Over the last 20 renewals, it was Marchand DOr, trained by F Head and ridden by Davy Bonilla, who set the fastest winning time in the Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp. That runner won the race in a time of 54.40 in 2008. At the other end of the scale, it was the combination of trainer Robert Collet and jockey Gerald Mosse with Wizz Kid who set the slowest winning time; the race-winning time was 1:01.17 in the 2012 renewal.

What the expert says...
The Flying Five Stakes at the Curragh has in recent years proved a decent prep-race for this, with four of the last five winners coming from that race after finishing 2nd, 5th, 3rd & 7th, including all of the last three.
