalty but is in the form of her life and can make it 3 on the trot
Ecurie Du Centre Est
F

Has so far this term failed to replicate previous form, most recently last of 7 in a 2650m Oraison Class E, and will need to raise her game

Race Overview
JUST BEAUTIFUL (14) has built on the promise of an encouraging comeback 2nd to win consecutive recent outings and she is good value to complete the hat-trick under these conditions. On the evidence of her success two starts back, JONCQUIERE (9) is capable of bouncing back from her last-start disqualification to pose a threat, though the same could also be said of JADE DE PAME (11) who still had resources at the time of her recent faux pas. JIPSY ROYALE (10) lines up here after back-to-back successes in claiming races and ought to remain competitive even at this level.
Selection:
14 - 9 - 11
