    16. MOONWALK STEP - Unreliable but has won over this course and distance and has been supplemented for this race

He is the one to beat. (2) SARON ran well enough on debut to have a winning chance this time. (6) LADY MINX has been disappointing since a fair debut but must be considered. (11) LADYSANE can run well on debut.

    6. YOUNG CITY - Fit and well but has yet to win after 14 attempts and needs major improvement to win this race

    7. AIR DE VALSE - Did not show much on her debut. Likely to be smarter this time but others are preferred

(1) ISIDRO has fitness on his side and was not disgraced in two starts since winning on debut. (5) ELEGANT LIGHT also has a chance as she has held her form well and a win from her is not far away.

    Selections

    (2) FANTASTIC GLORY - (1) ISIDRO - (5) ELEGANT LIGHT - (4) MOANA

  • Race 4 1. BEYOND MY DREAMS - Battling to regain his best form but his rating continues to drop. Might place

    12. ONCLE FERNAND - Consistent of late and won nicely last time out but carries a penalty. Consider

    13. GILOULOU - Has been unreliable of late. Distance suited and could pop up in the places

    14. PINOT GRIGIO - His last win was over this distance but his recent runs have only been modest. Might place

    15. COPACETIC - Fit and well and has won over this course and distance. Deserves respect

    16. SAMAGACE DU VIVIEN - Mostly moderate form shown so far and does need major improvement to win

    Summary

  • One cannot fault (2) BLUE LINK who has won his last three starts. A couple of big penalties have not anchored him yet and he could well win again. (5) SHENOYA and (7) LINNGARIA are probably the two biggest threat and both must be respected. (9) PROST is also not out of it and is doing well of late.

    Summary (4) ELVIRA is in good heart and is looking to improve on her runner-up finish last time out.

(2) FEE MANO and (3) FARAFRA are also not out of it and do have a winning chance.

    Dark Horse : Goliath du Bocage (105)

    Race 1 1. GRACE DE CREPIN - Three-year-old filly by Very Nice Marceaux and Star Sister. Follow betting for further guidance

    2. GUZZY DE VIVE - Followed-up debut fifth with a game second at Bihorel-les-Rouen. Be in the mix-up

    3. GALAXY FOR MONEY - Followed-up debut second with an uninspiring seventh at Reims. Will need to improve many lengths on that effort to feature. Outsider

    4. GHAZI DE LA CANCE - Much improved when third at Evreux recently. Could fill the minor money placings

    5. GOLIATH DU BOCAGE - Far from disgraced in all three career starts to date. Fourth in latest. Be in the shake-up

    6. GANACHE TONIC - Game third at Argentan in most recent performance. Could sneak into the minor money placings

    7. GLORIA DU GERS - Pleased first time out when a close second to Gipsy Ajite on turf at Royan. Although disappointing in next three - leading chance

    8. GALMOVA - Has improved with each race run under harness, producing career best when third at The Touquet last time. Consider

    9. GINO DU DERBY - Far better than last two starts suggests. Runner-up prior and open to any amount further improvement. Respect

    10. GLAMOUR DU PERCHE - Seventh in three of last four starts so he is very hard to make a case for

    11. GRANADELLA - If sparks further improvement on recent second, she looks a lively contender for top honours

    12. GALON D'AMIRAL - Although sanctioned in first two carer starts, recent effort when runner-up strongly suggests he is a big player

    Summary

  • Interesting opener. Although, (12) GALON D'AMIRAL, was disqualified in first two career starts, he proved his worth when a game second in latest - big runner. (7) GLORIA DU GERS has disappointed in last three efforts, but was runner-up on debut and on that performance has a solid chance. Both (9) GINO DU DERBY and (11) GRANADELLA shouldn't be too far back passing the finish line

    GRANADELLA

  • Race 2 1. EDITO FLASH - One-time winner who has been sanctioned in four of last six starts. Other preferrd

    2. ELISA D'AMOUR - Unreliable, but may have just needed last two runs. Could fill the minor money placings

    3. ECOUTE EN TETE - Although not the most consistent, this one-time winner tends to run in the minor money placings more often than not

    4. EXCELSIOR SAUTONNE - Much improved when fourth last time out, but looks an unlikely winner. Place chance

    5. EVORINO D'ERIQUE - Remains win-less after twenty-six attempts. Eighth in latest - place chance

    6. ELEGANTE EMERAUDE - Disqualified in last two performances so she is very hard to make a case for. Look elsewhere

    7. ELYSEE MAT - Three wins and two places from six mounted races. On this evidence looks the one to beat

    8. ETNA DE VANDEL - Form suggests he is a much better horse under harness. Could fill minor money placings at best

    9. ETERNITY JIEL - All six performances this year fail to provide any sort of confidence so can be overlooked

    10. EL TRESOR - Will need to improve many lengths on recent form to trouble the market leaders. Others preferred

    11. ESQUIVE CLUB - Seems to have lost her way completely and is best watched until she shows improvement

    12. EASY ANGELE - Last two mounted efforte comprise a second and a fourth. Can earn a cheque

    13. ELOKAI - Sanctioned in three of last four and considering previous form is uninspiring, others are preferred

    14. ELISEE DU PONT - Will need to pick up socks on recent eight-place finish to win. Look elsewhere

    15. ERA BEJI - Three wins and two place from 22 starts under harness. Tries mounted racing for the first time - could be anything

    16. EMERAUDE D'AUVERS - Dual winner who has been threatening over last four starts. Be in the shake-up

  • (7) ELYSEE MAT has recorded three wins and two places from six mounted races. On this evidence looks the to beat. (12) EASY ANGELE last two mounted performances comprise a second and a fourth. Consider. (3) ECOUTE EN TETE tends to run in the minor money placings more often than not. (16) EMERAUDE D'AUVERS should be in the mix-up

    EMERAUDE D'AUVERS

  • Race 3 1. FELINARA - Dual winner who will need to improve many lengths on recent tent-place finish to trouble the market leaders. Others preferred

    2. FONCEUSE DU BISTON - One-time winner who on recent sixth-place finish looks to have a place chance at best

    3. FIORDALIZA - Clearly has the ability having won penultimate at The Croise-Laroche. Only concern is that she's been sanctioned in four of last five

    4. FLEUR DE QUIDRA - Ignore latest disqualification. Third in penultimate and considering only win was recorded at this track, she looks a player

    5. FINE DU COLOMBIER - One-time winner who has unfortunately been sanctioned in five of last seven performances. She isn't a confident selection - place chance

    6. FASHION - Will need to improve many lengths on recent seventh-place finish to win. Best watched for now

    10. FERIA CLUB - Far from disgraced when beaten into fourth in last three performance. Should not be underestimated. Player

    11. FLEURINE DU NOYER - Runner-up at this racetrack last time out. If brings A-Game could finish in the money

    12. FATALE D'ISQUES - Has really battled since winning in July 2018, and on recent form is unlikely to trouble the market leaders

    13. FARIDA - Remains win-less after 28 appearance and it doesn't help that she was sanctioned at this venue most recently. Others preferred

    14. FUSEE DES VAUX - Although remains a maiden, she tends to run in and out of the minor money placings. Be in the mix-up

    Summary (8) FIESTA DE LARRE was an eye-catching third at this venue most recently. Races unshod, be in the shake-up. (11) FLEURINE DU NOYER was a game runner-up at this track last time out and if spark further improvement could finish in the money. (10) FERIA CLUB has finished fourth in last three outings so looks

  • the joker in the pack

    5. FALCO THORIS - Although remains win-less after twelve starts, he's run in the minor money placings four times, including an eye-catching third recently. Chance

    6. FABULEUX - Fifth in latest but if he can reproduce anything close penultimate triumph, he could show this lot a clean pair of heels

    7. FANAK DU BOCAGE - Although not the most consistent, scored a much improved third recently. Place chance

    8. FALCO DU CAMPDOS - Triumphant at Arras recently. Previous form is sketchy but could sneak into the picture

    9. FABULEUX PIYA - Will need to improve many lengths on recent ninth place finish to trouble the selection. Best watched for now

    10. FIFI DE DUFFEL - Two wins and three disqualifications from five starts and that says it all. Shortlisted

    11. FEELING VICTORY - Recent form fails to provide any sort of confidence so can be overlooked

    12. FIER D'ARS - Runner-up in three of last four performances, including at Capelle last time. Consider

    13. FIRST DU ROUILLY - One-time winner who was a game runner-up at this venue most recently. Be in the shake-up

    14. FETZO REGLISSE - Fifth in last two appearances. Could fill the minor money placings at best

    9. DAISY DE LA FOLIE - Recent form fails to provide any sort of confidence so can be overlooked

    10. CASSIUS DU GIFFRE - Third in three consecutive outings prior to finishing an uncanny ninth in latest. Should not be underestimated

    11. DOLLAR BABY - Six triumphs and just as many places from 24 starts. Won latest, be in the shake-up

  • Race 6 1. ETOILE DAIRPET - Dual winner who is ultra-consistent for the most part. Third in penultimate outing, be in the shake-up

    2. EPSOM GIRL - Not the most reliable but left a good impression when fourth in latest. Can make her presence felt

    3. EH COQUINE - Surprise winner last time out. Previous form is uninspiring having been sanctioned in four of five starts so tread lightly

    4. ELVIRA SAUTONNE - Two-time winner from thirty starts. Flopped in last five outings and needs to show vast improvement

    5. EMERAUDE DE BOUGY - Disappointing in last two efforts. Remains barefoot and could contest the finish once again

    6. EMERAUDE VEBE - Has been running in and out of the minor money placings since winning at Argentan in 2017. Chance

    7. EUREKA DE NAPPES - Has really battled since winning at Graignes in 2016. On recent form, look elsewhere

    8. ESTIME UNIK - Dual winner who has been disqualified in two of last three starts. Ninth in penultimate - others preferred

    9. EVACASH - Fifth in two consecutive outings prior to finishing ninth in latest. Could sneak into the minor money placings

    11. ERBA D'AUNOU - Far better than last three performances suggests. Was on an impressive three-run winning streak prior - could upset the apple cart

    12. EBONY - Four victories and two places from fourteen appearances. Runner-up in latest. Player

    Summary (1) ETOILE DAIRPET is ultra-consistent for the most part. This two-time winner was third in penultimate - be in the shake-up. (3) EH COQUINE races unshod and was a shock winner recently. Previous form is uninspiring having been sanctioned in four of five starts prior so be very careful. (6) EMERAUDE VEBE shouldn't be too far back passing the finish line

    Selections

    (1) ETOILE DAIRPET - (3) EH COQUINE - (6) EMERAUDE VEBE - (2) EPSOM

  • GIRL

  • Race 7 1. ESPOIR DE BLAY - Ran a cracker when third in first attempt of 2019. Consistent prior so has a solid chance

    2. ESPOIR ARCTIC - Has won two of last three performances, including latest at gingham. Be in the shake-up

    3. ECHIQUIER - Useful sort but particularly sharp when unshod behind. Could sneak into the minor money placings

    4. EMBLEME CASTELETS - Although disqualified in three of last four, he posted a game second in penultimate effort. Chance

    5. ECU DE MIELOUI - Kicked off career with a close-up second and has since followed up with two thirds. Be in the mix-up

    6. ESPRIT JOB - Reliability not his strongest trait but does know how to win and should not be underestimated

    7. ECHO DU PERRE - Inconsistent one-time winner who tends to run in and out of the minor money placings of late

    8. EJOCE JISCE - Will need to make drastic improvement on recent seventh-place finish to trouble the market leaders. Best watched for now

    9. EMILIO MAZA - Recent tenth-place finish fails to provide any sort of confidence so he can be overlooked

    10. ELGINO - Races unshod and considering has been runner-up in last two outings, this dual winner looks a lively contender for top honours

    11. ELDORADO ZEN - Remains win-less after 21 appeaances. On recent results he is unlikely to outrun the selection. Look elsewhere

    12. ESPOIR DES CHAMPS - Has really struggled since winning at Argentan in 2017. Place chance at best

    Summary (5) ECU DE MIELOUI was beaten into second on debut and has since followed up with two thirds - be in the shake-up. (10) ELGINO races barefoot and has been runner-up in last two outings. Should give the selection a torrid time passing the finish line. Although, (4) EMBLEME CASTELETS, tends to get disqualified more often than not, he registered a very good effort in penultimate. Chance

  • (5) ECU DE MIELOUI - (10) ELGINO - (4) EMBLEME CASTELETS - (1) ESPOIR DE BLAY

  • Race 8 1. ATUS PICKEN - Four-time winner who on recent form appears to have a place chance at best

    2. ALABAMA BLUE - Doesn't have the most inspiring form and considering has been sanctioned in two of last three performances, others are preferred

    3. CABALERA - Doesn't lack ability and was impressive when triumphant at Nancy last month. Chance

    4. BELLAGIO MONOI - Although disqualified in two of last four starts, he registered a very good win most recently. Be in the mix-up

    5. CLASSE VOIRONS - Much improved in last two efforts when she was barefoot. She is barefoot again. Can go close

    6. AVENIR CLASSIQUE - Three victories and a second from last six performances. Ignore latest sixth. Big player

    7. CIMARRON - Considering was returning from a layoff, he did well to finish fifth recently. With fitness in his favour, should improve many lengths

    8. ARAGONAISE - Inconsistent of late but not incapable of playing a minor role if applied here

    9. CYRANO DU PONT - Eleven-time winner who has finished seventh in last two outings. Can take home a cheque

    10. VAROUGE D'EREVAN - Has not won for some time and is unreliable but could pop up in the minor money places

    11. ALINLOR - Far better than last four results suggest. Could play a minor role on best form

    12. CE RETOUR D'OSCAR - Three-time winner who produced a much improved third at Segre recently. Be in the mix-up

    Summary Tricky closer. (7) CIMARRON was in desperate need of a run last time but still ran a cracker to finish fifth. With fitness in his favour, should go a lot closer. (6) AVENIR CLASSIQUE has recorded three victories and a second from last six starts - be in shake-up. (9) CYRANO DU PONT has finished seventh in last two performances but has the ability and could take home a cheque

    2. ALOCASIA - Fifth of eight behind Bailey's Courage on her debut at Maisons-Laffitte in April. Respected

    3. HOLY GLORY - Fair effort on her debut at Chantilly at the end of April but a poor run at Maisons-Laffitte last month

    4. MISS TICHE - Runner up twice at Maisons-Laffitte and a fair fifth in a maiden there last month. Can have a say

    5. MYSTIC MONARCH - Promising third behind Kenlova on her debut in a newcomers race at Chantilly last month. Contender

    6. YOMOGI - Made smart improvement from first to second start and a fair third at Maisons-Laffitte last month. Consider

    10. RUE DE LA GAITE - By No Nay Never and is the second foal to run out of a dam that was a maiden after eight starts in Ireland

    Summary (6) YOMOGI improved from her debut to finish third in a Class 2 at Chantilly before a fair third to Alkaid in a maiden at Maisons-Laffitte last time out. She can get the better of (5) MYSTIC MONARCH who was a promising third behind Kenlova on her debut in a newcomers race at Chantilly last month. (4) MISS TICHE and (8) PANDA SEVEN are also respected.

  • Race 2 1. HOT SUMMER - Fifth on debut at Chantilly last September and again on her reappearance there in March. Work to do

    2. NOXARENO - Sixth of sixteen behind Sunlight on his debut in a newcomers race here last month. Respected

    3. PHAROA - Fourth of sixteen behind Sunlight on his debut in a newcomers race here last month. Can have a say

    4. CULTURE - Fair third in his only French start, in a maiden at Amiens last November. Stiff test today

    5. SAINT ANDREWS - Unplaced on his debut at Dusseldorf in April. Will need to improve from that

    6. KIEV - Placed in four of his five career runs including second at Fontainebleau in April. Place claims again today

    7. SPOKESMAN - One fourth place finish in Britain. Not so much promise in four starts in France

    8. NAVALMORAL - Three creditable efforts in maiden races before disappointing in a claimer at Saint-Cloud in March

    9. SEDRINA - Third behind Combermere in a maiden at Saint-Malo last time out. More required

    10. MRS VALENTINE - Unplaced on her debut in a claimer at Deauville last December. Others preferred here

    11. CINQUAIN - Has made little impression in three career starts and is unlikely to trouble the judge

    12. SMART LADY - Fair fourth of eight behind Wasmya on her reappearance in a maiden at Maisons-Laffitte last month

    13. WILPENA - Unplaced in both of her starts at ParisLongchamp in April and last month. Hard to recommend

    14. TUREA - Sixth behind Moonoon in a maiden race at Saint last month and can be in the mix today

    15. NOBLE SKY - By Never On Sunday and is the third foal to run out of a dam that has produced one winner

    16. PENSEE SPIRITUELLE - By Invincible Spirit and is a half sister to Meandre who was a four time Group One winner

    Summary

  • A big field of runners go to post here and the chances are that (6) KIEV may prove a value bet as the selection has shown a good deal of promise in career to date and today might be the day. (16) PENSEE SPIRITUELLE and (14) TUREA have decent claims as do both (2) NOXARENO and (3) PHAROA also.

  • Race 3 1. JARDIN FLEURI - Has struggled this year. Did better last year but is probably best watched for now

    2. FORMI - Showed a rebound of form in his last two at Chantilly and ParisLongchamp and can be in the mix

    3. HEXIS - Runner up at Saint-Cloud and fourth at ParisLongchamp in handicaps last month. Not ruled out

    4. TROIS ROSES - Raised 2.5 Kg for her win in a Class 4 handicap at Saint-Malo last time out. Respected

    5. VINGTCOEURS - Has done nothing of note for months and although down in the weight, looks hard to fancy

    6. CAPTAIN KISSINGER - Struggled in handicaps at ParisLongchamp and Chantilly in his last two. More needed today

    7. CARBUTT'S RIDGE - A triple winner from fifty two runs. Fair seventh in a handicap at Saint-Cloud last time out

    8. TROPEZIENNE - Went into the break on a low note and has resumed in similar order. Others preferred

    9. HARK - Moderate in handicaps and claimers this year and hard to make a case for her here on that form

    10. AYGUEMORTE - One time winner from sixty four but knocking hard and could be on the premises here

    11. NEVER SAY NEVER - Has finished in the first three just once since triumphant in late 2016. Place chance at best

    12. MA VALENTINE - A dual winner from twenty nine runs and is in good order enough coming in here

    13. SNOWY SUNDAY - Remains a maiden after twenty seven runs. Runner up at ParisLongchamp last time out

    14. JAZZ WARRIOR - One win from twenty six which was gained three starts back and a third last time out

    15. PAPA WINNER - Just the one success from forty two and well enough beaten last time out at ParisLongchamp

    16. THOMAS CROWN - A three time winner from fifty nine runs and the frame is probably best hope hetre

    Summary

  • The second big field of the day. It looks incredibly open but perhaps a few small euros on (4) TROIS ROSES might yield a dividend. The selection won nicely at Saint-Malo last time so is very much in form. (10) AYGUEMORTE and (13) SNOWY SUNDAY will have plenty of support in the market and are feared along with (14) JAZZ WARRIOR and (12) MA VALENTINE.

  • Race 4 1. ASTERIOS - Improved from debut to finish second to Kiloecho in a maiden at Maisons-Laffitte last month. Consider

    2. SAN MORCHESIL - Just the one place from six starts in this division. Could run in to a place today

    3. SOSOFT - A little disappointing in both starts which have come at Saint-Cloud. Can get closer here

    4. ALVILDA - Disappointing last of eight on her debut at Maisons-Laffitte last month but is respected today

    5. HANDMAIDEN - Placed in four of her five career starts in the UK and cannot be ruled out here today

    6. TESTA - Placed in both of her starts at Chantilly in April and Maisons-Laffitte last month. Contender

    7. SWEET SMOOTHIE - Will need to improve from her debut when a well beaten eleventh at Wissambourg last month

    8. MADE TO ORDER - A close second behind Defne in a maiden at Fontainebleau last time out. Can be in the mix

    9. JOJO - Third in her reappearance on the All Weather at Wolverhampton last month. Place prospects

    10. MISS ME - By Footstepsinthesand and is the first foal to run out of a dam that ran just twice in Germany

    11. C'EST UN REVE - By Sommerabend and is the third foal to run out of a dam that has yet to produce a winner

    Summary (1) ASTERIOS improved considerably from his debut to finish second to Kiloecho in a maiden at Maisons-Laffitte last month. He can come on again from that and gets the vote ahead of (5) HANDMAIDEN who has been placed in four of her five starts in the UK and cannot be ruled out. (3) SOSOFT and (6) TESTA are two more to consider.

    5. MORNING BASMA - Promising filly with solid form but was slightly disappointing at Cholet last time out

    6. ALKAWTHAR - Confirmed the promise of her debut when runner up in her last two at Maisons-Laffitte. Good chance

    7. SAMSKARA - Has not run since last September when fifth of seven in a maiden race at Chantilly

    8. MYA GEORGE - Needs to improve from her debut when a well beaten last of eleven at Saint-Cloud in April

    9. DUBAI OPERA - Disappointing last of eleven behind Dream With You in a maiden here last month

    10. ANTONIA CLARA - Unplaced on her French debut in a claimer at Maisons-Laffitte last month. Needs to improve

    11. VELVET VIXEN - Well beaten in four claimers since coming to France. Others preferred here today

    Summary (6) ALKAWTHAR confirmed the promise of her debut at Chantilly when runner up in her last two at Maisons-Laffitte. She finished just in front of (1) MUBARMAJ when second to Dream Life last time out and can confirm those placings today. (5) MORNING BASMA was not at her best last time out but must be respected.

  • Race 6 1. EQUINOZIO - A distant second at Chantilly first time out and unplaced at Maisons-Laffitte since. Dropped in class

    3. LALE - By Camacho and will be the first foal to run out of a dam that was a maiden after three starts

    4. DIVA DU DANCING - Beaten a long way when sixth to Kenway in a maiden at Maisons-Laffitte eleven days ago

    5. EKAITZANA - By Dabirsim and will be the first foal to run out of a dam that was unraced

    6. LALACELLE - Has been runner up in claimers at Fontainebleau and Chantilly. Leading chance

    7. PANTHERA TIGRIS - A few creditable runs in claimers so far but needs to improve to feature here today

    8. VERENY KA - Fair fourth behind Jayadeeva in a claimer here last time out. Place prospects today

    9. BIRKIE QUEEN - Well beaten in all three of her starts in the UK to date but is dropped in class today

    10. BAIE DE SOMME - Disappointing in both of her starts, here and at Lyon Parilly. Others preferred

    Summary The UK raider (2) CARMAGUE was third on his debut at Windsor before finishing fourth of seven behind Has D'Emra in a claimer at Saint-Cloud last month. He gets a tentative vote ahead of (6) LALACELLE who has been runner up in claimers at Fontainebleau and Chantilly and can be in the mix again today. (1) EQUINOZIO and (8) VERENY KA are next best.

  • Race 7 1. RADJA - Four time winner from twenty three but must better a last time out effort at Saint-Cloud

    2. ROYAL PRIZE - Seven time winner from sixty six and can be difficult to predict at times

    3. GET EVEN - Just the one win from fifteen starts. The percentage call is to call against

    4. DIGICODE - A dual winner from thirty runs and a good second at Le Lion-d'Angers last time out

    5. EVA GLITTERS - Just the one success from twenty one and the handicapper is very slow to relent

    6. SUREWECAN - A three time winner from thirty one runs and capable on day although not last time

    7. SANT ANGELO - Four wins from twenty runs and was going for a hat trick when sixth last time at Baden-Baden

    8. AMADEUS WOLFE TONE - Very good strike rate with a dozen wins from sixty six. Last of those was a long while back however

    Summary Sascha Smrczek is a very shrewd trainer and moreover when he travels his animals so the tip should be taken here with his supplementary entry, (7) SANT ANGELO, who was on a hat trick when beaten at Baden-Baden last time. He can bounce right back today. (3) GET EVEN and (4) DIGICODE are more obvious candidates with (1) RADJA slightly lesser so.

  • Race 8 1. CONTROVENTO - One success from half a dozen runs but below par at ParisLongchamp last time out

    3. LEVIA - Just the one place from her five outings and will do well to take this event

    4. NUIT ROSE - One place from three runs and surely has a ticket to improve here today

    5. NEVER TOO OLD - Placed two times inn six outings and was runner up last time out at Angers

    6. SHANDROS - Remains a maiden after ten outings and that could be the case again now today

    7. CHIPIRON - One win from nine which came three starts back in a claimer at Maisons-Laffitte and placed twice since

    8. POETIC DIVA - Still a maiden after seven outings and has still to register a place as of yet

    9. AIR DE CRISTAL - Finished sixth in all three runs and will be hoping for better here now

    10. LAURA GAME - Still a maiden after seven runs but was third at Angers last time out which was better

    Summary A very interesting handicap for the three year old's. The top weight (1) CONTROVENTO was very consistent up to a blip last time out at ParisLongchamp and as it always pays to forgive a horse one bad run, he is made the selection. (2) OLIVE GROVE looks a nice sort. (4) NUIT ROSE and (6) SHANDROS can hit the frame.

    8. DECOLORATION - Fine campaigner who has bounced to form recently. Will have a role to play

    9. DIVINE DE NAVARY - Showed signs of a return to form last time and could get a look in if confirming

    10. DONA VIVA - Back in the game with a last-start victory and capable of following up

    11. DEXTASE MONTAVAL - Well tried this year without success but seldom far off the mark either. Place chance

    12. DIGITALE - Consistent for the most part under the saddle and unlikely to shake things up in this code

    13. DULCINEE DU DOLLAR - Has struggled this year but remains capable on a going day and could surprise

  • Summary (10) DONA VIVA bounced back to winning ways at Laval recently beating male rivals. Again unshod and back against her own sex, she looks likely to follow up here. Also barefoot and with Yoann Lebourgeois engaged, (8) DECOLORATION should pose a threat. Both (3) DALIE DU CITRUS and (5) DEVISE DU VIVIER are well placed to get a look in too with their shoes removed.

    5. BON COPAIN - Has done nothing noteworthy in either start this year under harness. Others preferred

    7. VIVIER DE L'OISON - Hasn't won for a long time but continues to hold his form. Will be competitive

    8. AL CAPONE JET - Sanctioned in each of three starts under harness this year. Capable of better

    9. CARLY - Has been in sensational form this term and can continue on his winning way

    10. CASSATE - Will need to improve many lengths on recent form to trouble the market leaders. Others preferred

    11. VOLCAN DE BELLANDE - Has done little of note in recent starts so is hard to make a case for. Chances limited

    12. VAQUERO DU MONT - Battling to regain any sort of form and must reaffirm. Others preferred

    13. VERTIGE DE CHENU - Capable dual-purpose trotter. Occasionally ill-disciplined but otherwise seldom far from the action.

    Summary A quality Group III event but at the mercy of prolific (9) CARLY who returned to winning ways last time in impressive fashion. Veterans (3) CARLA DU CHATELET and (7) VIVIER DE L'OISON are consistent performers at this level and should again be competitive. Versatile dual-purpose trotter cannot be disregarded either and could have a role to play.

    4. FORTUNA AVIS - Confirmed improved recent form with last-start success. Will be comppetitive

    5. FOLIE BLONDE - Useful dual-purpose trotter but races fully shod, so others preferred

    8. FLEUR DE LARRE - Has turned a corner since racing barefoot. Can get a look in under the conditions

    9. FRAMBOISE - Showed improvement last time under these conditions. More needed to play a role here

    10. FLOWER WOOD - Delicate but considerably talented and could earn a cheque if applied

    11. FOXY LADY - Fine servant excelling over shorter trips since the autumn. One to beat

    12. FREEDOM CEIJY - Well campaigned filly who has won two of her last three completed races. Delicate but remains capable

    13. FILLY RAINBOW - Undeniably capable but can prove a handful. Should have a role to play if applied

    14. FAUVETTE MADRIK - Holding form well and remains barefoot. Can finish in the money once again

    15. FEE DE LUNOJO - Well regarded but hasnt been living up to expectations. Others preferred

  • could also be said of last-start winner (7) FAMILY QUEEN. Both (13) FILLY RAINBOW and (4) FORTUNA AVIS are capable of getting a look in too.

  • Race 4 1. GABION DEVOL - Impressive winner on debut and likely to play another prominent role from an ideal starting spot

    2. GAMIN DE FOURCHES - Runner-up in two consecutive starts prior to disappointing recent efforts. Must reaffirm

    3. GOLD GEDE - Has shown promise when applied but remains delicate. Must get his house in order

    4. GU D'HERIPRE - Sanctioned on debut but has done nothing but improve when keeping stride. Chance if applied

    5. GYPSE BLANC - Well beaten in hat-trick bid last time and on that evidence can be overlooked

    6. GENTLEMAN - Built on the promise of debut second to open his account last time. More to come

    7. GOLDEN VISAIS - Has shown considerable ability since his successful January debut but is often ill-disciplined

    8. GUERRIER DE BRETT - Seldom far off. Likely to improve after a fair 4th on his comeback last time - place chance

    9. GOUT BAROQUE - Quality colt who has confirmed promise of his debut win in subsequent starts. The one to beat

    10. GOLD DES MARES - Last-start winner who has made smart improvement recently. Has a role to play

    11. GOLD PIQUENARD - Not devoid of ability but must bounce back to earlier form to earn a cheque

    12. GENTE DI ROMA - Can prove a handful but has shown useful ability. Has earning potential

    Summary (9) GOUT BAROQUE was an impressive winner at Cordemais prior to his last-start sanction and the form of that victory has since been franked by the runner-up. He will be hard to beat if applied throughout, though will face stiff competition from debut scorer (1) GABION DEVOL who is well placed to play a prominent role.

  • GENTLEMAN

  • Race 5 1. GANAKA - Appears to have lost her way recently and needs to reaffirm. Watch for now

    2. GALILEE DES PRES - Last-start winner who has improved with each outing. More needed though to win again

    3. GLINKA GRAZIA - Runner-up in two of her four starts under harness but has only a place chance

    4. GEORGIA BROWN - Twice second in her last three starts. More needed to win and is only a place prospect

    5. GELA DE BELLOUET - Winner on debut and has confirmed that promise in two starts since. Has earning potential

    6. GAGNEUSE D'OR - Winner on debut and runner-up next time but only 55th last time. Place chance

    7. GERA - Showed promise over the winter but subsequently went off the boil. Must reaffirm

    8. GRAZIELLA - Has not much room for maneuver and others make more appeal. Outsider here

    9. GRAVALETA - Unbeaten after two starts and likely to have her supporters again. Player

    10. GAZELLE DU BOURG - Tricky type but starting to come good when applied. Another with earning potential

    11. GABY - Off the mark at Caen two starts back but sanctioned last time. Could make amends

    12. GRAVURE GEMA - has improved from debut 4th to win next two starts. Big runner in hat-trick bid

    13. GERMAINE DE CORDAY - Hardy filly, seldom far off the mark but still has her work cut out for her here

    Summary Trainer Sebastien Guarato is well armed here and his charges (11) GABY and (8) GRAZIELLA could dominate the outcome. The former is forgiven her recent sanction and is given the nod on the evidence of her prior outing when successful at Caen in late April. Her stable companion (8) GRAZIELLA also disappointed last time out but should be competitive if bouncing back to her earlier form. Hat-trick seekers (9) GRAVALETA and (12) GRAVURE GEMA will have their supporters too, while (5) GELA DE BELLOUET and (6) GAGNEUSE D'OR have both shown enough to get a look in too. Great contest!

  • Race 6 1. BRISE DU CHOQUEL - Seldom disappoints in the amateur division and well placed to give this a good go

    2. CAGNOISE D'AGON - One of the more consistent elements here. Twice a winner this year in the amateur category

    3. CARMELA - Inconsistent three-time winner is usually not far off the mark. Place chance

    4. BANANA PEEL - Likely to need this outing, which is her first of the year. Watch for now

    5. COCONUT BOND - Not without ability but is unlikely to win and has only a place chance

    6. BIQUET DIDJEAP - Has appeared to be regressing of late and must reaffirm. Others preferred

    7. CALDEIRA TURGOT - Not the most reliable horse here but remains capable of playing an active role

    8. DANSEUR DU HOULBET - Unexceptional trotter. Won an Enghien claimer on his return two starts back but will need to do more here

    9. DOLLY DU QUESNE - In-and-out sort who remains capable but ultimately inconsistent. Others preferred

    10. CARRERA DU CLOSET - Confirmed recent improvement with last-start success. More needed here but not overlooked

    11. BOY DE REBOMARD - Disappointing of late but has considerable ability when applied. Could surprise

    12. BARBADINE PASSION - Moderate mare who seldom makes any impact. Well beaten in both starts this year and of little appeal

    13. DUR D'OREYE - Classy campaigner with references at a better level. Will be involved at the finish

    14. BORDERLINE - Disappointed last time after back-to-back seconds, so needs to reaffirm

    Summary (2) CAGNOISE D'AGON acquitted herself well last time in a stronger race and a repeat of that effort from an ideal starting berth should see her contest the outcome. (13) DUR D'OREYE has hit the woodwork in his last three starts but will score sooner rather than later, so must be respected. (7) CALDEIRA TURGOT, (9) DOLLY DU QUESNE and (14) BORDERLINE all disappointed in

  • their respective recent outings but could shake things up if bouncing back to their earlier form.

  • Race 7 1. GRANTURISMO LEPINE - Sanctioned in both starts under harness. Needs to show more switching codes

    2. GRANIT D'OCCAGNES - Finished 3rd on debut before last-start sanction. Open to improvement if applied

    3. GENLOU BLOND - Built on debut disqualification to win last start. Will have more to come

    4. GUTENBERG DE DYPP - Winner under harness two starts back but often ill-disciplined. Switches codes

    5. GEEK DES CHARRONS - Seldom far off the mark but more is needed to win. Others are preferred

    6. GAVROCHE BEST - Much-improved last start but needs to find more to feature. Others preferred

    7. GENERAL - Winner under the saddle last year. Bounced back to form last time in second start back and should play a role

    8. GEGE DU HOULME - Ran a big race at Enghien four starts back but has been sanctioned twice since. Must reaffirm

    9. GAILLARD DE LARRE - Sanctioned last time when switching to this code. Needs to improve to have a say

    10. GOLDENBOY MAYBE - Made a winning start in this code and has confirmed since. Will play a prominent role

    11. GAVROCHE KILY - Last-start winner who has improved with every outing. Should make presence felt

    12. GRAFFITI JIEL - Showed early promise under harness when applied. Could have a say switching codes

    13. GAUCHO BLUE - Winner on debut in this code and runner-up under harness last time. Warrants respect

    14. GEF DE PLAY - Runner-up on debut and with natural improvement should be competitive again. Dark horse

    Summary Good race to end. (10) GOLDENBOY MAYBE has taken well to this branch of the game. He made a winning start to the year in this code and ran well in defeat last time, and a repeat of either effort will see him feature prominently. There are dangers aplenty, though, with promising duo (7) GENERAL and (3) GENLOU BLOND both capable of posing a threat. (11) GAVROCHE KILY and (13)

  • GAUCHO BLUE can get a look in too, although (14) GEF DE PLAY isn't without a chance either.
