Tricky character that finished valiant 2nd of 10 in a 2850m harness Class E here 2 weeks ago. Won 1 and sanctioned twice in 3 monte starts, and others easier to back

Reassuring 2nd of 10 in a Class D over course and distance 2.5 weeks ago, but at this level will have her work cut out

Honest sort that ran 5th of 16 in a 2800m Rambouillet harness Class B last Sunday. Is proven at Vincennes but in this exalted company will have little to contribute

Has not been seen out since finishing 5th of 6 in a 2850m Gr.2 here late-April. Barefoot for comeback but others still preferred

Sanctioned in last 3, latterly a 2700m Class B here a week ago. Has bags of ability and, if behaved, can challenge for a step on the podium

9th of 16, behind JUSTESS VIKING (3), in a 2800m Rambouillet harness Class B last Sunday. Goes barefoot for monte return and is not incapable of making first 5

Seldom seen under the saddle but seldom disappoints either. Sanctioned when being prepared for this in 3000m Gr.1 Criterium des 5 Ans mid-September but, back under Eric Raffin, will be no soft touch

High-class trotter that ran 6th of 7 in a 2850m harness Gr.3 here, when being conditioned for this, 2.5 weeks ago. Damien Bonne on board this time and should have this in the bag
Ecurie Du Haras D'erable

Last of 15 when prepping for this in 3000m Gr.1 Criterium des 5 Ans mid-September. Has decent monte references here and, hind shoes off this time, can play a leading role

Race Overview
In the space of 2 months earlier in the year, JEROBOAM D'ERABLE (8) secured a pair of Gr.2's and the Gr.1 Prix de Normandie; he has 2 races under his belt since the spell and, shod to preference, can get straight down to business. Already a Gr.1 monte winner for Eric Raffin, JOUMBA DE GUEZ (7) returns to the discipline with just hind shoes off and, if applied, can give Clement Thomain's horse something to think about. JUNE (5) has struggled with stride woes lately but has solid Vincennes references and will be no easy touch if Mathieu Mottier keeps her trotting.
Selection:
8 - 7 - 5
