Complicated character that defied his 46-1 to win a 2700m Class D here with authority a month back, and should again finish close, provided Laurent-Claude Abrivard keeps him trotting

Quickly lost his chance after faulting, coming 8th of 10 in a Class C over 2700m here late last month. Leading driver in the sulky this time and will be expected to set the record straight. Claim

She has won three times from 1m 3f to 1m 6f. Disqualified when 14-1 here over 1m 5f under NH rules won by Jazz D'ourville in March on her latest outing.

Less-effective over recent months but finished an encouraging 4th of 8 in a 2850m Vincennes Class C a fortnight back and, with form maintained, can confirm

Solid 2nd in a 2650m Aleneon Class D on 21 April. Highly-performant when barefoot, has won over 2100m on the inner course, and is in with a realistic shout

Decent 6th behind JAZZ DE PADD (5), when shod, in a 2650m Aleneon Class D on 21 April. Shod to preference this time and, from the front row, can play a prominent role

Sprang a 95-1 surprise when 2nd in a 2700m Class D here late-March. Benefits from a good entry, comes here fresh, and will once again enjoy the Paul Ploquin touch

Hard to fault lately, most recently close 2nd under similar conditions mid-April. Breaks rather wide but is still in with a shout of making the first 5

4th, a place behind JE ME SOUVIENS (13), in a 2750m Ecommoy Class D late-March. Reverts to a proven formula, but handed a tough draw and no more than a minor place prospect

Sanctioned in the Aleneon race of reference. Races barefoot this time but still seems outclassed

Disappointing since being stepped up in class, most recently 8th behind JINGLE LOVER (7) in a 2700m Class D here on 29 March, and can be passed over

Race Overview
In flying form since the end of February, JUPITER TURGOT (2) finished second over course and distance before flopping here last week. Handed an excellent draw though, he reverts to a proven configuration, and with Yoann Lebourgeois reining, is very hard not to like. He will nevertheless be pitted against JAZZ DE PADD (5) who has never disappointed when barefoot, and JOPH DE VANDEL (1) whose first attempt at 2100m has been much-anticipated. JUSTICIA GLAM (6) may not be everyone's cup of tea but she won under these conditions for Eric Raffin in late-February and has hind shoes off for comeback.

2 - 5 - 1
