R1 ENGHIEN [L-H]

C1 – PRIX DE MIMIZAN – 2875m (a2m) – Class C Race – Mounted – EUR € 68,000

  1. IT’S MY DREAM – Last of 9 behind JE REVE DU BOIS (3), on comeback, in a 2175m Vincennes Class C on 19 January. Excels over track and trip and has every chance of coming close
  2. HUIS CLOS (SWE) – Runner-up in his last 2, most recently a 2700m Class D across town on 16 February. Sanctioned on lone start here but in current condition is easy to like for the win
  3. JE REVE DU BOIS – Pleasant 6th of 12 in a 2850m harness Gr.3 across town on 9 February. Can prove a handful but has bags of ability and can make a big splash if he stays in stride
  4. FLASH DU BIWETZ – Has shown improvement since the turn of the year, latterly 4th in 21 February race of reference, but a repeat seems improbable
  5. HURRICANE WAY – Returns to racing shod after running 8th of 11 finishers behind ILTON ROYAL (6) in a 2850m Vincennes Class C a fortnight ago. Is useful when focused but would have better prospects a level down
  6. ILTON ROYAL – 2nd of 11 finishers in a 2850m Vincennes Class C over short course 2 weeks ago. Has won 2 of 3 under these conditions and looks a serious proposition
  7. GIANT MESLOIS – Unseen since being sanctioned in a 2700m Vincennes Class B 2 months ago. Previously a good sort but latest results do nothing to inspire confidence
  8. FASCINOSO DE LOU – Has ample talent but out of the picture in last 2, most recently last of 11 finishers behind ILTON ROYAL (6) in a 2850m Vincennes Class C a fortnight ago. Takes on a good lot this time but appreciates Enghien and can make first 5
  9. FLUO MESLOIS – Sanctioned when unsupported in 21 February race of reference and appears to have no possible chance
  10. HOPIUM – Should not be too hastily-judged for faulting in a 2850m Vincennes Class C a fortnight ago. Has solid Enghien credentials and, entrusted to Adrien Lamy for first time, should be competitive for a step on the podium
    Summary: Currently at the top of his game and clearly close to his race, HUIS CLOS (SWE) (2) has another good chance to open his 2025 account. He will still meet resistance from the on-form and Enghien-loving ILTON ROYAL (6), and a shod JE REVE DU BOIS (3) who is hard to knock when focused. HOPIUM (10) enjoys a terrific entry and has nothing to prove under these conditions.
    SELECTIONS
    HUIS CLOS (SWE) (2) – ILTON ROYAL (6) – JE REVE DU BOIS (3) – HOPIUM (10)
    C2 – PRIX DE SANARY-SUR-MER – 2150m (a1m1/4) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 59,000
  11. GOLDEN GRACE – Reliability not her strong suit but ran an encouraging 4th of 15 in a 2100m Vincennes Class D last week and will not be available at 85/1 this time
  12. IS MAGIC HAUFOR – 3rd of 12 in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 16 February. Has been excelling in this class over recent months and the draw will only enhance her already good prospects. Claim
  13. GUIGNOL DE CHARDET – 7th of 12 behind IS MAGIC HAUFOR (2) in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 16 February. Enjoys an excellent draw but would be preferred barefoot
  14. HOLD UP RANAIS – Not overtaxed on re-entry when 10th of 15 behind GOLDEN GRACE (1) in a 2100m Vincennes Class D last week. Is ideally-drawn this time and will be expected to turn the tables
  15. GALANT DE BRUYERE – Ran 4th at Vincennes before coming 3rd of 14 in a 2850m Laval Class last week. Has been handed the 5-spot and Guillaume Lenain will be eager to make hay
  16. FINGER DES BORDES – Defied his odds to run 7th of 15 behind GOLDEN GRACE (1) in a 2100m Vincennes Class D last week. Barefoot this time and while not a priority is still worth retaining
  17. INDUS VAL – 6th of 10 when prepping for this over 2300m at Mons 2 weeks ago. Reunited with Pierre-Yves Verva who has already won with him 4 times
  18. FERLAINE – Last but one finisher behind IS MAGIC HAUFOR (2) in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 16 February. Is out of her league this time and can be passed over
  19. IRINA DE BAILLY – 7th of 13 in a 2925m Cagnes Class D a month back. Has been off the boil for some time and will not be troubling the judge
  20. GOLDORACK – Sanctioned in last 3, most recently 2 February race of reference. Races barefoot this time but still not easy to recommend
  21. INSTRUCTOR – Hardy element making first start since running 7th of 14 in a 2700m Vincennes Class C on 24 December. Has never disappointed at Enghien and in this company will have his chances
    Summary: In excellent shape over recent months, IS MAGIC HAUFOR (2) has been acquitting herself well in good company and from the 2-spot can impose. Although unraced since Christmas Eve and forced to break from the 2nd line, INSTRUCTOR (11) takes a dip in category and can get straight back down to business. Starting wide but on the front row nonetheless, INDUS VAL (7) returns barefoot to a track he likes and with a good hand to play. Better-positioned behind the car, GALANT DE BRUYERE (5) is plainly on the way up and is confirmed at the venue.
    SELECTIONS
    IS MAGIC HAUFOR (2) – INSTRUCTOR (11) – INDUS VAL (7) – GALANT DE BRUYERE (5)
    C3 – PRIX DE SAINT-PIERRE LE MOUTIER – 2875m (a2m) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 40,000
  22. LYS PETTEVINIERE – Faulted in a 2700m Vincennes Class E 9 days ago. Will appreciate Enghien more but still has a lot to find
  23. LOMBARDO DE LOU – Sanctioned on re-entry in a 2700m Vincennes Class E last week. Won over shorter here last summer but still represents no more than a minor place prospect
  24. LAST DES BROUSSES – Sanctioned in last 2, latterly when competitive in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 23 February. Yoann Lebourgeois gets the nod this time and will be no pushover if he can keep his colt applied
  25. LEON – 2nd of 8 in a 2175m Vincennes Class E on 4 February. Will be better barefoot and will have a legitimate claim on the prize
  26. LE GENTLEMAN – 6th of 10 finishers in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 2.5 weeks ago. Should take well to new profile and, behind in earnings, must be considered a player
  27. LE GOLDEN PHYT’S – 4th of 14, a place behind LINCOLN HAWK (12), in a 2100m Vincennes Class D on 12 February. Unlikely to cause an upset but still looks a respectable first-5 candidate
  28. L’AMIRAL STREET – Last of 11 on comeback in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 1 February. Has merit but would still be preferred in a lower category
  29. LYNX DU CHATELET – 9th of 11 finishers in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 23 February. Entrusted to P-Y Verva for the occasion and has a realistic chance of extending his win-rate to 50 percent
  30. LONDON JONES – Placed twice before finishing last but one in a 2100m Class D here a month back. Shod as he was here in January and is not incapable of getting a look-in
  31. LAZAN DE PASSIEU – Has not been seen out since being sanctioned in a 2850m Vincennes Class C last October. Barefoot on first start back but still not a concern
  32. LARABELLO DE LOU – Promising last year but disappointing this winter, most recently 7th of 11 finishers in a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 23 February, and must get his house in order
  33. LINCOLN HAWK – Won nicely at Pontchateau in January prior to running 3rd of 14 in a 2100m Vincennes Class D on 12 February. Will appreciate returning to a longer trip and must be considered a player
    Summary: Given an easy return run across town recently, the promising LYNX DU CHATELET (8) races first-time barefoot for his Enghien bow and has a decent chance of trotting off with the silverware. Pierre-Yves Verva will still want to keep track of the similarly first-time-barefoot LEON (4) who has not stepped a foot out of line this term, and the well-entered LINCOLN HAWK (12) who has turned a corner recently. Back on a more even surface, LE GENTLEMAN (5) goes unshod-behind, will be reined by Benjamin Rochard this time, and a more competitive performance is anticipated.
    SELECTIONS
    LYNX DU CHATELET (8) – LEON (4) – LINCOLN HAWK (12) – LE GENTLEMAN (5)
    C4 – PRIX D’HERBLAY – 2875m (a2m) – Class E Race – Mounted – EUR € 35,000
  34. LIBERTY DELO – Untroubled 6th of 9 finishers on comeback mid-February in a 2875m Argentan harness Class E. Has demonstrated significant aptitude for the code and racing barefoot for the occasion must be considered a leading contender
  35. LARPENT CELESTE – Returns to the monte code, unshod-behind, after finishing last but one in a 3000m Nantes harness Class E a fortnight ago and is not about to influence the outcome
  36. LA SOL FA – Kicked the year off well but disappointing in last 2, latterly 6th of 8 finishers in a 2700m Graignes Class E 3 weeks ago, and even though reconfigured still has more to find
  37. LEADER TUILERIE – Ran 3rd under harness on re-entry at Cordemais mid-January before repeating a fortnight later in a 2700m Vincennes Class E. Paul Ploquin in the saddle here and is very easy to like for the win
  38. LATINA DE TILOU – Won at first time of asking but sanctioned in next 3, latterly a 2200m Vincennes Class D 2 months ago, and others easier to trust
  39. LOU DE LANGE – 6th of 11 in a 2700m Class D on 20 January. Has had ample time to recalibrate and it is only a question of time before she comes good again
  40. LA CHENEVIERE – Complicated filly that was taken out by another horse in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 2.5 weeks ago. François Lagadeuc takes over in the irons and will not be far from the action if he can keep her focused and out of trouble
  41. LOLITA DE MIELOUI – Sanctioned in 3 of last 4, most recently a 2700m Vincennes Class D on 20 January. Shoes back on but still not a concern
  42. LOTUS DES SABLES – Tenacious 3rd of 7 finishers in a 2200m Vincennes Class D 2 months ago. Comes here fresh, is in his category, and must not be underestimated
    Summary: Yet to finish out of the first three in 4 starts, LEADER TUILERIE (4) will be configured at he was at Cordemais and is in with a realistic shout of making his ridden debut a successful one. Although a tricky individual, LIBERTY DELO (1) is back racing left-handed and, barefoot for the first time, looks competitive for the win. LOTUS DES SABLES (9) has yet to lose his maiden status but encouraged across town last time out and the excellent entry will only work to his advantage. The talented LOU DE LANGE (6) returns to racing without hind shoes and drops marginally in category with a reasonable chance of making the frame.

    LEADER TUILERIE (4) – LIBERTY DELO (1) – LOTUS DES SABLES (9) – LOU DE LANGE (6)
    C5 – PRIX DE NOIRMOUTIER – 2875m (a2m) – Class E Race – Harness – EUR € 52,000
  43. IONIQUE – Surprising 3rd of 16 on re-entry in a 2700m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche 11 days ago although a repeat seems improbable
  44. DESTINY DI POGGIO – Makes first appearance since coming 2nd of 16 in a 2850m Vincennes Class B on 15 December. Sensational over shorter here a year ago and can keep her undefeated Enghien status intact
  45. MISTER INVICTUS – Tricky sort that would have picked up a cheque in a 2850m Vincennes Class D 2.5 weeks ago had he not faulted. Difficult to oppose when focused and must be taken very seriously
  46. HISTOIREMIKA – Below-par in last 3, most recently 8th of 14 behind IQUITO PLANCHETTE (8) in a 2725m Graignes Class E 3 weeks ago, and can expect to have few friends
  47. GOLD DE CHIMAY – Unexceptional 7th of 14 in a 2700m Vincennes Class E on comeback last week. Shoes on this time and not a concern
  48. HERAKLION DESBOIS – Showed his limits in last 2, latterly last but one behind GOLD DE CHIMAY (5) in a 2700m Vincennes Class E last week, and can be passed over
  49. DRAGOWSKI – Plucky 4th of 14 in a 2850m Vincennes Class E on 14 January. Not once out of first 5 at Enghien and is not about to disappoint
  50. IQUITO PLANCHETTE – Seen more often than not in the amateur division but came pleasant 5th of 14 in a 2725m Graignes Class E 3 weeks ago and looks good enough to finish in the mix
  51. JINGLE DELO – Back under harness after finishing 9th of 10 in a 2700m Vincennes monte Class A conditioner 2 weeks ago. Charles-Antoine Mary could not have asked for a better entry and Paul Ploquin will be quietly confident. Place chance
    Summary: DESTINY DI POGGIO (2) has done nothing but improve since moving to France, won her only Enghien start, and even though unraced since mid-December she is barefoot for the occasion and looks the one to beat. Nicolas Bazire will still be keeping a wary eye on MISTER INVICTUS (3) who will be difficult to oppose if he stays in stride, and DRAGOWSKI (7) who held his own in a competitive Vincennes Class E mid-January. JINGLE DELO (9) needs to reassure but is just 500 Euros from elimination and has previously won at the venue.

    DESTINY DI POGGIO (2) – MISTER INVICTUS (3) – DRAGOWSKI (7) – JINGLE DELO (9)
    C6 – PRIX CYRANO II – 2150m (a1m1/4) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 40,000
  52. MAWENZI – 5th of 7 finishers behind MAHATMA DANICA (7) in a 2100m Class D on 12 February. Forced to start oil the rail but has a lot more to give and should not be underestimated
  53. MEC D’ERCOURT – Showed improvement when 2nd of 11 in a 2725m Graignes Class E 3 weeks ago. Has more to find but still worth retaining all the same
  54. MUST ATOUT – Lost his action in a 2950m Toulouse Class C on 19 February. Ability is not in question though and François Lagadeuc will be keen to put things right
  55. MELOMANE DE LOU – Nicely-bred colt that made it 2 on the trot when comfortably winning a 2050m Agen-Le Passage Class E 3 weeks ago. Well-engaged in front and is thoroughly capable of confirming
  56. MADE IN PRIMO – Got back in the game when 2nd of 9 in a 2275m Nantes Class E 3 weeks ago. Well-positioned behind the car and can play an active role
  57. MISSILE DE TAGOR – Won 2 in January before faulting, when full of running, in a 2700m Vincennes Class C a fortnight ago. If applied though, can bring the fight to MELOMANE DE LOU (4)
  58. MAHATMA DANICA – Good 2nd of 10 in a 2100m Vincennes Class D on 12 February. Has talent in spades and even though starting wide still looks a serious player
  59. MELKIOR DE BAILLY – Starting to make good on his promise, most recently 4th of 11 in a 2700m Vincennes Class C a fortnight ago, but faces a much stiffer test this time
  60. MELIDIAN – Last of 9 in a 2700m Vincennes Class A on 9 February. Handed a rough draw and can be ruled out
  61. MILLESIME TIKELOLE – Missed out by the smallest of margins on debut in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class F on 5 February. Has had time to recuperate but will not be helped by the draw
    Summary: Undefeated in two starts to date, MELOMANE DE LOU (4) races left-handed for the first time but, given the nature of his Agen performance, has the class to secure the hat-trick. Nicolas Bazire would still want to be wary of MISSILE DE TAGOR (6) who would have pulled off his own 3-timer had he kept trotting last time out, and the progressive MAHATMA DANICA (7) who is close to losing his maiden status. MUST ATOUT (3) is complicated at the best of times but has ample ability and, if focused, will be dangerous from the 3-spot.

    C7 – PRIX DE TREMBLAY-EN-FRANCE – 2250m (a1m1/2) – Class D Race – Mounted – EUR € 40,000
  62. MARKO DE COQUERIE – Unexceptional in qualification, posting 1’20″3 at Caen last December, and is unlikely to spring any surprises
  63. MESSI D’OURVILLE – Racecourse debutant that qualified in 1’20″7 at Grosbois last November. Is an unknown entity but hails from a good yard and should not be overlooked
  64. MILLESIME GRIFF – Untried colt that qualified in 1’19″1 at Caen last July. Has had time to come into himself and looks a serious proposition first time out
  65. MENDELEIEV – Looked very ordinary when 7th of 11 behind MISTRAL D’AUVRECY (9) in a 2200m Vincennes Class D 3.5 weeks ago and will need to show marked improvement
  66. MALONG – Drops back in class after finishing a trounced 7th of 8 in a 2200m Vincennes Gr.3 3 weeks ago but still has no realistic chance
  67. MERCANTOUR – Switches code for first time after running 5th of 11 in a 2825m harness Class F at Le Croise-Laroche 11 days ago. Leading jockey aboard and must be taken seriously
  68. MANIGOD – 5th of 11, a place behind MISTRAL D’AUVRECY (9), in a 2200m Vincennes Class D 3.5 weeks ago. Has more to find but is not out of the running for a first-5 payout
  69. MACK DAIRPET – Made short work of his ridden debut, dominating a 2625m Cherbourg Class F early last month. Makes metropolitan debut in excellent shape and has the quality to repeat
  70. MISTRAL D’AUVRECY – 4th of 11 in a 2200m Vincennes Class D 3.5 weeks ago. Unlikely to get his nose in front but can still give this a good go
    Summary: After kicking off his career with a brace of harness sanctions, MACK DAIRPET (8) stormed up at Cherbourg on his ridden debut and, well-engaged here, can confirm. The well-bred MILLESIME GRIFF (3) has been held back since qualifying nicely at Laval last summer and if as good as believed, can get straight down to business. Under the saddle for the first time, MERCANTOUR (6) will benefit from an Adrien Lamy ride and is expected to figure prominently. MISTRAL D’AUVRECY (9) benefits from an entry at the limit of earnings and should take well to Enghien conditions.

    C8 – PRIX QUICK WILLIAMS – 2150m (a1m1/4) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 46,000
  71. KANKAN – 4th of 11 finishers, despite being denied a run, in a 2100m Vincennes Class D a fortnight ago. Is confirmed at Enghien and even from the rail, looks the horse to beat
  72. NOAH NEWPORT – Quality element making Enghien debut after scoring over 2600m in Victoria Park 3 weeks ago. Consistently gives his best and the draw will do his prospects no disservice
  73. KENDRICK – Imposed at Bordeaux late-January before running 2nd to a good horse in a 2850m Vincennes Class D on 16 February. Enjoys a top draw in front and will be expected to contest the finish
  74. KUSAERI – Reassuring 3rd of 11 finishers in a 3000m Nantes Class E 3 weeks ago. Unlikely to shake things up but from the 4-spot deserves to be taken seriously
  75. KEROSEN DU GERS – Has struggled to come into himself this term, latterly last of 9 in a 2100m Vincennes Class C on 4 February, and is unlikely to influence the result
  76. DOWNTOWN AS – Useful Italian import making Enghien bow after running 6th of 8 over a mile at San Siro mid-December. Has not been seen out since and even though barefoot still appears to have too much to do
  77. PLAYBOY DE REVE – Won 4 on the trot before finishing 7th of 15 in a 2700m Vincennes Class E 2.5 weeks ago. Went close on only Enghien start and from the front line can redeem himself
  78. EMPIRE AS – Tenacious winner of a 2700m Vincennes Class E 12 days ago. Steps marginally up in category and starts wide but returns with morale intact and a decent chance of doubling his money
  79. ELAND – Placed in 2 before running 8th of 14 in a 2850m Class B across town a month ago. Forced to endure a tough draw but with application can get a look-in
  80. KAZACHOK – Won 2 from 3 before finishing a one-paced 8th of 15 behind KANKAN (1) in a 2100m Vincennes Class D 2 weeks ago and appears to have his work cut out
  81. MODRIC RENKA – Terrific servant making Vincennes debut after running 3rd of 12 finishers in a 2700m Vincennes Class E 2.5 weeks ago. Has pulled a tough number though and others easier to back
  82. KHEOPS BOURBON – Sprang something of a surprise when 5th of 11 finishers behind KANKAN (1) in a 2100m Vincennes Class D a fortnight ago. Breaks from the rear and is unlikely to cause an upset
  83. DALI’DEL RONCO – No slouch at home in Italy but will need to improve on recent 6th of 12 finishers in a 2700m Vincennes Class E 2.5 weeks ago
  84. DEMIDOFF CLA – Missed out by little in a 2700m Vincennes Class E 2.5 weeks ago before being sanctioned in the 2nd edition. Not ideally-drawn but will appreciate the mobile start and must be respected
  85. ETRANGER JOYEUSE – Returns to the French capital after running 3rd of 4 over 2640m in Milan 12 days ago. Barefoot this time but the draw does him no favours
  86. KASSIDY KID – 9th of 15 behind KANKAN (1) in a 2100m Vincennes Class D 2 weeks ago. Has decent Enghien references but in current form is hard to recommend
    Summary: KANKAN (1) may not always be the easiest of horses to handle but he has been in fine shape since the turn of the year, reverts to a proven formula, and has a decent chance of imposing. Back at the top of his game, KENDRICK (3) is ideally-placed on the front row and looks the principal threat. It has taken some time since leaving Italy but EMPIRE AS (8) opened his French account at Vincennes recently and although in better company still looks competitively well-in. Usually a model of consistency, PLAYBOY DE REVE (7) missed the start across town last time out but still has the capacity to finish in the mix. DEMIDOFF CLA (14) was unlucky in a re-run race at Vincennes recently and, clearly in rude health, can set the record straight.

C1 – PRIX PMU “L’ESCALE”-STE-ANNE-SUR-BRIVET – 2800m (a2m) – Class E Race – Harness – EUR € 19,500

  1. MAMBO ITALIANO – A good winner on debut in class F at at this track over 2200m on 16 February. Tries further but can double up
  2. MODESTY – Yet to win a race and finished fifth last time out in class E at Graignes over 2725m on 13 February. Needs to do a bit more to win
  3. MAGIC DE BANVILLE – A good winner last time out in class F at Nantes over 2275m on 21 January. Looked solid that day and can follow up
  4. MYSTERY QUEEN – Finished 6th last time out in class D at Vincennes over 2100m on 11 February. Won her debut and can be a real threat this time
  5. MAESTRO DE CORDAY – Showed improvement and was a winner last time out in class F at Argentan over 2300m on 16 February. Can contest the finish
  6. MARILYN MONROE – Has disqualification issues and finished 8th in class D at Vincennes over 2100m on 11 February. Capable of better but others ar preferred
  7. MIRABELLE DE LARRE – Unreliable and finished 8th in class C at Vincennes over 2700m on 17 February. Capable of improvement but others are preferred
  8. MISS IS DU CANET – Showed some improvement and finished third last time out in class C at Vincennes over 2850m on 13 December. Could play a minor role
  9. MALABAR MAGO – Holding form and finished fourth last time out in class E at Nantes over 2275m on 26 January. Should fight out the finish again
  10. MOLINE DE PADD – Unplaced last time out in class D at Vincennes over 2100m on 11 February. Yet to win a race and others are preferred
  11. MUSCLE DREAM – Did not show his best when 7th last time out in class C at Enghien over 2150m on 28 September. Returns from a break and could need the run
    Summary: MAGIC DE BANVILLE (3) is improving and was a good winner at Nantes in January. The step up in distance should suit and he can double up. MALABAR MAGO (9) has been very consistent over the shorter distances and can be a real threat in this line-up. MAMBO ITALIANO (1) looked good when scoring on debut at this course. This longer distance may not be a problem. MYSTERY QUEEN (4) did not run badly at Vincennes and can also be considered a possible winner.

  12. LOVELY SURPRISE – Disqualified three times in just six starts, including last time out at Royan La Palmyre on 25 August. Returns from a break barefoot for the very first time and could surprise if wise
  13. LAUVERGNIER – Has run well in all three of her starts so far and was 4th in Class E at Nantes over 3000m on 22 February. Barefoot for the first time and should make a bold bid at scoring
  14. LOKI DU PONT – Has struggled of late and finished 9th in a claimer at Les Sables-d’Olonne over this distance on 17 August. Returns from a break and is likely to need this run
  15. LADY DE L’ECORCE – Yet to win a race but was not disgraced when 5th last time out in Class E at Nantes over 2275m on 14 February. Better over shorter but is also not out of it
  16. LE CONQUERANT – Showed what he is capable of with a Class E win at Nantes over 3000m on 14 February. Capable of following up in this line-up
  17. LILY ROSE D’URFIST – Disqualified last time out at Vincennes on 13 September. Has the ability but both her wins were at Pornichet-La Baule and she could need this run returning from a break
  18. LIBERTE CERISE – Did not show her best when 7th last time out in Class E at Nantes over 3000m on 22 February. A winner over this track and trip before that and is not out of it
  19. LUXOR D’AUVILLIER – Disqualified in his last two starts, with the latest being at Argentan on 16 February. Capable of earning some money if wise this time
  20. LOMAC GEDE – Very unreliable and was 8th in Class C at Vincennes over 2850m on 22 October. Capable of a surprise but could need this run returning from a break
  21. LET’S TWIST – Did not show his best when 8th in Class C at Castéra-Verduzan over 2800m on 19 August. Likely to need this run returning from a break
  22. LE DUC DE SEVRES – Continues to improve and was a good third in Class E at Nantes over 2275m on 14 February. Can get involved with the finish yet again
  23. LESTANCIA BELLA – Has only lost once in three starts and that was last time out when runner-up in Class E at Angers over 2350m on 29 January. Can go one better this time
    Summary: LESTANCIA BELLA (12) won both her starts last year and only found one better on the day in her come back run. She is awkwardly placed in the second row but would not be a surprise winner. LE CONQUERANT (5) was a good winner at Nantes last time out and can follow up. LE DUC DE SEVRES (11) seems better over a shorter distance but that is not guaranteed. LAUVERGNIER (2) is barefoot for the very first time and has a winning chance on that evidence.

  25. KAID MESLOIS – Yet to win a race and finished 8th last time out in class F at Paray-Le-Monial over 2625m on 16 February. Unreliable but might play a minor role

  31. KING DU RIL – A winner of his last four starts, with the latest being in class E at Nantes over 3000m on 17 January. Big chance of another win
  32. KA FACTOR – Did not show his best when unplaced last time out in class E at Vincennes over 2700m on 28 February. Barefoot and capable of earning some money
    Summary: KING DU RIL (8) has been impressive of late and has rattled off four Mounted race victories in a row. There is no real reason why he cannot extend that to five wins. KINGDOM DE CHENU (6) disappointed last time out in a harness race. He was better under the saddle in two good runs before that will be a lively danger. KIROLETA (7) has struggled with some disqualifications of late but can contest the finish if wise this time. KISS ME JIVE (3) needs to do more to beat those rivals but might make the frame.

IMPERIALE MIVENCE (4) showed improvement last time out and could be ready to end a losing run. HASTA LUEGO PHEDO (8) needed his only run of the year and could bounce back to score. GOGO DES MALBERAUX (13) is sure to strip fitter this time and can upset.

JOKO DE LOU (13) has disqualification issues and is unreliable but is also quite capable of getting involved with the finish when wise. JOUEUR DU LUPIN (8) was in good form before fluffing his lines with a disqualification and can be a threat. JURASSIC MOIRE (4) hinted at a form return and could surprise.

IBIZA BELLA (9) is not easy to trust but did hint at a possible form return last time and deserves some respect.

  7. GIDLEIGH – Three unplaced runs, 6th on the latter over 1900m in a maiden at Chantilly on February 7th when not beaten far. Well-bred and has more improvement
  8. FILLE D’ARGENTINE – 5th on her last two runs, the latter over 1900m at Chantilly in a handicap on November 12th on the PSF. Placed on the turf last year and has place claims
    Summary: ALTYNAI (2) got off the mark at Agen last month in a maiden on her third run. She has a nice profile and can keep on progressing. GIDLEIGH (7) has shown promise in her three runs and this daughter of Frankel was not beaten far in a competitive maiden on the PSF at Chantilly last month.

  14. BAILEYS HONEYMOON – She has several 4th-placed runs, the latest over 1400m at Chelmsford on February 13th. French debut and warrants respect

  16. THE WASP – Four unplaced runs so far, the latter over 2150m at Lyon La Soie in a maiden on January 22nd. Pass over
    Summary: FRANCISCANO (1) showed promise when sixth at Deauville in late November on debut last year. He should be ready for his return and is marginally preferred over the experienced BAILEYS HONEYMOON (6) who has been racing in the UK for her trainer who has now re-located to train in France. She has form on all types of surfaces. DYONISOS (3) has several placed runs to his credit and can have a say. ZELZAL DREAM (2) ran his best race last time and can be involved.

  25. EASY STAR – Three unplaced runs, the latter over 1700m at Pornichet in a maiden on January 28th. One to steer clear of
  26. CLEAN BOWLED – Three unplaced runs, 7th at Cagnes-Sur-Mer on his latest over 1300m on February 12th. Handicap debut and makes limited appeal
  27. DAKOTA SKY – Six unplaced runs so far, well beaten over 1600m in a handicap at Chantilly on December 26th on the latest. Hard to be enthusiastic about
    Summary: SHEARKAN (4) has been placed on her last couple of runs and although she is still seeking her first win she seems reasonably well-treated and capable of winning off this mark. EAGLE GATE (5) is already a winner and has shaped encouragingly recently. He can make his rivals work hard for success. DESERT ROSE (3) is honest and can give a good account of herself.

  36. BEJAR – Two unplaced runs this year, 2nd before that on December 23rd at Deauville over 1900m in a claimer on the PSF. She has won on turf before
    Summary: DAPANGO (1) returns from a break and is a capable performer in claiming races. He won and was second on his two runs in claimers last year. His main rival could be CREW DRAGON (4) who won three races in 2024, two of them in this grade, with his other in a Class 2 at Cholet in November.

  48. HONGUEMARE – Creditable 3rd over 2400m at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in a Class 4 race on February 16th on her last start. Others make more sense
    Summary: NOVA HOPE (8) was a decent second at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in late January on her last start and looks capable of scoring in a race of this nature. MARLOWE (1) can keep the selection honest. He ran well when second on his latest outing in mid-February and his rider’s claim will come in handy. CELTIC ARYAAN (5) has been placed on both starts this year and looks like the one to be with each-way. EN PLEIN AIR (4) makes up the shortlist.

  50. GARVEY – Fair 4th at Chantilly over 1900m on January 11th on his last start. He has placed form on different surfaces. Player
  51. STEADY SUCCESS – Creditable 4th on his sole run over 2000m at Strasbourg in a maiden on November 11th. He can improve and be on the premises
  52. WHEN I DREAM – Several unplaced runs, the most recent over 2500m in a Class 4 handicap on May 19th last year. Pass over
  53. MISS CHACHA – Three unplaced runs recently, the latter over 1600m at this track in a Class 4 handicap on March 1st. Makes no appeal
  54. DSCHINGIS JOY – Below par on her two runs since a decent 2nd at Dieppe over 2400m on June 14th in a maiden race. In the mix
  55. PERRINE – 5th on her last run over 2200m at Dieppe in a maiden on August 21st on her third start. Might be more suited to a handicap

  62. KOUROUNADO – Clear promise in both starts, the latter when fifth at Chantilly over 1900m on January 11th. Each way angle
  63. QUENTINA – 3rd on her only run over 1700m at Dusseldorf (DEU) in a conditions race on September 29th. Improvement can be expected
  64. MESSAGGIERU – Unraced by Dariyan, stable runners warrant respect and he should be watched in the betting for clues
  65. CLAIROLE – Three unplaced runs over hurdles so far, the latter on February 19th over 3550m at this track. Looks safely held
    Summary: WALKABOVE (11) has been placed on four of her five starts and looks the type that can keep on improving. She will get every assistance from her jockey Christophe Soumillon. DSCHINGIS JOY (6) has had a couple of tame efforts since a good second last June and can be a live danger. KOUROUNADO (14) has shown talent in both of her runs and can be on the premises. GARVEY (2) is also one to consider.

  77. RED SUGAR – Several placed runs of late, 4th on her latest over 2600m at Marseille Borely in a Class 4 handicap on February 17th. Ought to be in the shake-up
    Summary: MY DARLING (11) has had several good runs recently. She won over 3200m at Chantilly last October and has placed form at this track. She is preferred over MONTE CINTO (6) who was a nice third on the PSF late last month at Pornichet and is a previous course winner. L’INITIE (3) shaped well when third at Chantilly last time and is one for the each-way backers to look at. RED SUGAR (12) has each-way claims from the bottom of the weights.

    Summary: NEVA NEVADA (6) won by 1.5L at Cagnes-Sur-Mer on her latest start in mid-February and is a strong stayer. She can edge this over MORSAN (1) who is also a last-start winner at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in February. He is stepping up in distance, hence the preference for the former. ACT OF WISDOM (7) was a pleasing second at Deauville in late January and is worth considering. SUPER ALEX (3) is another that can have a say in proceedings.

  86. GENESALIA – Third in a class F at this track over 2925m on 28 February. Remains barefoot and showed some improvement in this arrangement
    Summary: IRON D’ERONVILLE (8) has a very good record with Virginie Boudier-Cormy and he can continue to shine brightly. He could prove hard to beat in this lucky last race. ISBA BESNOT (3) has been good over this course and distance of late and will not go down without a fight. INES D’ATOUT (5) ran well at this track not long ago and can contest the finish again. HARING OKINA (6) has won under this driver before and can make the frame.
