Unplaced in both French starts to date, most recently 9th of 14 behind ELOISE GAR (6) in a 2100m Class E here on 14 May. Should be fully-fit by now though and is not to be overlooked

Pleased here on 9 May but failed to confirm a week later when sanctioned in a 2100m Class E. Appears to have turned a corner and Gabriele Gelormini will be eager to show its was not just a flash in the pan

Did not enjoy the best of trips when sanctioned in a 2700m Class D here a fortnight ago. Form is not in question though and can wrap this up if kept focused

Unlucky not to keep his unbeaten main-track status intact earlier in the month, KILIMANDJARO PLAYA (10) goes barefoot again and should be able to win this if Anthony Barrier keeps him trotting. KASH QUICK (14) though took his win-rate to 50 percent late last month and will be no easy touch. EMPIRE AS (13) may not have been seen out since early-March but tasted victory last time here and is barefoot for his comeback. Reunited with Eric Raffin after posting 3 straight sanctions, hopes are high that the capricious but capable KLASSIC DREAM (16) can get back in the game.
Won 4 of 6 this year, most recently a 2500m Reims Class F 11 days ago. Has 6yo's to deal with this time but is still easy to like for a minor place cheque

While never far from losing her action, JEUNESSE ETERNELLE (11) was like a horse reborn last month and, ideally-engaged here, can confirm her Nantes success. JAG ROYAL (10) has not been seen out since March but he boasts fine course-and-distance credentials, and has already won 3 times for his driver. JIDEO STREET (6) is plainly in rude health and steps back up in trip with a lot to contribute. JUST A COUET (9) has nothing to prove under these conditions and reverts to a successful configuration.
3rd over longer here last month before coming 4th of 10 in a 2350m Angers Class E 10 days ago. Is plainly close to his race and Franck Blandin can be confident of another big run

Fine servant that ran 3rd of 8 to CARL HALBAK (5) in a 2650m Hyeres Class D earlier in the month. Has hardly put a foot wrong all year and the draw will do her prospects no disservice

CARL HALBAK (5) has not skipped a beat since leaving his native Scandinavia, is shod as he was when imposing under these conditions in April, and is easy to like for the win. Matthieu Abrivard will still be wary of the less favourably-positioned CALIMA DI POGGIO (13) who makes his first start for the Bazire yard, with Alexandre Abrivard in the bike. IQUITO PLANCHETTE (1) faces a less-exalted bunch this time and should again finish close. Runner-up in both appearances over course and distance, SANGRIA PELLINI (11) is forced to start on the back line but is barefoot for the occasion and must be taken at face value.
4th of 16, a place behind HESCORT LOVE (3), in a 2100m Class D here 2 weeks ago. Tony Beller gets the nod this time and will assure his charge a competitive drive

A winner of 2 for 2 earlier in the year, FULL CASH DE PADD (9) was sanctioned on re-entry but is reunited with Eric Baffin who imposed with him on their only association and could finally open his metropolitan account. That being said, GEDEON DAIRPET (8) stormed up in a Class D here 3 weeks ago and will be no soft touch. Patently on the way back up, and benefitting from a superb entry, FERGIE HIGHLAND (16) will have her chances. HOLD UP DES VENTES (13) has been enjoying a good run of form and similarly merits respect. HESCORT LOVE (3) put in a fast time on his recent return and must not be overlooked.
7th of 8 finishers to LOVEBIRD (9) in a 2175m Class C here 2.5 weeks ago, having lost ground at the start. Is better than that but nevertheless faces a stiff test

Back this term doing what he does best, LOBBING DE BLARY (12) takes a dip in category, has solid references under these conditions, and looks the one to beat. He will still be opposed by the spirited but talented LIQUIDATEUR (7) who opened his 2025 account at Vichy last month, and LOIC D'AVEL (4) who steps up in class on a hat-trick. LOUSTIC D'YVEL (5) has turned a corner lately and looks competitive for a place in the frame.

Back in a category in which she has already made her mark, LIBERTY DELO (7) can win this as long as Alexis Collette keeps her focused. They will still encounter resistance from the well-engaged LAURENCIA BELLA (11) who came close to imposing on her seasonal bow, and LEGENDE DES ECUS (10) who has taken to her new vocation like a bear to honey. LA LAGOSTERIA (9) is not everyone's cup of tea but she is barefoot and, at this level, could pleasantly surprise.
Reassuring 3rd of 11, a place behind LUCIOLE DU VERTAIN (15), in a 2175m Class C here a fortnight ago. Has yet to deliver over 2700m but it is only a question of time

Starts for first time since finishing last of 9 in a 2100m Class B here in January. Sports 4 pads for first time but still not a concern

Failed to live up to expectations when last of 11 behind LALUNA DES FORGES (5) on re-entry in a Class C over course and distance mid-May. Gets another crack at racing barefoot but others still easier to trust

Dependability may not be her strong suit but LILY DE L'AUNAY (8) was so impressive here last month that it is difficult to imagine her not being competitive this time too. She will still have to take on the tricky but talented, and reconfigured, LA MITIDJA (12) who will be reined by Eric Raffin for the first time, and the nicely-entered L'ETOILE (16) who reverts to a previous configuration. LALUNA DES FORGES (5) has never disappointed when barefoot and is not going to be far from the action.

Excellent winner on his only ridden start, HERMES EXPRESS (8) returns to the discipline following a short spell and Eric Raffin will be expecting to confirm. He will still be keeping a watchful eye on IGO CLEA (6) who has been knocking at the door recently, and a barefoot ISLAMORADA (2) who imposed last time under these conditions. Regularly in the thick of things, INITIALE CASTELETS (4) put in a fine finish at Nantes and must be taken seriously.
