Was on a fine run of form before coming 13th behind PICTURE PERFECT (5) in a 2700m Class D here a month ago. Reverts to a previous formula and is not going to be too far from the action

Switches back to the harness code after faulting in a 2175m monte Class D here late last month. Has been handed a good draw and, proven under these conditions, will have a lot to contribute

Disappointing on the whole this year, latterly sanctioned in a 2850m Laval Class D on 5 June and, in spite of a good draw, will struggle to make her mark

Quality Italian trotter making French debut after running 2nd over 1600m in Naples early last month. Is first time barefoot, well-placed in front, with Franck Nivard reining, and must be taken seriously

Below-par 6th over track and trip before reassuring with success over 2400m at Waregem on 26 May. Is confirmed under these conditions though and, unshod-all-4, must be afforded respect

Sanctioned in a 2600m Nancy Class E a fortnight back. Should not be too hastily judged though, has previously run JENTIL DIESCHOOT (7) close, and looks a player

2nd of 9 in a 2600m Nancy Class E 2 weeks ago. Is unbeaten with his driver and, if he turns, should be able to wrap this up

Surprise 3rd of 14 in a 2850m Class D here on 21 May. Shod differently this time, starts wide on front line, and is unlikely to shake things up

A model of consistency over past 3 months, most recently 3rd of 14 in a 2150m Vichy Class D earlier this month, and can make a big splash if David Thomain positions her early

Sanctioned even before the start in a Class E over course and distance on 17 May. On the back row and unlikely to generate much interest

3rd over track and trip mid-May before coming 4th over 2400m at Waregem when prepping for this last week. Has never disappointed when barefoot and is not entirely out of the picture

8th of 11 finishers, on comeback, in a 2700m Class C here a fortnight ago. Preparing for a monte campaign and will have nothing to contribute

Went close under these conditions late-December but has been off the boil since, latterly 7th, behind PICTURE PERFECT (5), in 10 May race of reference and is not about to spring any surprises
Mme Renata Destri

Returns to Vincennes after winning over 1660m in Bologna. Has placed just once in 3 at Vincennes and the draw only compounds matters

Has made no impression since coming south, most recently 12th in race of reference and, even going barefoot, still looks out of her depth

Quality import that missed out by little in a Class E over course and distance mid-May. Steps up in class but the tough draw relegates her to a minor place prospect

Race Overview
JENTIL DIESCHOOT (7) has been in flying form this year, is reunited with Eric Raffin who won with him last month, and has a fine opportunity to impose for the first time racing left-handed. Third to him at Vichy before faulting at Nancy, JEU MAJYC (6) has yet to be tested over 2100m here but will be fully fit and, from the front line must be considered a priority. JALMAROSA (9) is forced to start wide but has shown a liking for the main track and, in current form, is very hard to ignore. Confirmed under these conditions and first time barefoot, the well-positioned JUNON DE LOU (2) will be expected to play an active role.
Selection:
7 - 6 - 9
