DESERT ROSE (5) missed the placings first up recently but was not too far from the winner when fourth over 1200m at Fontainebleau. Alexis Pouchin stays aboard. Should be in the finish. GAST A GAST (4) was safely held when seventh last time out over 1600m at Chantilly All Weather, beaten 7 lengths. That followed a win at Deauville All Weather at the previous outing. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. EASY STAR (12) is yet to break through in four runs. Finished fifth at her last appearance over 1200m at Fontainebleau on March 7. Worth including in this suitable contest. SHEARKAN (10) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1200m at Fontainebleau, beaten 3 lengths. Will strip fitter this time. Nicely placed to fill a top-three spot again.
