Deauville Prince ran with credit to finish a close fourth in the Group Three Prix Des Chenes at Longchamp.

The juvenile had beaten subsequent Acomb second and Listed winner Steeler when shedding his maiden tag before his last foray to France when finishing fourth in a Listed contest at Deauville.

He had subsequently scored at that level in Ripon's Champion Two Year Old Trophy but Tom Dascombe's colt just missed out on the places on his return to the continent.

The son of Holy Roman Emperor was only narrowly beaten behind the Pearl Bloodstock owned Pearl Flute on his step up to a mile with the winner scoring by three parts of a length, a short-head and a head under Umberto Rispoli.
