Good, consistent filly that trotted 3rd to KAHIA DE LA CROIX (4) in a Class D over track and trip a month ago. Shoes on this time though and best to hold off

Was never at her ease before faulting in 9 April race of reference, and others easier to trust

No slouch on a good day but modest 5th of 9 in a 2500m Reims Class D mid-April and is not about to shake things up

A revelation since starting to race barefoot, most recently winning a Class D, with ease, over track and trip, and is in with a realistic shout of repeating

Sanctioned in 9 April race of reference but is otherwise a very talented filly and will not be far from the action if Etienne Dubois keeps her trotting

Somewhat below-par 6th of 8 finishers, behind KIVALA RENARDIER (12), in a Class C over track and trip early-April. Won under these conditions for Pierre-Yves Verva in February and can pick up another cheque

Sports a new configuration after faulting in early-April race of reference. Adrien Lamy reining this time but still no more than an outside chance

Has looked decidedly ordinary this year, most recently last but one in the race of reference, and will have nothing to offer

Raced well on re-entry when 3rd of 10 in a 2850m Feurs Class C on 8 April. Has references here but takes on an elevated bunch this time around and can expect little support

Back under harness after finishing a flattering 5th of 7 in a 2175m monte Gr.2 recently and, with shoes on, will not be troubling the judge

4th of 9 in a 2625m Class B at La Rochelle 2 weeks ago, but has little love for the Vincennes main track and can be passed over

Reassuring 3rd of 8 finishers in a Class C over course and distance on 9 April. Shoes off, entrusted to Eric Raffin, also for the first time, and is unlikely to disappoint. Chance

Winner at this level earlier in the year but has failed to confirm in 2 since. Left a good impression despite being sanctioned in a Class A over course and distance late-March and is not to be overlooked

hDhDh1h0-h7h8
Respectable but unthreatening 8th of 10, behind KINASSE DE VIVOIN (11), in a Class A under these conditions on 23 March. Drops back in category though and can get a look-in

Makes her first appearance since coming 2nd of 10 in a 2850m Class B here 2 months ago. Well-engaged and, in similar form, can play a prominent role

8th of 9, on re-entry, in a Class B over course and distance 8 days ago. Has an excellent entry and can finally be rewarded with a deserved success

Race Overview
Unshod-all-4 following a necessary freshener, KEMIA DU CHENE (16) enjoys an entry-made-in-heaven and, under these conditions, looks a marginally better bet than recent course-and-distance winner, KAHIA DE LA CROIX (4), who returns to the venue on a 4-timer. KIVALA RENARDIER (12) beat a number of these early last month and racing first time barefoot, looks a serious proposition. KOKOTE (15) can occasionally prove a handful but is hard to fault when focused and must be considered one of the main protagonists.
