Returns to competition following a long hiatus, last seen when pulled-up in a 3000m Nantes Class F in January 2024. Shod as he was here in 2021 but is going to need the race

7th of 13 in a 2750m harness Class E at La Capelle on 23 March. Has yet to show any aptitude for the discipline and can be passed over

Failed to confirm harness success when last but one in a 2625m Agen Class E on 23 March. Reconfigured for a return to the code and from the front row can give this a good go. First 5

Ran 2nd under the saddle before finishing 9th of 15 in a 2100m Vincennes amateurs harness Class G last week. Takes on a decent lot here but still has the wherewithal to pick up a cheque

4th of 11 in a 2450m Caen Class D 2.5 weeks ago. Consistently gives everything she has and returns to a venue she likes with a good hand to play. Chance
Ph Blouet

Ran 2nd at Caen before being sanctioned in a 2800m Rambouillet Class F on 30 March. Seldom lets the side down when focused and Oscar Placier will be keen to put things right
D Brohier

Starts for first time since running 5th of 9 in a 2850m Vincennes Class D on 20 February. Won his only start here and has a decent chance of maintaining his perfect Enghien record
M Maige

Back under the saddle for first start since running 9th of 13 in a 2625m Agen harness Class B mid-February. Is never far from faulting but has buckets of ability and returns to the code with a lot to contribute
M Hulmel

Has not been seen out since running a below-par 8th of 10 in a 2175m Class D across town on 11 January. Shoes on and no threat
A Ripoll Rigo

Got back in the game across town on 22 March when comfortably winning a 2700m Vincennes Class E. Is never easy to gauge but is the class act here and Thomas Roullier has every reason to be confident

Race Overview
Wonderfully-engaged at the threshold of winnings, and most impressive at Vincennes last month, JUPITER DE PLAY (10) will again take all the beating if he can replicate that performance. Leading the opposition, front-line starters, HANDSOME BOY (7) comes here fresh and reverts to a successful formula, while JERIKA DE KERYANN (5) is as consistent as they come and appreciates Enghien conditions. IBILI D'OCCAGNES (6) is clearly in form and will be expected to bounce back from his Rambouillet sanction.
