Sanctioned in a 2600m Class G here 3 weeks ago, when unsupported, and even with 4 pads fitted is unlikely to cause an upset
L Gauthier

Sanctioned when well-backed in a 2600m Class G here on 7 April. Has no references in this category and can be passed over

Back in business since returning to racing barefoot, most recently 2nd of 9 in a 2650m Carpentras Class H mid-month. In better company this time but breaks in front and should not be far off the mark

Capable but as capricious as they come. 10th of 11 in a 3000m Borely Class E 11 days ago and is unlikely to influence the result

In fine shape, most recently 3rd of 9 in a 2600m Class G here 3 weeks ago, but in this company is not about to spring a surprise

8th of 10 in a 2625m Paray-le-Monial Class F early-April but in this category will have too much to do

Won at Lyon-La Soie before coming a modest 6th of 9 in a 2600m Class G here earlier in the month. Barefoot this time but chances still appear limited

Surprising 6th of 15 in a 2000m Class F here on 2 April. Has a good engagement though and racing unshod-all-4, can wrap this up

Pleased at Feurs before coming a respectable, but never dangerous, 6th of 12 in a Class D over course and distance on 2 April. Races barefoot this time though and will generate some interest

Honest trotter that came 5th of 8, behind JUST PAT (15), in a 2050m Feurs Class E 3 weeks ago. Not a priority but will nevertheless acquit himself honourably
G Raffestin

4th of 12 in a 2600m Saint-Galmier Class E on 6 March. Has been given ample time to recuperate and even from the back row, can play an important part. Chance
A Tintillier

h2h9-h7h8h8h1
Fine winner of a 2300m Marseille-Borely Class E on 22 March. Shoes off again and even though 25m worse off here, still looks a serious proposition

Sprinted well to come 2nd of 8 in a 2050m Feurs Class E 3 weeks ago. On the back line but seldom lets the side down and is not about to start now

8th of 12 behind JAGUAR JENILOU (9) in a Class D over course and distance earlier this month. Drops back in category and can more than make amends

Race Overview
Benefitting from a good entry on the front line, JIFF DES CELLIERS (8) races barefoot for the first time and looks just a marginally better choice than recent Marseille-Borely winner JAKABINO (12) who has an extra 25m to cover. JENJOY MAYBE (11) consistently gives everything he has, appreciates Parilly conditions and will be competitive, as will JAGUAR'S EYES (16) who returns to the configuration he sported when 2nd at Agen.
Selection:
8 - 12 - 11
