Has not been seen out since running 6th of 16 in a 2800m Vire Class F last November. Shoes on for the occasion and chances limited

6th of 14 in a 2100m Vincennes Class E late-February. Seems a long way off January form though and needs to get her house in order
Alexandre Chevrier

6h5h2h3h2h7
Placed in three before finishing 7th of 11 in a 2850m Vincennes Class C last Friday. Boasts solid right-handed credentials and from the 3-spot can figure prominently
Ecurie Sebastien Houyvet

1h0m8hDh9h1
Won a 2500m Reims Class F a month ago. Placed on lone Angers start and is ideally-placed to give this a good go. Place chance
N Lolic

3h9h1h3h0hD
Quality element making first appearance since being sanctioned in a 2700m Vincennes Class C last August. Is shod for re-entry though and best to hold off
J B Andreani

1m0h5hDm1m9
Unraced since finishing last of 9 in a 2700m Vincennes monte Class D late-November. Reliability not her strong suit though and has never delivered racing clockwise
Ecurie Mip

4h3h3h5-h4
Tough mare making first start since running 5th of 12 in a 2750m Cabourg Class A last August. Shoes on for re-entry but in this category must be taken seriously
Ecurie Delto

2-h9h9h2hD
Ran 2nd at Agen before faulting early in a 2450m Caen Class D a month back, but can make amends if Anthony barrier gets her off on the right foot

8hD-h5h3h6
6th of 17, a place behind JUNGLE GREEN (12), in a 2800m Cholet Class F a month ago but will be no easy touch if she replicates her Nantes performance
J Dubreil
F

9h1h1h3-h7
Quality individual that ran 7th of 16 on re-entry in a 2800m Argentan Class E a fortnight ago. Still in conditioning-mode however and not a priority
D Lecroq
F

7h4m9h4h0h4
Unraced since running 4th of 16 in a 2700m Machecoul Class F last October and is not about to trouble the judge
Y Marechal
F
6 yrs
4h4h4-h5h6
6th of 8 finishers in a 2900m Amiens Class F 2.5 weeks ago. Has a brace of runs in her, is plainly in competition-mode, and will be expected to play a leading part
A Wend
F

1h9-h1h4h1
Won 2 of last 3, first over course and distance, then a 2850m Mauquenchy Class D on 17 March, and has a realistic chance of leaving Angers unbeaten
Ecurie D M Mottier
F

0h6-h0h4h0
Failed to confirm Cholet effort when 10th of 11 finishers in a 2875m Meslay-du-Maine Class E a fortnight ago. Handed a tough draw and is unlikely to spring any surprises

Race Overview
Three times a winner in her last 5 starts, including under these conditions, JUST PRINCESS (13) is forced to break on the back line but still looks the one to beat. She is nevertheless going to come under pressure from fellow back-row starter JUNGLE GREEN (12) who goes barefoot for the occasion, with Matthieu Abrivard justifiably anticipating a big performance. JOMA OV (3) is better-positioned on the front row and reverts to racing with front pads. Starting just upsides, JESTA BUISSONAY (4) reassured at Reims and has already won twice for Benjamin Rochard.
Selection:
13 - 12 - 3
