Top-class miler The Revenant is back in action at Saint-Cloud on Saturday.

Winner of the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot in 2020 and fourth to Baaeed 12 month ago, the Francis-Henri Graffard-trained seven-year-old made a spectacular return to action when taking the Prix Altipan at this track early last month.
