FINK PLOYD (3) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1800m at Salon-de-Provence eight weeks ago. Sure to be further improved and can make it back-to-back wins. ROMANCE CERTAINE (8) finished 2 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1800m at Longchamp, an improvement on her first-up seventh at Chantilly All Weather the run before. Won't find this as tough so she is a major player. RETIRO (1) returns after a spell of three-and-a-half months. Looking to emulate his win at Pau All Weather at the beginning of last prep. One to consider. LE MATELOT (5) comes here following a win over 1800m at Langon-Libourne six weeks ago, getting home by 3 lengths. This sets up nicely.
