      Yeah, I've only backed 2 and both sets of connections are saying similar stuff.
      Have Auguste Rodin as second leg of a double with GDC (gold cup 23) from October last year, as well as the German horse I backed last week.

      Looks like I want better ground than Benjy.

        Arrest for me

        With the ground now gd, gd to soft in places and bits of rain forecast each day he is the play at 8/1
        Supposed to have been raining all day at Doncaster

        With the heavy dews we get in the morning each day at this time of the year that should guarantee the ground being gd to soft at best

        That will be enough to guarantee him running, if it gets to proper soft ground which is possible with the forecast hes the one to beat imo

        Hopefully havlin doesn't ride him with frankie set to stick with gregory

              I really don't care what he gets. It won't be enough to stop him. He's absolutely made for the race and Willie is finally taking that Cup home for the first time.

              I'm going in again.

                  Looks like Fantastic Moon will be heading to the U.S and Japan, according to this report.

                    Despite having run out the convincing winner of the G2 Prix Niel, one of Sunday's key Arc trials at Longchamp, the Deutsches Derby winner Fantastic Moon (Ger) (Sea The Moon {Ger}) will not run in this year's G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. Instead he has potential trips to America and Japan on his agenda,

                    • AMELIA'S JEWEL ​runs this weekend but what big race is she likely to head for if her prep races go to plan?

                      14/10 Toorak h/c OR King Charles III

                      28/10 Cox Plate OR 4/11 Golden Eagle

                      A head scratcher to say the least as there's no cash out so I've just backed her for the lot

                      I'm really hoping she ends up at the Cox Plate.

                      If she goes to the Golden Eagle then she'll be on a potential collision course with Legarto and possibly Giga Kick​​​​​​

                      • Looks like Frankie on Arrest in the Leger and Shoemark on Gregory.

                        Edit: Confirmed now.

                        Not convinced it'll actually end up being that soft. 21 degrees a gentle breeze and no rain tomorrow. Donny usually drains pretty well doesn't it?

                        • Suspect it will end up either soft/good to soft in places or good to soft/soft in places

                          Depending how much rain they get today

                          They were probably putting water down last week and we get very heavy dews in the morning at this time of year that will put more moisture down

                          Suspect gregory will drift now so will add him to my arrest bet if he gets big enough

                          Not convinced by continous, middle earth or desert hero myself

                          Can see Tower Of London Running a nice race

                          • Reckon it'll be good to soft. And fine for Gregory.

                            Only thing that puts me off is Frankie riding him in work yesterday and not Arrest and then making the switch afterwards.

                            • Can see if now. Arrest NR on the day and Frankie back on Gregory.

                              • The main problem for gregory will be Denmark and alexandroupolis

                                Coolmore will be making sure he doesn't get any easy lead to try and set the race up for Continous and Tower of London
