INTISAR DE MONLAU (7) was well supported when resuming last time out over 2000m in Group 2 grade at La Teste De Buch and proved too strong, scoring by 2.5 lengths. Won at her only second-up appearance and will be a tough nut to crack again. NORMA AL MAURY (1) is a promising five-year-old mare who returned from a break last start and finished 1.5 lengths away in third over 2000m at Group 2 level at this track. Leading player. LADY DE FAUST (4) resumes from a spell of eight months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 2000m in Group 1 grade at Saint-Cloud. Rates highly and is a chance to break through. ETEHAD AL SHAHANIA (2) resumes after a break of eight months. Hoping for a repeat of her debut win over 2000m at Aurillac to kick off last prep. Makes plenty of appeal.
