Andre Fabre is looking to add to his solitary victory on Dubai World Cup night at Meydan with four runners on Saturday

The master French trainer won the 2004 Sheema Classic with Polish Summer, although Loup Sauvage did finish third in the 1998 World Cup behind Silver Charm and Swain.

He will be represented in the World Cup this year by Godolphin's Talismanic, the Breeders' Cup Turf winner who narrowly failed to follow up in the Hong Kong Vase behind Highland Reel.

Talismanic faces a switch to dirt but he is at least by a stallion in Medaglia D'Oro who was second in the 2004 World Cup.

Cloth Of Stars arguably has a better chance in the Sheema Classic, having finished second to Enable in last season's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.

The two took each other on at Chantilly earlier this month, with Talismanic coming out on top.

"When Cloth Of Stars and Talismanic raced against each other, they showed me just what I wanted," said Fabre.

"Whether they will race each other again will depend on how they do here. There are many possibilities in Europe and the races that are still to come will be their main targets.

"They have had a good preparation and I've been very happy with them since."

Fabre also runs Trais Fluors in the Dubai Turf and Rosa Imperial in the Godolphin Mile.

"I'm looking forward to it," said Fabre.

"A long time ago I won the Sheema Classic with Polish Summer and I've been third in the World Cup.

"It's a very fair course, a nice layout. It's a very good course."
