Disappointing on re-entry when sanctioned in a 2725m Lisieux Class F 11 days ago and is not about to set off any fireworks

3rd of 15 to LYRIC (5) in a Class F over track and trip earlier in the month but to play a role here will need to find considerably more

Won at Angers late-February before being pulled-up in a 2200m Vincennes harness Class E on 18 February. Paul Ploquin takes over for the occasion and will have a lot to contribute if she stays focused

Looked a very different horse when thrashing the opposition in a Class F over track and trip 3 weeks ago. Moves up the category-ladder but still looks a leading contender

Unexceptional 6th of 18 in a 2200m harness Class E here last week. Debuts in the code with Guillaume Martin aboard but can nevertheless be considered an outsider

Flattering 4th of 5 finishers in a Class F under these conditions 9 days ago. Races barefoot for first time and will have her supporters

Imposed at Graignes on return from her break before going on the dominate a 2825m Cordemais Class F on 28 February. Has had a month to recover and, in current form, is hard to ignore for the 3-timer

Sanctioned on re-entry in a 2875m Enghien Class E on 7 March. Is patently talented though and can play a leading role if she stays in stride

Handy element that consistently gives her best, latterly 2nd of 12 to LUXUEUSE DANICA (8) in a 2700m Graignes Class E a fortnight ago. Is confirmed under these conditions and unlikely to be far from the action

2nd of 11 in a 2650m Bordeaux Class E early last month, on first start in the code. Hind shoes off this time and if disciplined will be no pushover

Race Overview
A different horse since starting to race barefoot, LUXUEUSE DANICA (8) has been sensational in both outings this year and can pull off the hat-trick if she turns. That being said, LYRIC (5) flew up in a Class F over course and distance earlier in the month and Anthony Barrier will be justifiably confident of a big run. Configured as she was when victorious at Angers, LA GARBO (4) will be no easy touch. Entrusted to Mathieu Mottier, and racing clockwise, for the first time, LATINA DE TILOU (9) must be taken seriously.
