Made up for 2 straight sanctions with a close 2nd in a 2450m Caen Class F a fortnight ago. Had the measure of LITTLE TWO (4) that day and, with application, can open his account

Delicate type that was sanctioned early in a 2825m Cordemais Class F early this month. Has never been tested in this category and is not about to take the world by storm

Produced a decent effort first time out, coming 3rd of 11 in a 2800m Auch Class F on 10 March. Dupont stable in good shape and with Anthony Barrier reining, is unlikely to be shy about making his presence felt

3rd, a place behind LITTLE BLACK MO (1), on re-entry in a 2450m Caen Class F 2 weeks ago. Is a colt with significant untapped potential and can exact revenge on LITTLE BLACK MO (1)

Acquitted himself well to finish 5th in the Caen race of reference. Has ground to make up but is nicely-positioned in front and is not incapable of playing a small part

Went close on debut before coming 6th of 8 in a 2450m Caen Class F on 4 March. Is no superstar but breaks in front and can get a look-in

Gave a reassuringly good account when 2nd of 8 in a 2800m Class G at Villedieu-les-Poeles on Sunday. Aimed a bit too high this time though and chances limited

Complicated character that was sanctioned on re-entry in a 2550m Reims Class E last week. One of the least performant horses here and can be written off

Unraced since faulting in a 2150m Enghien Class C last October. Has yet to get around unscathed and others will be easier to trust
Etienne Dubois

Qualified in 1’18”8 at Caen last November and has distance in his pedigree. Hails from a fine yard and, even from the 2nd line, looks a decent first-5 chance

Set off no fireworks in qualification at Meslay-du-Maine last August but has had time to come on. Debuts with a top driver at the helm and, even from the back row, can put on a good show

Flattering 4th of 5 finishers in a 2550m Reims Class E last Wednesday. Gelormini has maintained faith though and could well pick up a cheque

Race Overview
A few good elements here but this could end up being a two-horse race between the tricky LITTLE BLACK MO (1) who showed a hint of his potential at Caen last month, and LITTLE TWO (4) who finished a place behind him that day, and Julien Dubois' colt may well be able to turn the tables. L'ART DU SOLLIER (3) left a good impression first time out and should take well to Argentan conditions. LIKABLE DE LOU (11) makes his much-awaited debut, with Matthieu Abrivard reining, and it would be foolhardy to ignore him.
