Twice a winner from three when unshod behind (12) EL CHOCLO DE LOU has not been seen out for some time but the Martens race him unshod for the occasion and given his liking for Vincennes can impose. He will however be pitted against the ever-consistent (5) EOLIEN DE CHENU who is reunited with Jean-Michel Bazire. After a brace of lung-openers (8) ELAN DU ROCHER goes barefoot for his first objective of the season and should not disappoint. (13) ELAN BAROQUE drops marginally in category and can get back in the game.
Delicate sort but unbeaten in two this year. Makes first appearance in the capital and can play an important role if he takes to the Vincennes profile

The talented (5) DESIR PRINCIER may be a delicate sort but he was going well when sanctioned here recently and racing first time barefoot can more than make amends. Similarly indisciplined that day when still with a lot in hand (8) DESTIN DE STAR can give him a run for his money if applied. Authoritative winner at Laval last month (13) DOLLAR DU PLAIN makes his first foray to the capital and looks a decent prospect. (2) DEKO DE TILOU finished second in the race of reference and in present form with four shoes off for the first time will have a lot to offer. (11) DONATELLO KILY is not without merit and with focus can get in on the action.
Not the most dependable but encouraged at Agen late last month and will have his supporters

Frequently in the thick of things and latterly a place behind (9) CRISTAL RIVER at Enghien. Barefoot this time though and looks competitive for a cheque

A dynamic campaigner when applied (10) CALOU RENARDIERE won like a champion here last weekend. He thrives with Eric Raffin in the sulky and on good behaviour can repeat. (12) DIMMIDISIA is confirmed at a superior level over course and distance and considering present form can give him something to think about. (7) DAVINA DU CAPRE will be reined by JMB on this occasion and looks competitive for a spot on the podium. (2) DESTIN CARISAIE has never disappointed on the Vincennes main track and is not one to be underestimated.
Rarely far from the action when he can maintain stride. Second to (5) FAWLEY BUISSONAY at Enghien and should have a good hand to play

Highly impressive winner on re-entry at Cagnes three weeks ago (8) FABULOUS JET has hind shoes off again and can double up although Christophe Martens will want to keep a watchful eye on (10) FORSICA DU ROCHER who still had a lot left in the tank when sanctioned at Enghien the day before. (11) FAHRENHEIT FLOWER latterly finished third to the good Fairplay d'Urzy on the main track and in similar form can confirm. (5) FAWLEY BUISSONAY steps up in category after getting off the mark across town and will not be far off the mark.

Very hard to fault in this discipline when applied (9) EVITA DU BOURG comes here fresh and should have this in the bag if she can reproduce her last ridden performance. Bonne can however expect to meet opposition from (7) EDENE L'AUVERGNIER who has finished close in two of her last three. Solid under these conditions (4) EDITION GEMA is close to her best and is similarly in with a decent shout. The delicate (5) EAST RIVER enjoys a fine relationship with Yoann Lebourgeois and on good behaviour could prove something of a spoiler.
Respectable filly with better credentials at a lower level. Unseen since mid January and even though unshod behind is still an outsider

Something of an open race this but a it is hard to ignore the talented (13) FERIA D'ANAMA who was very unlucky at Enghien late last month. She goes barefoot again and despite the second line start Nivard is just the man for the job. Back in business following two lacklustre season-openers (8) FABELLA GALAA breaks in front here and looks to be in with a decent shout. (11) FUTAIE D'ERPION has yet to let the side down when applied and the short course profile should suit her ideally. (6) FELINE DE CALVI is currently enjoying a productive streak and merits respect on Vincennes debut.
Imposed last season on ridden debut. Unplaced on recent return and unlikely to spring any surprises

(7) FILLE BOIS MORIN got straight down to business over course and distance on her first start of the year. She has had ample time to freshen up and going barefoot again can double her money. Sanctioned in her last three the talented (4) FARCEUSE DU PRE has been entrusted to a leading jockey on this occasion and with shoes off for the first time can make a big splash. Unbeaten in this branch of the game (6) FABIARELLE has yet to prove herself going left-handed but with Raffin on board should acquit herself competitively. Confirmed under these conditions (8) FOLIE DE CRACK makes her first ridden start of 2019 and if fully fit can play a role.
