No longer the horse he once was, latterly 9th of 11 in a 2875m Enghien claimer, and will have few friends

Not easy to knock when unshod and focused. Good 2nd in a Classe E under these conditions late last month but in this company, will be facing a stiffer test

5th of 9 finishers in a 2650m Bordeaux Class E last Monday. Has never managed to finish a race when barefoot and cannot be considered a contender

Clearly back at the top of his game since the spell, most recently 4th behind JASMIN PHIL (15) in a 2875m Enghien Class D a fortnight back. Theo Duvaldestin reining this time and will not be far from the action

Sprang a 75/1 surprise when 3rd, a place behind JAFAR DE FAEL (3), in a Class E over course and distance late last month, but a repeat seems improbable

Sent for a spell after finishing 10th of 14 in a 2150m Enghien Class D on 8 March. Shoes on for comeback and will have little to offer

Can prove a handful but has buckets of ability. Untroubled winner of a 2725m Lisieux Class E on 20 March and, with application, can repeat

Has ability but appears to have come off the boil, most recently faulting in a 2850m Vincennes Class D on 23 April, and others easier to back

Mare of considerable ability but has not been seen out since coming 7th of 10 in a 2875m Enghien Class C last July, and will need the run

10th of 13 in a 2875m Argentan Class E 3 weeks ago, continuing his poor form. Modified shoeing but still not an obvious choice

Seldom fails to deliver when barefoot and focused. 3rd when still being conditioned, in a 2800m Strasbourg Class E early-April, and racing barefoot this time will be a serious proposition

Quality element but sanctioned in last 2, most recently in a 2625m Cherbourg Class E on 1 April, but on better behaviour can play an important role

Serious sort that would have made the frame in a 2100m CVincennes Class D on 12 April had Eric Raffin kept his trotting. Franck Nivard takes over and can win this if his charge stays focused

Good 3rd of 11 in a 2875m Enghien Class D on 20 April. Unlikely to get his nose in front but can still make the first 5

Placed 3rd over track and trip before coming 8th of 12 in a 2700m Vincennes Class D a month ago and, while not a priority, will appreciate the return to racing clockwise

Race Overview
Winner of two of his last three, last time going right-handed, JOUR D'ERABLE (8) will be reined by Yoann Lebourgeois for the occasion and is expected to confirm. JERICHO (14) would have finished 3rd in Paris last time had he stayed in stride, his form is sure, and will be dangerous if Franck Nivard keeps him trotting. JOKER D'OCCAGNES (12) has taken no time showing his condition and, barefoot this time, can again finish close. JO DIBAH (13) has nothing to prove in this category and will figure prominently if he can stay focused.
Selection:
8 - 14 - 12
