Delicate but versatile hard-knocker with references in both trotting disciplines, though seldom far from a fault - a question of wisdom with him after 3 consecutive disqualifications, the latest under the saddle at Cagnes on 21 December. Beware!

Race Overview
Yannick Henry is strongly represented by JANTARA DESBOIS (11), whose encouraging 2nd at Bordeaux last month augurs well for her chances here, and JAVA DE LIGNY (6), who should resurface in a race of this ilk with her shoes removed after necessary comeback/preparation outings. JADE GERBEHAYE (16) and the returning JALTO DU TREMONT (5), who never disappoints when unshod, complete the shortlist with JUMPER STAR (13) and JETLAG DE BEAUFOUR (15) best of the rest.
