Won 2 on the trot before running 2nd of 14 in a 2875m Meslay amateurs Class G a fortnight ago. Enjoys a front row break and will be no pushover

Three times a winner at this level but has not raced since coming 10th of 16 behind INTENSE ACE (7) in a 2875m Meslay amateurs Class G last November and is going to need the run
J M Jarry

2h6h6h4-h2
Made a fine return to competition early this month when 2nd of 14 in a 2625m Cherbourg amateurs Class G. Is plainly close to his race but may have to settle for a minor place cheque this time around
Theo Chevillard
G

0h0-h2h4h4
4th in a Cagnes amateurs Class G before confirming in a 2650m Marseille-Vivaux Class F on 10 February. Just front shoes off this time but has little love for Laval
D Gaudin

Sanctioned in a 2850m Maure-de-Bretagne claimer 2 weeks ago. Is prone to a lack of discipline and others preferred
P Hergno

5h4h3h9-h3
Yet to win at this level but consistently gives his best, latterly 3rd of 10 in a 2850m Mauquenchy amateurs Class G late last month, and should again figure prominently at the business end of affairs
A Taieb

6h4h0-h9h0
Lost her way over recent months, latterly 10th of 14 in a 2800m Pontchateau Class F on 16 February, and will have nothing to contribute

Makes first start since faulting in a 2725m Grenade ridden Class F mid-December. Barefoot for comeback but still not a concern
Alexandre Chevrier

Sanctioned in a 2150m Mauquenchy amateurs Class G 12 days ago. Always gives his best, but forced to start on 2nd line, however racing barefoot will do her prospects no disservice

Sanctioned in last 2, most recently a 2825m Durtal Class E last Sunday, and will have few friends
S Deshaies
F

Ran 3rd at Amiens on 5 March but sanctioned, when full of running, 3 days later in a 2700m Class G at Le Croise-Laroche. With stride in check from start to finish, she will have every chance of winning this
A Desbois
G

0h6h4hDhDm0
Has not been seen out since finishing last of 13 in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F late-November. Takes first step in the amateur category and is not without his chances of getting a look-in
P Edouard Mary

11th of 13 finishers when preparing for this in a 2825m Chartres Class G last weekend. Won well here before the break and if fully-fit can repeat
R Bahier

10th of 15 in a 2450m Caen Class F 12 days ago. Has been off the boil over recent months and can be passed over
S Pillon
F

7h6-hDh8hD
Disappointingly-sanctioned in a 2725m Graignes Class F mid-February. Races barefoot this time and although yet to make her mark here, nevertheless looks good enough to finish in the mix
Ecurie L M David

Last of 14 behind INSTAR JOKE (1) in a 2875m Meslay amateurs Class G, on re-entry a fortnight ago. Nicely-engaged but shoes on and poses no danger
C Dubanchet
Race Overview
Winner under these conditions last December, HISTOIRE DE LIERRE (13) has 2 runs under her belt since starting back from her spell and even from the second row, can win this. She will still feel the heat from an in-form but complicated HELYSEE WILD (11) who takes a big dip in category, and a revitalised INSTAR JOKE (1) who benefits from a 25m head-start. Barefoot after pleasantly surprising at Mauquenchy, ISARD DE PLAY (6) looks a major player.
Selection:
13 - 11 - 1
