Has not been seen out since being sanctioned in a 2700m Vincennes Class D mid-September. Is not here for reasons of conditioning and must be taken at face value. Claim

Hardy element making first appearance since coming 6th of 16 in a 2875m Enghien Class D last October. Twice a winner in 4 clockwise starts and is not to be overlooked

6th of 11 finishers in a 2875m Argentan Class E early-February, on first start for 5 months. Will have progressed for the race and is ideally-positioned to give this a good go

Makes first appearance since finishing last of 9 in a 2850m Vincennes claimer last May and is unlikely to ruffle any feathers

Imposed at Angers before running 2nd of 15 in a 2700m Vire Class F on 2 March. Is plainly close to winning another and will be no soft touch at the business end of affairs

Unraced since faulting in a 2850m Laval Class E on 8 November. Shoes fitted for comeback though and best to hold off

5th of 10 finishers in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class E on 25 February. Starts wide but has won 3 from 6 racing right-handed and is not about to disappoint

Ran 3rd at Mauquenchy on 5 February but only 7th of 10 finishers behind KIWI DE BAFFAIS (7) in a 2850m Class E at same venue 3 weeks later. Has no right-handed references and others easier to back

Useful sort that was never at his ease when sanctioned in a 3150m Saint-Brieuc Class E on 24 January. Has yet to make any impression at Caen but in current shape is easy to like. First 5

Progressive but tricky sort making first start since faulting in a 2625m Cherbourg Class F on 24 November. Shoes on for re-entry and will not be given a hard race

Unseen since losing his action in a 2150m Enghien Class E early-October. Has shown a considerable liking for Caen and even though shod can still get a look-in

Starts for the first time since being sanctioned in a 2575m Agen Class F mid-September. Shod for Caen debut and others preferred
