I have had a spec bet on Cashbox +13+ .
Ran well enough on debut behind Gewan . That race has produced the winners of four races since and Gewan is favourite for The Champagne .
Following that Cashbox has failed to stay in , what looked like , moderate events , However , one of those events was won in a pretty good time and the other was at Brighton . The Brighton winner runs in a Gp2 tomorrow . The drop back in trip might help and 50/1 was too tempting . De Souza will be wielding the cosh . The prize money ensures that the horse will be off and some might be able to bet e/w 5 places .

If they all turn up Delacroix would be a lay if odds on .
I suspect he will shorten to 4/5 . He plays up and has a new rider .
Expanded is a forgotten horse but his two poor runs have been in G1 events and his baby form was at the back end .

This is tricky since most are Arc bound and will not be 100% fit .
Iresine goes well here and runs well when fresh .
Do not write him off as he ran a fine race in last year's Champion .  A plausible e/w hope .

2lb per length so wide open , No Half Measure has run well here and Diligent Harry could surprise a few people .
........Lazzat should drift and if it touches 7/2 it becomes backable.

Whirl has to be a lay here . The top two are Arc probables and will not be 100% fit . If you have your wits about you you will have noticed what looks like a discrepancy . It is not wrong , I have used the correct wfa scale .

Before declarations Godolphin had the top rated , Wild Desert .

Every horse has his price and 66/1 about the Meehan gelding is too big   also soft ground might suit him .

I have omitted the Prix Morny because the 2 y o form is like shifting sand . The Coventry form is starting to look shaky and a Wes Ward runner is unknown to me .
No Such Thing is looking very well treated at the moment .

The top figure comes from the Irish Sweeps and is quite likely to be a fluke but there are lines that lend some weight to the argument for Thrice . You can forget his 2 y o form .
Do not overlook the penalties carried by Lambourn and Carmers .

The figure for Asfoora is from Ascot . She was outpaced in this last year and there is no lack of pace this time .
The York form for Washington Heights is worth reading .
3lb per length here

The general level for Birr Castle is around +8 but the +2 and a +3 are in the book . He has form with Ace Impact . I would genuinely piss myself if Andre Fabre won it with a horse that he had lent to John Gosden .
When Danon Decile won in the desert he beat Calandagan , Durezza , Rebels Romance and Shin Emperor . Nec Plus Ultra .
