        Verdict

        Mosse and Dods teamed up to land the Prix de L'Abbaye at Longchamp last term and the combination is taken to strike again with INTENSE ROMANCE. The course and distance winner looked in need of her Naas reappearance despite not being beaten far on ground that was probably too quick for her. She'll be well suited by forecast conditions, was highly progressive last term and a strong performance is expected. Danzeno is a danger after bouncing back to form last weekend in terrific style but this rates a stronger contest, whilst Stake Acclaim is another who'll relish the ground and looks one for the shortlist. Tarboosh has a shout at his best and this battle-hardened sort usually runs his race.
