Yeats could clash with Francois Doumen’s smart dual-purpose performer Kasbah Bliss in Saturday’s Prix du Cadran at Longchamp.

Aidan O’Brien’s star stayer won an historic third Ascot Gold Cup in June and followed up in more impressive style at Goodwood.
However, his last defeat came in the corresponding race 12 months ago when he could finish only third.

O’Brien has also left in his Melbourne Cup possibles Septimus and Honolulu in the two-and-a-half-mile event.

Kasbah Bliss, who finished second in the World Hurdle, appears to have had his jumping career postponed for the time being after an emphatic six-length success at Group Three level last time.

Last year’s German winner Le Miracle is entered again along with John Queally’s smart hurdler Al Eile.
