Narrow Cherbourg-driven winner JOLI COEUR JERSOP (7) showed some promise in the saddle when fourth at Sables d'Olonne last August. Notable contender in a new shoeing combination. JACKPOT DE LINE (9) would hold strong claims on the form he showed when runner-up in a Class D mounted event at Enghien last summer. Interesting claims. JORIS DE L'ELLE (6) won a country track mounted event three starts ago and needs considering on this first outing barefoot. J'AI OSE (3) could feature.

KIEVEL (7) produced a sound fourth in a Class F at Pontchateau on his third outing. Claims now racing in first-time pads. Market support behind newcomer KORADO BELLO (11) would be of note while KOOPLES DE LARRE (4) shaped encouragingly when third at Cagnes-sur-Mer on debut a fortnight ago.

GRILLE PAIN (3) followed up a Class E Nantes win with a solid second in a walk-up at Vire last start. Selected to make a winning mobile debut with a record of two from four barefoot.
