Bow Echo and Gstaad were due to clash for a fourth time in Sunday's feature at Deauville. However, Gstaad was ruled out of the race through injury, before Bow Echo was forced into retirement after meeting with his own setback.

In their absence, Aidan O'Brien's Precise tops the betting. O'Brien's filly won the Irish 1000 Guineas and the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot, before losing out to Blue Bolt in both the Falmouth Stakes the Prix Rothschild.

Fozzy Stack could step Thesecretadversary up to a mile follow his maiden Group One success in the Prix Jean Prat. French 2000 Guineas winner Rayif is the leading home contender in the market. Ballydoyle second-string Puerta Rico and Robson Aguiar's Power Blue could bolster the three-year-old contingent.

Zeus Olympios will return to Group One company following his victory in the Celebration Mile. More Thunder could only finish fourth that day, having been narrowly beaten in the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot. Two Japanese raiders will also take their chance in Sunday's feature, with Group One winner Sixpence sitting much higher in the betting than Listed winner Strauss.

Stephane Wattel will be represented by recent Prix Edmund Blanc winner Dreamliner. Group Two scorer No Lunch is the sole runner for Christophe Ferland. German raider, Sir Tommy Cen is the outsider of the field.
