Was going well before suffering interference in a 2100m Vincennes Gr.3 on 26 January. Is plainly in fine shape and from the front row should not be ignored
Y Desmet
G

2m9-mDm3m2
Good dual-discipline sort returning to the code after running 2nd of 12 in a 2825m Cordemais monte Class D late last month. Has never delivered here but sports pads for the occasion and with application will be no pushover
A Pereira

8h2h5h9-h0
Capable mare making just second start back, having finished last of 12 on comeback in a 2825m Cordemais Class D 12 days ago and is unlikely to shake things up
Ecurie Jean Paul Marmion
F
7 yrs
2h3h2-h0h4
Close 4th of 15 in a 2925m Cagnes Class Bon 27 February. Boasts superb Laval credentials and is ideally-placed to contest the finish
Ecurie Herve Guerin
G
10 yrs
0hD-h9h4h8
Unexceptional 8th of 10 finishers in a 2850m Vincennes Class D on 9 February. Races shod this time and cannot be considered a priority
Ecurie Marcel Geleoc
C
5 yrs
5h9-h8h5h5
Held his own to finish 5th of 10 in a 2700m Vincennes Gr.2 on 9 February. Appears to be getting back to his best and and from the front row can give this a good go. First 5
Ecurie Hunter Valley
F
7 yrs
6h3-hDh0h6
Significantly better than her 6th of 13 in a 2850m Vincennes Class A 3 weeks ago would suggest. Tends to go well on a flat track and can make his her own
Ecurie Jean-michel Baudouin
C
6 yrs
5h9h6-h9h8
Would have finished closer than 8th of 10 finishers in a 2900m Amiens Gr.3 a week ago had he not suffered interference, but can play a more prominent role this time as long as he is kept out of trouble
Ecurie M Bezier
C
6 yrs
1h1h6h0-h8
8th of 9 finishers on re-entry in a 2700m Vincennes Class B 12 days ago. Will have come on for the run and is unlikely to be far from the action
Stall Panamera Racing
F
9 yrs
1m1-m1m5m6
Classy mare back under harness after finishing 6th of 9 in a 2175m Vincennes monte Gr.1 early last month. Shoes on this time though and will have other priorities
E Lambertz

Sanctioned in a 2700m Vincennes monte Class A 2.5 weeks ago and will have nothing to offer
Ecurie D' Ycy
C

Returns to harness code after coming 5th of 9 in a 2700m Vincennes monte Class A 2.5 weeks ago and, shod this time, is not about to cause an upset
Mme Marie-noelle Lusseau
G
9 yrs
1h3h2-h3h2
Versatile servant that ran 2nd of 12 in a 2625m Agen Class B on 22 January. Antoine Wiels could not have wished for a better entry and will have a claim on the prize
Ecurie Jean Paul Marmion
F

5h4h9m8m0h0
Quality mare that was pulled up in 4150m Gr.1 Prix de Paris on 23 February. Shoes on and others easier to back
Ecurie Charles Dreux
F

Dh0h2h5-h0
Did not enjoy the best of trips when last of 17 in a 2700m Vincennes Gr.1 on 25 January. Shoes on this time and others preferred
J Seche
G

Good 2nd of 14 in a 2100m Vincennes Gr.3 on 25 January. Shoes on for the occasion though and best to wait

Race Overview
ICONE MADRIK (7) may not enjoy the best of entries here but she left a very good impression in Paris last month, won her only race at the venue, and can wrap this up. The opposition will be led by front-row starter IDYLLE EXPRESS (4) who went close at Cagnes late-February, and the ultra-consistent GRECO BELLO (13) who is nicely-in on the second row. COQUAHOLY (9) has nothing to prove at this level and makes his Laval debut with a good hand to play. KAMEHAMEHA (6) reverts to a previous formula and Antoine Lherete will be keen to take advantage of the excellent entry.

7 - 4 - 13
