Got back in the winners’ circle, on turf, 12 days ago when securing a 2800m Rambouillet Class F but, in this company, will struggle to confirm

Left a very good impression when 4th of 12 in a 2825m Chartres Class E on 2 June. Well-placed behind the car and must be considered a leading contender

2nd of 12 in a 2900m Amiens Class E 8 days ago. Sports a new configuration, and is well-placed on the front line, but others still preferred

Good 3rd of 9 finishers in a 2300m Marseille-Borely Class E 2 weeks ago but has no particular liking for Vincennes and can be passed over
F Guillemain

Sanctioned early in a 2825m Cordemais Class E on 21 April. Has been given time to freshen up, is useful over 2100m, and should have the wherewithal to compete for the win

Sprang quite the surprise when 3rd of 10 finishers in a 2800m Rambouillet Class E last weekend and backs up with nothing to contribute

10th of 14, on comeback 3 weeks ago, in a 2600m Nancy Class E, and will have nothing to contribute

Disappointing for some time, most recently 9th of 13 finishers in a Class D over track and trip a fortnight back, and can be ruled out

3rd under these conditions late-May but failed to confirm last Sunday when 6th of 10 finishers, behind FALCO DU HAMEL (6), in a 2800m Rambouillet Class E. Poor draw and chances limited
D Brochon

Lacklustre last of 8 in a Class D over track and trip 2 weeks ago. Has decent references over 2100m here and even from the 2nd line, can play a prominent role
Ch Audouin

7h0h5h4h2hD
Was progressing nicely following the break before faulting in a 2350m Angers Class E 10 days ago, and can even win this if Eric Raffin gets him around unscathed

Following a brace of return runs, she came 3rd of 15 in a 2800m Pontchateau Class E 2 weeks ago and despite the draw, still looks competitive for a first-5 cheque

Occasionally a handful but reassured when 3rd of 9 in a Class D over course and distance a fortnight ago and will not be available at 30/1 on this occasion

Came 9th of 17 in a Landivisiau Class F earlier this month. Yet to recreate last summer’s form but returns to a distance he appreciates and, in spite of a poor draw, can still get a look-in
Mme Fl Fracas

Has been enjoying a decent run of form, most recently 4th of 16 in a Class D under these conditions 2 weeks ago. Handed an unfavourable draw though and not an obvious choice
L Aubert

Blows hot and cold but came a reassuring 3rd of 14 in a 2600m Nancy Class E 3 weeks ago, but the draw does him no favours

Race Overview
In excellent shape since returning to the track last month, GUCCI DE BARB (2) races barefoot for the big occasion, will be at peak fitness, and can have his day in the sun. Philippe Daugeard will still be justifiably wary of the well-positioned FRODO S (5) who trotted 4th in better company over course and distance on his penultimate outing, and 2nd row starter HARISON DU PLESSIS (11) who will be dangerous if Eric Raffin can keep him in stride. HIGOR DAIRPET (10) was below-par here a fortnight ago but will be expected to redeem himself.

2 - 5 - 11
