Showed marked improvement when 4th of 13 in a 2800m Cholet amateurs Class G on 2 March. Has placed just once in 5 Cordemais starts but from the front line is worth keeping an eye on

Drops back in category after running 7th of 17 in a 2800m Cholet Class F on 2 March. Imposed last time in the amateur category and although not the biggest Cordemais fan, can still get in on the action

Unraced since running 10th of 12 in a 2100m Vincennes claimer last November. Is new to the category and starts in front, but reliability not his strong suit and others easier to trust

Ran close 2nd at Laval in the amateur division before repeating in a 2625m Chatelaillon-La Rochelle Class F 3 weeks ago and from the front line can play a leading role

Sprang quite the surprise when 2nd of 14 in a 2700m Machecoul amateurs Class G mid-month, on first start since November. 25m better off this time but a repeat seems improbable

Looked very ordinary on return to competition, coming 11th of 14 behind GOLDEN DE PAME (9) in a 2700m Machecoul amateurs Class G mid-month. Shoes on again and will have few takers
P Besson
G

9h4h0-h0h6
Raced better in a 2875m Meslay amateurs Class G mid-month than his 6th of 16 would suggest. On back row but still looks capable of defying the penalty and going close
D M Olivier

6th of 11 in a 2625m Class F at La Rochelle on 2 March. Is shod to preference for return to amateur division, has form here, and looks a decent first-5 prospect

O Potier

Made short work of a 3000m Nantes amateurs Class G on re-entry on 18 February. Has nothing to prove in this category and looks the one to beat

No slouch on a good day but has not raced since being sanctioned in a 2675m Class E at Le Mont-Saint-Michel last September and will need the outing

Race Overview
Fine winner on last month's return to competition, HAMILTON DU LUPIN (14) starts once again from the second line and, even though racing shod, will still take all the beating. INGLORIOUS (8), who similarly boasts excellent amateur credentials, has been knocking at the door and is 25m better off. HAUGAIN (3) has not put a foot wrong lately, has shoes fitted this time, but is still very easy to like. INCISIF VAUCEEN (11) has yet to strike that amateur gong but he has form at a superior level and it is only a question of time.
