Sanctioned in a 2600m Saint-Galmier Class F on 5 March. Boasts a remarkable amateur record though and winning this is well within his capacity

Has not been seen out since running 7th of 8 in a 2250m monte Class C here last July. Is barefoot for re-entry and if sufficiently fit, can make first 5

Unraced since being disqualified in a 2150m Cagnes Class C on 22 January. Complicated sort but has buckets of ability and, if race-fit and focused, can play a leading part

Raced better in a 2100m Vincennes amateurs Class G last week than her 5th of 15 would suggest. Is plainly in fine shape and from the 4-spot will have a lot to contribute

Back to a division he likes after running 10th of 16 in a 2700m Class F at La Capelle on 6 April. Enjoys a good draw but has little love for Enghien and represents no more than a minor place prospect

Looked very ordinary when last of 14 behind HARMONIE JO (4) in a 2100m Vincennes amateurs Class G last week. Breaks in front, and has been reconfigured, but still not a concern

2nd of 16 in a 2850m Laval amateurs Class G on 29 March. May just have found his mark in this category and must be treated with respect. Chance

5th of 15 in a 2700m Graignes amateurs Class G 2 weeks ago. Pitted against considerably better this time and is not about to paint the town red
Ecurie Darche

0/h3-h4h5
Drops to the amateur category after running 5th of 12 in a 2850m Vincennes Class E a fortnight ago. Handed a poor draw and is unlikely to cause an upset

5th of 11 in a 2800m Rambouillet amateurs Class G 2.5 weeks ago but is being aimed a bit too high this time
J F Vallette

8th of 14, on return to competition, in a 2950m Saint-Malo amateurs Class G on 6 April. Barefoot for the occasion but has little going for her here

Made it 2 in a row when storming up in a similar event here on 25 March. Not ideally-drawn but his talented driver can still be confident of a big run. Claim

Last of 14 in a 2800m monte Class H at La Guerche-de-Bretagne on Sunday and backs up with nothing to contribute

Race Overview
Simply superb in his last two starts, JARDIN DU ROI (12) flew up here late last month and despite a 2nd-row draw can pull off the hat-trick. ISOLEE DU BOUILLON (1) has been afforded ample time to recalibrate after her early-March sanction and is back in a category she appreciates. IMPERIAL DE FORGAN (7) made a fine amateur debut at Laval and a similar effort would see him go close. JEU MAJYC (3) may not have been seen out since January but he is nicely-placed on the front line and will not be far off the mark if he stays in stride.
Selection:
12 - 1 - 7
