Re the draw. On Very soft ground the field tend to get more strung out with several not handling the conditions, but on Goodish ground they tend...
Hi Quartermoon. More horses return for a second crack at the Arc than you might think, although its a matter of opinion as to whether they're top...
Hi Quartermoon. Agree that he should win the Foy in the absence of Novellist & Al Kazeem & his price will contract as a result. Opinions make...
Hi OddDog. I don't completely dismiss Orfevre's chances but I'm a little surprised that he is quite so highly rated by so many Keen minds. For me,...
You mean we 'Can't have our cake & eat it' Surely something is better than nothing. Half Ours ? Only if he wins.
PS. Ron, we may have another Live hope to get behind. Isn't Flintshire British bred ?
Hi Ron. I'm probably only a 50/50 chance to go to the Arc this year. With good ground and a low draw, The Fugue might be our best chance. Backed...
Thanks again Quartermoon. Very interesting and informative. I stayed under cover with a beer in hand during the race that day, but still have the...
Thanks Quartermoon. From your account, it sounds like I'm being unfair & that the heavy ground couldn't have been predicted the day before. Was it...
P.S. When O'Brien gave his opinion on the Going for the Arc, I assumed that it was an informed opinion & not blind Guesswork. So who do we think...
Thanks Quartermoon. Hope you get good weather on the day & have a great time. I was so surprised by the ground for the Arc last year after...
Hi Quartermoon. Will you travel to longchamp the day before the racing (ie 14th) and if so, would you be in a position to give us a 'Heads up' re...
For anti-post Arc purposes, it could be interesting to consider what effect soft/heavy ground for the trials might have. E.g. Flintshire should...
Hi Ron. Arc time once again ! Like many on here last year, I backed Orfevre last year at 12/1 as my second string behind Camelot. However, I was...
This looks difficult. On previous years performances CDA & SNA look to be the best form choices but Swain remains the only horse older than 5 yrs...
Thanks OddDog. Chicquita makes up for Pastorius last week. Still can't believe how he ran so badly. Firm ground ?
Chicquita at Curragh 6.15pm & Arc De Triomphe. See Irish Oaks thread.
Hi SMP. I had a speculative EW on Chicquita at 10/1 earlier this week. Also had it added to the Betfair market for the Arc. I thought it lost...
Pastorius was very disappointing. Apologies to anyone I might have swayed into backing him.
Hi OddDog. Thanks for the reply. There was an interview on the morning line where they stated that Pastorius picked up an injury during the race...
