Makes first start since coming 5th of 14 in a 2100m Vincennes Class E on 21 February. Unplaced on only Pontchateau appearance but can clearly trot and should not be entirely written off

Showed improvement in last 2, most recently 5th of 11 in a 2700m Vincennes Class C on 21 March. Unlikely to get his nose in front but can still pick up some prizemoney

Oddly out of sorts at Vincennes before coming 2nd of 14 in a 2350m Angers Class E 2 weeks ago. Easy to like in current form and configuration, and looks a decent first-5 chance

Imposed smartly at Reims prior to running an unlucky 4th of 14 behind JOMA OV (3) in a 2350m Angers Class E 2 weeks ago, and can make a bigger splash if Benjamin Rochard keeps her out of trouble

Out of the picture in 2 since returning to competition, latterly 10th of 13 in a 2950m Saint-Malo Class F 10 days ago, and can expect to have few friends

Took no time getting back in the winners' circle following the break, easily securing a 2725m Graignes Class F a month ago. Winner of last 3 when barefoot and from the front line can bring the fight to JINGLE DU PONT (15)

Classy mare that ran 3rd of 15, a place behind HIGH FIRE DAIRPET (14), in a 2925m Cagnes Class B late-February. Stays shod for the occasion though and best to wait

Surprise 5th of 10 finishers in a 2900m Amiens Gr.3 early last month. Has had time to get back in shape and despite the handicap should still be competitive for a cheque

10th of 17 in a 2850m Laval Class D 2.5 weeks ago, on 2nd start back. Stays shod and can be passed over

Returns to a more reasonable level since finishing 10th of 15 behind JINGLE DU PONT (15) in a 2100m Vincennes Class C on 5 April, but still seems to have too much to do

Did not enjoy the best of trips when 7th of 15 in a 2100m Vincennes Class C on 5 April. Has nothing to prove at this level, enjoys a good engagement, and has every chance of bringing home the bacon

In the frame in last 4, latterly 3rd of 14 in a 2250m Enghien monte Class C 3 weeks ago. Has solid references under harness too and must be considered a player

Race Overview
Performant in Paris over the winter, JINGLE DU PONT (15) faces a less arduous task than he did earlier in the month and, shod to preference for his Pontchateau bow, looks good enough to impose. Proven at the venue, and an absolute dynamo in the day's configuration, HORACE D'ARTHENAY (8) is 25m better off and represents the main threat. After briefly losing her way, JESTA BUISSONAY (4) is plainly back in business and the front-row break will only work to her advantage. HAUTBRION COLMI (10) may be less-favourably entered but is very hard to knock when focused and after a fine return run looks a player. Back under harness, in fine fettle, IVANOF (16) is not about to disappoint.

15 - 8 - 4
