Takes first steps outside of Italy after running 2nd of 6 over a mile in Milan early last month. Has solid form at home and receives an Alexandre Abrivard drive, but can nonetheless expect to find the going a bit tougher this time

Returns to Vincennes after running 2nd of 6 over 2020m in Florence mid-February. Is unproven here but has the potential to mix it up

Serious filly making Vincennes debut after running 3rd of 11 in a 2925m Cagnes Class A on 7 March. Takes on a tougher lot this time and chances limited

Complicated character that lost her action in a Class A under these conditions a month back. Tends to go well for Yoann Lebourgeois and warrants respect

Runner-up in last 3, most recently after staying on well behind MY PRINCESS (6) in a Class A under these conditions early last month, and is due a maiden victory one of these days. Chance

Has progressed with every run, latterly convincing winner of a Class A under these conditions early last month, and considering her potential, can make it 3 on the trot

5th of 10 in a 2200m monte Gr.3 here mid-February. Has decent harness references and looks good enough to challenge for a spot in the picture

Has not been seen out since coming 6th of 8 finishers in a 2175m Gr.2 here on 5 January. Has evident ability but is likely to be race-rusty
Ecurie Duem

Unraced since finishing last of 9 over 2100m at San Siro mid-December. Takes first competitive steps for new stable and is not to be underestimated

Sanctioned more often than not, most recently a Gr.2 over track and trip late-January, but has talent to burn and can make this her own if Eric Raffin manages to keep her mind on the game

Race Overview
The Prix de Chatillon has attracted quite the group of fillies and there is little to separate the main protagonists. Mathieu Mottier who, along with his horses, has been firing on all cylinders for some time, sends out last month's course-and-distance winner, MY PRINCESS (6), who has every chance of securing the hat-trick. Still a maiden but highly-consistent, MIDWAY LADY (5) ran a good 2nd to her that day and can again apply the pressure. A Gr.2 winner under these conditions, but as mercurial as the wind, the nicely-engaged MONICA JISCE (10) has won twice for Eric Raffin and will be a tough nut to crack if applied. MUSCADE LEMAN (7) has yet to get off the mark but has good speed and Anthony Barrier can be quietly confident.
