Made it 2 in a row when comfortably winning a 2825m Cordemais Class E 3 weeks ago. Faces a tougher test here but from the front row can still play a leading role

Victorious here before coming 2nd of 16 in a 2900m Challans Class G a fortnight ago. Starts in front, simply excels with Eric Raffin, and a place in the frame is well within her capacity

Flopped here late-January before coming a reassuring 2nd of 18 in a 2800m Vire Class F on 2 March. Barefoot from the front row this time but others still preferred

Reassuring 4th of 13 in a 2500m Reims Class F on 2 March. Benefits from a front-line start but may just be taking on too much

11th of 15 in a 2500m Class E at La Rochelle 3 weeks ago. Yoann Lebourgeois in the bike this time though and is well-placed to finish in the money

Won 2 of 3 before running 4th of 11 in a 2800m Pontchateau Class D a fortnight ago. Enjoys a good entry on the front line and, with Anthony Barrier reining, can give IDOLE DE MEAT (9) a run for her money

Fast-finishing 4th of 11 in a 2700m Cagnes Class E a fortnight ago. Takes on a tougher lot here but has previously won over course and distance and given the entry will have her supporters

Unexceptional 7th of 11 in a 2875m Enghien Class D 8 days ago. Has otherwise been in good condition and should not be overlooked

8th of 11 finishers in a 4150m Gr.1 here a month back. In less-exalted company this time and considering her liking for these conditions will be expected to impose

Returns to a track she appreciates after running 5th of 11 in a 2150m Enghien Class D on 7 March. Unlikely to cause an upset but nevertheless has the wherewithal to finish in the mix

5th of 15 behind FELICITA D'ECOUVES (13) in a 2450m Caen Class D on 6 March. Reverts to a previous formula but is on the back row here and will have nothing to offer

Won a Class C over track and trip before coming 7th of 15 in a monte Class B under similar conditions mid-January. Has had ample time to recover and Benjamin Rochard will be eager to capitalise. Chance

Race Overview
Back to a more realistic category after making little impact in the Gr.1 Prix de Paris, IDOLE DE MEAT (9) has been reconfigured for the occasion and will have a genuine chance of winning this. She is going to feel the heat though from the on-form IZZIE D'ERONVILLE (6) who won over course and distance in December and who will again benefit from a front-row break, and the wonderfully-engaged, fresh, and barefoot HAIDA SAUTONNE (15) who imposed here last time under harness. Barefoot for the first time in her career, ISLA JUELA (1) steps up in category after winning a brace in the provinces and must be considered a major player.
Selection:
9 - 6 - 15
