R1 VINCENNES [L-H]

C1 – PRIX HENRIETTA – 2100m (a1m1/4) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 46,000

  1. KENDO JIEL – 13th of 15, on first start for 9 months, in a 2800m Rambouillet Class E late last month. Hind shoes off this time but still not a priority
  2. KAISER CHANCE – 3rd of 15 in a 2950m Toulouse Class E a fortnight ago. Has no harness references over the main track but in current condition is very easy to like for a place in the frame
  3. KANEM – Sanctioned, on return to competition, in a 2700m Class D here last Friday. Has decent main track references but still has more to find
  4. KAZACHOK – Swiftly sanctioned on comeback in a 2150m Enghien Class D early-March. Already a winner for Eric Raffin here and from the 4-spot will have his chances
  5. KOQUIN D’AMOUR – Showed moderate improvement when 6th of 16 in a 2700m Class D here 2 weeks ago. Is considerably better than that though and will be expected to go closer this time
  6. KASH DES RIOULTS – 4th of 13 in a 2700m Class D here 3 weeks ago. Takes to 2100m for the first time and racing barefoot for the occasion will do his chances no disservice
  7. KRISTO BOURBON – Sanctioned on re-entry in a 2450m Caen Class D on 20 March. Has evident ability but has suffered an interrupted career and is expected to need another run
  8. KABOTIN CHENEVIERE – Produced 2 good provincial performances before finishing last of 10 in a 2700m Class D here a week ago. Sports front pads this time but in this category will have too much to do
  9. KITKO DAIRPET – Quality element that was prepping for this when sanctioned in a 2450m Caen Class D on 20 March. Set his personal best time under these conditions last November and has every chance of confirming
    Summary: Winner for Matthieu Abrivard over course and distance before being sent for a spell, KITKO DAIRPET (9) now has a race under his belt, is reunited with the driver in question, goes barefoot for the occasion, and looks the one to beat. In a similar vein, Eric Raffin, who won with KAZACHOK (4) here in December, is back in the bike and represents the main threat. KAISER CHANCE (2) has been a model of consistency lately and sports a fresh configuration. KASH DES RIOULTS (6) has no references over these shorter trips but tends to go well for Franck Nivard and will be first-time barefoot.
    SELECTIONS
    KITKO DAIRPET (9) – KAZACHOK (4) – KAISER CHANCE (2) – KASH DES RIOULTS (6)
    C2 – PRIX ARIEL – 2850m (a2m) – Class B Race – Harness – EUR € 60,000
  10. CONRADS PALLE – 3rd of 12, on French debut, in a 2875m Enghien monte Class D 2.5 weeks ago. Has other priorities and can be passed over
  11. PANTOCRATOR – Twice showed his form before faulting early in a 2100m Class C here last Saturday. Is no priority but can still make his presence felt
  12. MONA LISA VENUS – Unraced since winning over 2100m in Vienna last August. Is not here unprepared though and has the class to defy the layoff and finish close
  13. KOOL AND THE GANG – No longer the horse he once was, most recently last of 12 behind KIPHYLE DESBOIS (13) in a 2700m Class B here in late-February, and can be disregarded
  14. KRACOVIA – Has not been seen out since being sanctioned in a 2700m Gr.2 here last June. Shoes fitted and not a concern
  15. NIAGARA RIVER – Last of 9, when preparing for this, over 2100m in Victoria Park last weekend. Tends to go well at Vincennes, and runs barefoot, but represents little more than a minor place chance
  16. EVERY TIME WINNER – Returns to Vincennes after imposing over a mile in Turin on 26 March. Is proven here but at this level will have his work cut out
  17. ERNESTO ROC – 7th of 16, a place behind KEYNOTE (14), in a 2850m Class B here on 22 March. Is as inclement as the wind though and even with Matthieu Abrivard at the helm still looks an outsider
  18. ERNEST JET – Yet to make his mark since coming to France, most recently 8th of 16 behind KEYNOTE (14) in a 2850m Class B here on 22 March, and others easier to back
  19. ENOCK – Trounced in 2 here recently, last time 11th of 16 behind KEYNOTE (14) in a 2850m Class B here on 22 March, and has no possible chance
  20. KEVIN PRINCE – Sanctioned when going well in a Class B under these conditions 3 weeks ago. Very hard to knock when focused and has already imposed over track and trip. Chance
  21. KENO PETTEVINIERE – Showed considerable improvement when 3rd of 14 in a 2700m Class B here on 28 February. Cannot be considered a leading contender this time but can still get in on the action
  22. KIPHYLE DESBOIS – Consistently gives her best, as she showed when just pipped in a 2700m Class B here on 28 February. Appreciates 2850m over the main track and can get her nose in front this time
  23. KEYNOTE – In the frame in 2 before running 6th of 16 in a 2850m Class B here on 22 March. Enjoys a good entry and is unlikely to be far off the mark
  24. KIVALA RENARDIER – In excellent form this year winning 2 from 3, most recently a 2850m Laval Class D a fortnight ago, and looks thoroughly capable of confirming
    Summary: Close to the limit of earnings, and winner of her last 2 starts with Eric Raffin in the bike, KIVALA RENARDIER (15) can expect the lion’s share of support. KEVIN PRINCE (11) is no slouch when focused though and showed his form in a similar event recently despite losing his action. Solid for the most part since the turn of the year, KIPHYLE DESBOIS (13) missed out by the smallest of margins here last time out and will be competitive for the win. Five times a winner in six career starts, MONA LISA VENUS (3) has not been seen out since last August but she is competitively-shod, with Mathieu Mottier reining, and is not to be underestimated.
    SELECTIONS
    KIVALA RENARDIER (15) – KEVIN PRINCE (11) – KIPHYLE DESBOIS (13) – MONA LISA VENUS (3)
    C3 – PRIX ICLEA – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class C Amateur Riders Race – Mounted – EUR € 61,000
  25. HUGO OCCAGNES – Made a good return to competition last week, running 3rd of 7 finishers in a 3125m Angers Class C. Unlikely to spring a surprise but should nevertheless hold his own
  26. FLASH DU BIWETZ – In fine form this term, most recently 3rd of 10 to ILTON ROYAL (7) in a 2875m Enghien Class C early last month. Unlikely to get his nose in front but can still figure prominently
  27. FICIMER – Returns to Vincennes on a hat-trick after winning 2 at Cagnes, most recently with consummate ease, in a 2925m Class C a month ago. Takes on some more accomplished horses here but still looks a serious proposition
  28. GIANT MESLOIS – Drops down the category-ladder after finishing 10th of 11 in a 2875m Enghien Class B on 18 March. Not short of ability, just reliability, and others easier to trust
  29. ILLENC DES BOSC – Imposed with ease on comeback in a 2250m Enghien Class C 2.5 weeks ago. Has won 2 of last 3 and once again looks the horse to beat
  30. GABELOU CARISAIE – Back under the saddle after finishing last but one behind FALCON D’ESPACE (10) in a harness Class C over course and distance a fortnight back, and is unlikely to generate much interest
  31. ILTON ROYAL – Superb at Enghien on 7 March before running 4th of 16 in a 2875m Argentan harness Class D 12 days later. Is close to his best and very much in the running
  32. GADGET DU GADE – Out of the picture in last 3, latterly sanctioned in a 2875m Enghien Class B on 18 March, and can expect to have few friends
  33. EOLIEN DE CHENU – Flattering 4th of 5 finishers in a 2650m Bordeaux Class C on 8 March. Not a priority but can still make his presence felt
  34. FALCON D’ESPACE – Gives monte code another go after running 5th of 16 in a harness Class C over course and distance 2 weeks ago. Is confirmed at this level and in the hands of Agathe Poulain is unlikely to disappoint
    Summary: One of the most consistent horses in this branch of the business, ILLENC DES BOSC (5) got straight back in the game across town late last month and with the talented Luka Ott aboard, can confirm. He will still be minded to pay attention to ILTON ROYAL (7) who is quite obviously at the top of his game, and FICIMER (3) who has been transformed since returning to the code. FALCON D’ESPACE (10) reassured under harness here a fortnight ago and will not be sent out at 119/1 this time.
    SELECTIONS
    ILLENC DES BOSC (5) – ILTON ROYAL (7) – FICIMER (3) – FALCON D’ESPACE (10)
    C4 – PRIX ALGENIB – 2850m (a2m) – Class E Race – Harness – EUR € 49,000
  35. JAVA DES BERTHES – Returned to winning ways on 17 March, determinedly winning a 2450m Caen Class F. Can prove a handful but tends to go well here and must be taken seriously
  36. JOKE BLUE – 5th of 13, a place behind JULIANA BREIL (3), in a 2200m Caen Class E a month back. Can prove a handful but can trot when focused and should not be written off
  37. JULIANA BREIL – Returns to a track she likes after finishing 7th of 14 in a 3125m Angers monte Class F last week. Is plainly in fine shape and looks a solid first-5 chance
  38. JAVOTTE MADRIK – Quality mare that ran 6th of 16 on re-entry in a 2875m Class E at Meslay-du-Maine on 18 March. Will have progressed for the race and David Thomain can be confident of a competitive run
  39. JESSIE LAKE – 5th of 16 in a 2825m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche 2.5 weeks ago. Starts in front but would be preferred over shorter here
  40. JESSY DES PISTES – 7th of 14, on first outing since January, in a 2550m Gournay-en-Bray Class F on 23 March. Sports a new formula but still looks outclassed
  41. JULIE DU CLOS – Won a 2800m Pontchateau Class F on 7 March, her first start for 5 months. Has never produced the goods here but in this configuration can start to put the record straight. Claim
  42. JASMINE D’OUILLY – Last but one, after being off for 5.5 months, in a 2875m Enghien Class E mid-March. Has done nothing of note for 18 months and is not about to change her ways
  43. JOLYSTAR GEDE – Sanctioned in 5 of last 6, most recently a 2700m Meral Class H last Sunday. On back row and, while not a priority, could spice things up if applied
  44. JAVA D’ANAMA – Made up for Caen sanction when good 3rd of 14 in a 2350m Angers Class E last week. Has placed just once in 3 under these conditions but in current shape is easy to recommend
  45. HELMA DE BUSSET – In cracking form since returning to competition, latterly 2nd of 13 in a 2600m Cavaillon Class F on 23 March. Forced to incur the penalty but has decent form with Eric Raffin and is not incapable of getting her nose in front
  46. IRIS FARCEUSE – Held on well to win a 2700m Class E at Le Croise-Laroche early last month. Sports similar shoeing but is still unlikely to repeat
    Summary: Nicely entered on the front line here after having won on her comeback early last month, JULIE DU CLOS (7) will be reined by Guillaume Martin this time and can repeat. She will still face resistance from back-line starters JAVA D’ANAMA (10), who has placed in 2 of her last 3, and HELMA DE BUSSET (11) who has returned to racing in earnest this year. Barefoot after winning at Caen last month, JAVA DES BERTHES (1) is seldom far from faulting but breaks in front and can expect significant support.
    SELECTIONS
    JULIE DU CLOS (7) – JAVA D’ANAMA (10) – HELMA DE BUSSET (11) – JAVA DES BERTHES (1)
    C5 – PRIX D’USSEL – 2175m (a1m1/4) – Class E Race – Harness – EUR € 41,000
  47. KRYSTA DE KERYANN – Failed to replicate re-entry success when 9th of 11 behind KUNZITE D’EM (9) in a 2150m Enghien Class E 2.5 weeks ago. In similar company this time but should not be entirely ruled out
  48. KYA D’ERABLE – 3rd of 10 behind KYRA D’ESSARTS (5) in a 2725m Graignes Class E on 16 March. Has hardly put a foot wrong recently and is unlikely to go home empty-handed
  49. KOMEDIE SOMOLLI – Returns to harness code after finishing last but one in a 2450m Caen monte Class E a month ago. Barefoot this time but still not a concern
  50. KOREA – Serious mare making first start since running 2nd of 13 in a 2700m Class E here mid-January. Is clearly in competition-mode though and can bring the fight to KELLISIA GIRL (12)
  51. KYRA D’ESSARTS – Clear 2nd of 10 on comeback in a 2725m Graignes Class E on 16 March. Placed in one of 2 over main track here and should be good enough to finish close again
  52. KALINKA MOYA – Pleasant 5th of 11 behind KUNZITE D’EM (9) in a 2150m Enghien Class E 2.5 weeks ago. Appears to be back on the right road and will be barefoot this time
  53. KELLY CHARLY ERA – 5th in both starts after having won over track and trip late-January, most recently 2650m Laval Class E on 6 March. Barefoot for just 2nd Vincennes appearance and will be no pushover
  54. KELLY GEDE – Pulled-up in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class E on 17 March. Appears to be out of sorts and others easier to trust
  55. KUNZITE D’EM – Left a good impression when 3rd of 11 in a 2150m Enghien Class E 2.5 weeks ago. Goes barefoot again but a repeat seems highly unlikely
  56. KRONA VIKING – 7th of 11, on return to competition, in a 2400m Amiens Class E on 5 March. Has limited Vincennes experience but with hind shoes off can play a small part
  57. KOPALINE DE CHENOU – Easy winner of a 2850m Feurs Class F on 23 March, her first start for 2 months. Takes on a tougher lot this time but with form maintained, will not be far from the action
  58. KELLISIA GIRL – Comfortable winner of a 2100m Class E here on 18 February. Hard to knock when barefoot and focused and Eric Raffin will be eyeing the double
    Summary: Just 100 Euros from elimination and winner of her last start at the venue, KELLISIA GIRL (12) has won her last 3 when reined by Eric Raffin, and extending that to 4 wins is well within her capacity. KOREA (4) however has taken particularly well to Vincennes conditions and although unseen for 3 months, she races barefoot for the occasion and poses the main danger. Somewhat less-performant in her last 2 since winning over course and distance, KELLY CHARLY ERA (7) returns to racing barefoot and should be competitive for a place in the frame. KYRA D’ESSARTS (5) will have come on for her encouraging return run and should take well to this shorter trip.
    SELECTIONS
    KELLISIA GIRL (12) – KOREA (4) – KELLY CHARLY ERA (7) – KYRA D’ESSARTS (5)
    C6 – PRIX BEAUMANOIR – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class A Race – Mounted – EUR € 71,000
  59. KING DRY – Makes just 2nd ridden appearance, most recently having won a 2750m Toulouse harness Class F 3 weeks ago. In considerably tougher company this time but he can at least make first 5
  60. LASKO DES BROUSSES – Unbeaten in 3 monte starts, latterly storming to success in a Gr.3 under these conditions on 18 February. His limits have yet to be defined and is going to take all the beating
  61. KATINKA AIMEF – Easy 2nd of 9 in a Class B over course and distance 10 days ago. Is confirmed at group-level but faces a stiff test in this company
  62. LUCKY SIBEY – Sanctioned in 2200m Gr.1 Prix des Centaures early last month. Is confirmed in decent company and looks capable of trotting her way onto the podium
  63. KERRY LOVE – Takes a notable dip in class after running last of 6 finishers in 2200m Gr.1 Prix des Centaures early last month. Not always easy to gauge but has buckets of class and Mathieu Mottier will be eager to get her back in the game. Chance
    Summary: It is not often that one horse scares away the opposition but LASKO DES BROUSSES (2) has done just that after winning 3 straight, all for Eric Raffin. Closest thing to opposition will come from KERRY LOVE (5) who returns to a more reasonable level after last month’s Prix des Centaures bid. Sanctioned on re-entry that day, LUCKY SIBEY (4) sports a new configuration for the occasion and looks best of the rest.
    SELECTIONS
    LASKO DES BROUSSES (2) – KERRY LOVE (5) – LUCKY SIBEY (4) – KATINKA AIMEF (3)
    C7 – PRIX CLARISSE – 2100m (a1m1/4) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 40,000
  64. LODEN D’HERFRAIE – 7th of 9 finishers in a 2700m Class D here 2 weeks ago. Starts on the rail and, even with hind shoes off for first time, will struggle to make his presence felt
  65. LUNDU DE LOU – Got off the mark in a 2050m Class E at Lyon-La Soie a month ago. Pleased in 1 of 2 here but others still easier to support
  66. LAY UP – Flew up at Caen before running 3rd of 11, a place behind LATINUS AVIS (12), in a 2875m Enghien Class E on 18 March. Has never produced the goods at Vincennes but in current form looks a player
  67. LUX DE LA MESLIERE – Makes first start since winning a 2175m Class E here on 21 January. Is nicely-engaged though, barefoot for the occasion, and clearly in competition mode. Claim
  68. LEXCELLENT DU METZ – Complicated type that dominated a 2100m Lisieux Class E a fortnight ago. Has yet to deliver over the main track but will be dangerous if Léo Abrivard keeps him trotting
  69. LEBARON D’OURVILLE – Won 2 in January before being sanctioned in next 2, latterly a 2700m Class D here a fortnight back. Reverts to racing barefoot, starts in front, and if applied will not be too far from the action
  70. LION DES ISLES – Showed improvement when 5th of 11 behind LATINUS AVIS (12) in a 2875m Enghien Class E on 18 March. Shoes off again and the engagement of JMB will do his chances no harm
  71. LEFORT FLIGNY – Imposed at Lisieux before running good 3rd of 13 in a 2450m Caen Class E on 26 March. Is new to the main track, sports a fresh configuration for the occasion, but cannot be considered a priority
  72. LOUISDOR DECHAMBOU – Got back in the winners’ circle at Toulouse early last month after securing a 2750m Class E but has little to no chance of repeating
  73. LOTHBROCK – Tricky but talented sort that was quickly sanctioned in a 2875m Enghien Class E on 18 March. Has bags of ability, is behind in earnings, and has a major role to play if applied
  74. LE TAJ MAHAL – Sanctioned in last 3, most recently when going well in a 2875m Enghien Class E on 18 March. Patently has ability but 3 straight sanctions do nothing to inspire confidence
  75. LATINUS AVIS – Imposed at Le Croise-Laroche on 8 March prior to coming 2nd of 11 in a 2875m Enghien Class E on 18 March. Is new to the venue but is clearly a progressive sort and will have his chances if he takes to the new profile
  76. LAPS GEDE – Pleasantly-surprising 4th of 16 in a 2850m Laval Class E late last month. Barefoot this time but has never delivered at Vincennes and is unlikely to start now
    Summary: A winner on his only start of the year so far, LUX DE LA MESLIERE (4) returns fresh to Vincennes and from the 4-spot has a realistic chance of getting straight down to business. Starting just to his outer, the complicated LEXCELLENT DU METZ (5) had his way in the provinces late last month and, with stride in check, could well double his money. LATINUS AVIS (12) is like a horse reborn since starting to race barefoot and is plainly close to winning another. LOTHBROCK (10) joins him on the 2nd row but has been reconfigured and will be no easy touch if Mathieu Mottier keeps him focused.
    SELECTIONS
    LUX DE LA MESLIERE (4) – LEXCELLENT DU METZ (5) – LATINUS AVIS (12) – LOTHBROCK (10)
    C8 – PRIX EUKRATE – 2850m (a2m) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 59,000
  77. ETHAN DRIVE – Disappointing in 2 since imposing on 2025 bow, latterly last of 14 behind GAGNEUR (6) in a 2850m Laval Class D late last month. Barefoot this time but chances still limited
  78. HERMES EXPRESS – Won a Class D under the saddle here before finishing last but one in a 2850m Laval Class D conditioner early last month. Goes barefoot this time and looks a player
  79. HAUTE COTE DE NUIT – Beaten only by a very good mare in a Class D under these conditions 3 weeks ago. Takes on the boys this time but is as tough as they come and thrives in the day’s configuration. Place prospect
  80. FINGER DES BORDES – Left a good impression at Enghien before being sanctioned in a Class D over course and distance 3 weeks ago. Goes barefoot again and should not be entirely ruled out
  81. HISA DU MARGAS – Returns to a previous formula after coming 5th of 15 in a 2450m Caen Class D on 6 March but a repeat seems most improbable
  82. GAGNEUR – 9th of 14 in a 2850m Laval Class D late last month. Has ample ability but would be preferred competitively-shod
  83. GALION – Ran 3rd in a Vincennes Class C before coming 6th of 15 in a 2925m Cagnes Class B on 27 February. Appreciates 2850m over the main track and will be competitive for a place in the mix
  84. HARRY LE BEAU – Takes his chances in Paris after running 3rd of 12 in a 2150m Cagnes Class D on 9 March. Seldom seen here and appears to have too much to do
  85. GILBERTO – Surprisingly lacklustre 9th of 14 in a 2825m Cordemais Class D in late-February. Receives a Mathieu Mottier drive this time and can play a small role
  86. GARUDA FLIGNY – 5th of 12 behind HARRY LE BEAU (8) in a 2150m Cagnes Class D on 9 March and will struggle to make his presence felt
  87. HARDI CROWN – Sanctioned early on re-entry in a 3000m Gr.3 at Salon-de-Provence on 26 March. Has won 2 of 3 with Benjamin Rochard and, with application, can extend that strike-rate
  88. GARANCIO BELLO – Makes first start since faulting in a 2850m monte Class C over short course on 21 February. Is confirmed in this configuration but others still easier to back
  89. GAMIN DES ISLES – Missed out by little in a Class D under these conditions 3 weeks ago. Excels with the day’s driver and has a legitimate claim on the silverware
  90. FLYING BRICKELL – 5th of 13 in a 2700m claimer here on 1 April and even racing barefoot has no possible chance
  91. HAPPY FACE – Honest sort that ran 2nd of 11 in a 2800m Pontchateau Class D early last month. Has acquitted himself well in both Vincennes starts but represents no more than a minor place prospect
  92. GRIZZLY BEAR – Last but one behind GAGNEUR (6) on comeback in a 2850m Laval Class D late last month. Will have come on for the run, has been entrusted to Paul Ploquin, and Mattia Monaco could not have asked for a better entry. First 5
    Summary: GAMIN DES ISLES (13) is very hard to knock when barefoot and even harder to fault with Jean-Michel Bazire in the bike. The pair was just beaten here last month and JMB will be out to put things right. HARDI CROWN (11) boasts decent credentials under these conditions and Benjamin Rochard will be keen to make amends for his charge’s recent sanction. Barring a late-January blip, HAUTE COTE DE NUIT (3) has been in cracking form and is shod as she was here in February. HERMES EXPRESS (2) has imposed multiple times with Eric Raffin and will be barefoot following a Laval freshener. GALION (7) held his own in good company at Cagnes in late-February and has the wherewithal to finish closer this time.

C1 – PRIX DE LA BARRIERE DE PARIS – 2325m (a1m1/2) – Class B Race – Harness – EUR € 30,000

  1. MIAMI DREAM – Has major disqualification issues and faulted last time out at Agen-Le Passage on 23 March. Hard to trust and others make more appeal
  2. MAURINA BELLA – Not disgraced when fourth in Class E at Agen-Le Passage over 2575m on 23 March. Has won this course and distance and is capable of an upset
  3. MY DREAM DES MONTS – Consistent so far and was not disgraced when fourth in Class C at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat over 2650m on 8 March. Tries further and is not out of it
  4. MERCEDES DU LOISIR – Disqualified last time out at Salon-de-Provence on 26 March. Has lost the way of late but did better last year and could play a minor role if wise
  5. MAJYC FLIGHT – Holding form and finished third in Class D at Salon-de-Provence over 2200m on 26 March. Can contest the finish again
  6. MARCOTTE D’ALBRET – Did not show her best when 7th in Class C at this course over 2750m on 4 April. In good form before that and has a place chance
  7. MONA LISA ELLIS – Yet to win a race and was 6th last time out in Class C at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat over 2650m on 8 March. Might play a minor role
  8. MODESTO – Has been good so far and was runner-up last time out in Class C at this track over 2950m on 19 February. Be right there at the finish
  9. MOOREA DE CHANLECY – Disqualified last time out at Vincennes on 28 March. Unreliable but could be the surprise package of the race if in the right mood
  10. MAMJACK SACHA – Yet to win but has been runner-up four times already, including last time out in Class C at Vincennes over 2700m on 1 April. Can go one better this time
    Summary: MAMJACK SACHA (10) has yet to win a race but has gone close on four occasions already. She sets the standard on known form and gets the vote to score. MODESTO (8) has good form and should fight out the finish once again. MAJYC FLIGHT (5) has not been reliable but is capable of contesting the finish. MY DREAM DES MONTS (3) is usually competitive and will not go down without a fight, so can make the frame.

    C2 – PRIX DE CASSELARDIT – 2150m (a1m1/4) – Class E Race – Harness – EUR € 21,000
  11. LIBREVILLE – Unreliable and was fourth in a Class E Mounted race at this track over 2950m on 14 March. Could be the surprise package of the race this shorter distance
  12. LUPIN DE BEAUFOUR – Very unreliable but was runner-up last time out in Class E at thi track over 2750m on 4 April. Could be a threat this shorter distance
  13. LAZIO BUROIS – Unbeaten in three starts sine going barefoot, with the latest being in Class F at this track over 2950m on 27 March. Drops in distance but can win again
  14. LAZIZA DE LIGNY – A winner of her first three starts but has been disqualified in her last three starts, with the latest being at Châtelaillon-La Rochelle on 9 November. Capable of an upset returning from a break
  15. LILAS DU MELEUC – Disappointing form of late and finished 7th in Class E at Marseille-Borély over 3000m on 21 March. Has won over this course and distance and could earn some money
  16. L’AMI DE LANCOUR – Disqualified last time out at this track on 19 February. Battling to regain best form and needs to find a few lengths to win
  17. LIKELY DU PADOUENG – Only fair of late and finished 5th last time out in Class D at this track over 2750m on 19 February. Better this shorter distance and has a winning chance
  18. LOOPING GRIFF – Disqualified last time out at this track on 19 February. In good form before that and can be in the mix of things if wise this time
  19. LILY DES CARREAUX – Did not show her best when 13th in Class D at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat over 2550m on 27 December. In good form before that but could need this run
  20. LEOPARD – Holding form and ran well when third in Class E at this track over 2750m on 4 April. Can contest the finish
  21. LOUVE D’ENFER – Showed improved of late and was victorious in Class E over this track and trip on 6 December. Returns from a break but can earn some money
  22. LISKI DE LA CRIERE – Has struggled all year and was 11th last time out in Class E at this course over 2750m on 4 April. Needs major improvement to win
  23. L’AS DUEM – Unreliable but did finish 6th in Class E at this course over 2750m on 4 April. Might play a minor role at very best
    Summary: LAZIO BUROIS (3) has won all three of his barefoot races. He drops in distance, but that should not be a problem and he can add to his win tally. LUPIN DE BEAUFOUR (2) is not reliable but could go one better this time after a solid last performance. LEOPARD (10) has held his form of late and can contest the finish. LOOPING GRIFF (8) fluffed his lines with a disqualification last time out but is also not out of it if wise.

  32. IDOLE DE LA ROUVRE – Has been struggling for some time now and was 8th last time out in Class G at Castillonnès over 2450m on 30 March. Needs major improvement to win
  33. IVAN D’URZY – Bounced back to form with a barefoot win in Class G at Marseille-Borély over 3000m on 21 March. Can be very competitive in this line-up
  34. JASPER DU BELLAY – Disqualified last time out at Auch on 9 March. Did better last year and is quite capable of an upset this distance
  35. IDOCTRO DE HOUELLE – Unreliable and he clearly needed his only run of the year when 13th in Class F at La Capelle over 2750m on 9 March. Back barefoot and could be a the surprise package of the race

  39. ICARE DE BANVILLE – Unreliable but was not disgraced when 5th in Class G at Agen-Le Passage over 2585m on 23 March. Can make the frame
    Summary: JUST BLACK (2) is not easy to trust but is in very good shape and gets a narrow vote to score in a competitive race. IVAN D’URZY (10) broke a long losing streak when an unshod winner last time out and could double up if in the same mood. JOHN STEED (13) has won his last two starts when barefoot and is unshod again, so is capable of winning once more. JUST DE LA MORTRIE (14) is unreliable but could make the frame.

  50. KALANDA D’ELVIE – Disqualified last time out at Cavaillon on 23 March. Does win very often and would not be a surprise winner in this line-up
    Summary: KONTESSA DREAM (9) was ultra-consistent in 2024 and showed she was just as good as ever when runner-up in her only start of this year. She does set the standard for the race and can go one better this time. KYRIELLE D’ALBRET (8) is not as reliable as the selection but has won two of her last three starts and will be a serious threat. KIARA DE LANDEMER (3) won nicely enough last time out, but this does look a tougher bunch. KALANDA D’ELVIE (11) knows how to win but is unreliable.

KISS BOY (13) has done well all year and looks likely to fight out the finish again. KAROUZO (14) is unreliable but is also capable of contesting the finish.

    Summary: KAGNOTTE D’AZIF (14) has taken a fancy to this discipline and has now won her last two under the saddle. Her latest win at Agen-Le Passage suggested more wins are in her tank. JUPITER PLANCHETTE (1) is a mixed bag of tricks but can certainly win a race of this nature. JET DU RAVARY (12) won nicely at this track and deserves respect for that. KIANNICK OF NOUIC (3) has disqualification issues but is also capable of winning.

    Summary: MATEO DI QUATTRO (5) was very good in Sweden last year and has been just as good in France. His last win was fantastic and he should double up and win again. MAGGIORE (SWE) (7) is in good form and can fight out the finish yet again. HARLEQUIN (4) is not one to rely on but is unshod and capable of being competitive again.

HELIOS D’ELA (10) may need to do a bit more to win this race but can be competitive.

  9. WIXON’S MEMORY – Three unplaced runs so far, the latter over 1200m at Chantilly in a maiden race on October 3rd in a maiden race. Unlikely to feature
  10. ANCOLIE – Placed on her last two runs, 4th on the latter over 1600m at this track in a handicap on March 25th. Place chance
    Summary: ANDANTINI (8) could be the answer in this claiming event. She was a decent third at Deauville in early January in a claimer on her French debut, having raced last year in the UK. BELL BOY (5) has been placed on the previous two starts and can make life difficult for the selection. REUX (1) has had a couple of unplaced efforts since a second at Fontainebleau in mid-March and should not be discounted. SYBARIS JEWEL (6) heads the rest.

    Summary: Some talented fillies line up in this competitive Class 2 race. BADIE (6) impressed on her only start on the PSF in early December and returns from a break fresh and ready to go. WE’LL DEFEND (7) was an easy 4L winner at Chantilly in early March and looks a smart prospect who should be in the thick of it.

RIYAK (4) was a good third at Saint-Cloud last month and, as a consistent performer, should be right in the mix. USER KINDLY (2) is capable of grabbing a top-three finish, while BRAVE SHIINA (3) also makes the shortlist and shouldn’t be overlooked.

  32. MR HOLLYWOOD – Ran well to be 4th in a Listed race at this track on March 20th over 2400m on his last start. Capable of playing a lead role
  33. ZEN SPIRIT – Two unplaced runs since a 4th over 1800m in a claimer at Chantilly on October 12th. Hard to ignore
  34. MENDRISIO – 5th last time out, he won before that at Fontainebleau in a Class 2 race on October 8th. In the mix
  35. GUARDIAN – Got off the mark over 2200m at Lyon Parilly on October 18th in a maiden race last time out. Looks vulnerable
  36. PLEASEMAN – Good 3rd in a Listed race on his last start at Lyon Parilly on November 8th over 2400m and a win before that in a Class 2 handicap at Chantilly in October. Consider
    Summary: MR HOLLYWOOD (2) was a pleasing fourth in a Listed race at this track on his last start in late March and should be too smart for his rivals. ROCK BLANC (1) is a capable performer in this grade of race and can get back to form after a couple of unplaced runs this year. MENDRISIO (4) won a Class 2 race at Fontainebleau on his penultimate start and is hard to overlook. ZEN SPIRIT (3) is another to consider.

    Summary: BORN TO WIN (4) showed improvement when picking up a recent handicap over this course and distance.

CRICRI D’AMOUR (6) is not reliable but does also seem better than the last run. MALTOCK D’ORGERES (3) is unreliable but could make the frame.

She remains with scope for improvement and is one of the leading lights. IRBIS (6) has produced two pleasing efforts recently and is on track for a big performance here. He should be in the firing line. BAIGNADE (3) has been dropping in the ratings and showed improvement last time out and can show up well here. TANIS (10) finished just behind IRBIS (6) in their latest encounter and there shouldn’t be a lot to choose between them once again but Irbis just holds the edge.

    Summary: STOLEN KISS (1) has been knocking on the door for that maiden win which seems to be right around the corner. He brings very useful form into this contest and appears to be the most likely to breakthrough. MAHJONG (3) has had a number of chances to shed his maiden tag but continues without a win although back in maiden company and up in trip, there could be lots to like about his chances.

    Summary: WICKBURY (6) found one too good last time out but comes into the race with a 7.5kgs pull at the weights for a length defeat and that should be more than enough to turn the form around with, SUNRISE DREAM (2) who either wins or goes missing according to his form figures so doesn’t appear to be too reliable but is capable if on song. PASSINGSHOT (3) is nicely weighted and should be right in the thick of things. ELUSIVE BELARDO (5) is holding useful form and should have a say in the outcome.

    Summary: KINGORI (5) has dropped in the ratings which has helped his form improve and on the back of two solid efforts, he looks to be well placed here. VOILA POURQUOI (6) finds himself 3.5kgs worse off at the weights with the top choice on their latest outing which make his task tougher to reverse the form but he should be included in the play. CAPABLE (10) showed very good improvement last time out and if confirming that then she could have a say in the outcome. QUEEN BAY (11) has been sparingly raced in recent times but is now third up for the year which could lead to her showing significant improvement.

    Summary: DIEGO BELLO (1) won in good style two starts back before an under par latest effort and this should be the right type of race for him to bounce back to best in. BLANCHE SACREE (2) wasn’t entirely disgraced in handicap company last time out and could shape up well in a smaller field this time out. OUREA (3) has produced a couple of useful performances in the maidens and should be on the premises. LILAROSE (7) has seldom been far off them and can earn.

He has been running well against a lot stronger than this and if fit and ready after the break, he could take some stopping. MUELHEIMER PERLE (6) has been holding useful form and should have a say in the finish. ROCQUEMONT (3) comes into this with a handy galloping weight and is certainly one that could pick up the pieces should the favorite not pitch up.

    Summary: THUNDERSPEED (1) has had to play second fiddle at his latest outings but could have his day in the sun with a bit of luck in running. SAINT AQUILIN (4) would have come on a ton with his last start and will strip a much fitter horse for this contest which should see him in the firing line over a favorable trip. NOVA KEN (6) hasn’t been far off them and should be in the shake up. PROPRE SOEUR (7) produced a fair effort on debut and is open to any amount of improvement which could see him earning.
