Nice discussion RE the Epsom big races lads.
I think Camelot is the horse but the nailed on value is without question IMPERIAL MONARCH e/w @ 14s
I wouldnt be put off the forecast either.
The Oaks is a funny race. I simply cannot have Maybe at 2/1. She might be super over the trip, but its a hell of a chance you'd be taking. KISSED has been one of the most visually impressive horses from the Ballydoyle female side of the team and looked every inch an Oaks filly when I saw her on debut last year. Will not desert her
Was is a potential fly in the ointment if putting reappearance behind her and I'll be nibbling at double figure prices if she lines up. Hard not to be impressed by The Fugue but in reality Twirl was not especially impressive this season and you feel The Fugue is a skinny price now tacking better AOB horses.
Very good race is The Oaks and there is some value to be had I feel.
Coronation Cup might be a small field. Beaten Up would have a very good chance if bouncing back from his effort overseas, and say what you like about St Nicholas Abbey, he has been very consistent since his return as a 4 Y O last year and with a good ride he will go very close to a repeat.
