    ​​​​​​Changed their minds and going Arc now. All over the place this race!

      Champion Stakes going to be a tap in for baaeed then, who's even going to be against him?

        Avoiding Baeed definitely looks a more likely reason than the four week out weather forecast they're claiming

        Not sure they'll be many left to face him will there! All those in behind in the betting look to have other priorities. Especially if it is soft/heavy. May be worth a look for an each way play at a big price, that isn't ground dependant, in the hope of a small field. Although there's enough entered!

        • Adayar sounds far from certain now. Sounds like preference is for the champion stakes but will be left in Arc and run if it's good ground...

          • Sounds like if the Arc is run on deep ground again, Which it most likely will be, the race race will really cut up. The soft/Heavy ground performers must be the value.

              Looking at the weather forecast it's pretty unlikely to be deep ground

                History says otherwise and I don't trust forecasting this far out. We'll see though.

                  It's only just over a week away so isn't gonna be miles off

                  Bound to be some rain but really doesn't look enough to make the ground close to heavy

                    • No real surprises in the Arc entries.

                      Clerk saying it could be anything between good to soft and very soft as well...

                      No other Longchamp cards on RP still!

                        Thought my ante post on Laurel was dead and buried… initially taken out of the Sun Chariot but now being supplemented… 8s still a cracking e/w price imo

                          Do you think she'll be at 100% after running a couple of weeks before the race? She didn't seem to use too much energy last time out. Looks like she'll handle the Newmarket track too and I think enough improvement could be in hand to challenge the likes of Saffron Beach. Best prices 6/1 now but I think her starting price will be shorter.

                            It'd take a huge amount of improvement realistically

                            Going straight from novice to group 1 company is a huge step that horses almost never bridge

                            She was given an RPR of 114 last time

                            Saffron beach RPR 130

                            She's going to need to be exceptional to win this on her 3rd start

                              All fair points but I’ll be surprised if she’s not a fair few pounds ahead of her mark… Gosden not usually one to tilt at windmills is he and think the supplementary fee for a race she had an initial entry for is telling.
