Both Dawn Intello and Alfareeq won on the all-weather at Deauville when last in action and Port Guillaume is unbeaten in a couple of outings at Cagnes-Sur-Mer for Jean-Claude Rouget’s powerful yard. Green Spirit scored in heavy going at Deauville back in October while Mare Australis made a winning debut in November when successful at Munich and has been switched to Andre Fabre’s yard subsequently. ENZEL may not have beaten much when scoring over a slightly shorter trip here on his debut but couldn’t have done it any easier and could be anything. He gets the vote to make a winning return.
