Andre Fabre has a five-strong team in an attempt to land the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe for the eighth time at Longchamp on Sunday.
Prix du Jockey Club winner Intello (stall nine) is his best hope, according to the bookmakers, with Flintshire (seven), Ocovango (13), Godolphin's Penglai Pavilion (10) and Pirika (three) completing his nap hand of runners.
"I think the ground will be good to soft come Sunday, which Flintshire should be able to handle. I've been very happy with him and as for the draw, I always think that is only a problem if there is no pace. I'm hoping for a good pace, then there will be no problems," said Fabre.
