Qualified in 1.19.6 at Grosbois last October. Not too many shabby youngsters in the Laurent-Claude Abrivard yard and is one to keep an eye on

Qualified in 1.190 at Caen last May. Comes from a yard in good shape and it would be no surprise to see him strike at the first time of asking

Sanctioned first time out before coming 6th of 12 in a Class F over course and distance 2 weeks ago, and is not about to spring any surprises

4th of 12, on career debut, behind MACBETH (7) in a 2825m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche 3 weeks ago but will need to raise his game in order to make any impact here

Returns to the harness code after being sanctioned in a 2450m Caen monte Class F late last month and appears to be racing here on a prayer

Gave a fine account when 2nd of 12 in a 2550m Reims Class F on debut early last month. Takes on slightly better this time but Pierre-Yves Verva can be confident of another good run

Qualified in 1.16.1 last year then ran 2nd of 12 on debut in a 2825m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche 3 weeks ago. Should appreciate La Capelle conditions and getting off the mark is well within his capacity

Disappointing in both since her decent Laval debut, latterly sanctioned in a 2225m Mauquenchy Class E 3 weeks ago, and will have few takers

Most impressive 2nd of 15 in a 2875m Meslay-du-Maine Class F mid-March. Goes left-handed this time but looks a classy filly in the making and has a legitimate claim on the trophy

Runner-up at Le Croise-Laroche on debut prior to finishing 7th of 8 finishers in a 2225m Mauquenchy Class E 3 weeks ago, and will need to reaffirm

Runner-up on debut a month back before faulting in a 2450m Caen Class F 2.5 weeks ago. Not a priority but with application should not be too far from the action

Courageous 2nd of 10 on debut in a 2700m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche 2 weeks ago. Was talked-up that day for good reason and will have a part to play if he takes to the new conditions

Race Overview
Beaten only by a serious filly on her debut last month, confirming her excellent qualification, MONZA SEMILLY (9) should be able to wrap this up if she takes to the new profile. Faster qualifier MACBETH (7) similarly pleased first time out and may just be the main threat. That being said, MA JOLIE JIEL (6) looked thoroughly professional on debut at Reims and will have progressed for the race. MIMOSA DE LARRE (2) has been held back until now and the presence of Franck Ouvrie in the bike speaks volumes.
Selection:
9 - 7 - 6
