Caen

Barefoot for the first time after having been conditioned in Paris last month, MELODIE D'AMOUR (7) has clearly been prepared for this and has a realistic claim on the spoils. Alexandre Abrivard will still be mindful though of recent Cagnes winner, MA BICHE NOA (8), who has not been blessed with the best of draws either, and MA JOLIE CHOSE (2) who would have finished close at Laval recently had she stayed in stride. Barefoot following a pair of return runs, MADISHA JOSSELYN (9) has been entrusted to Yoann Lebourgeois for the first time and is very hard to ignore.
