Forever's Girl was a convincing winner yesterday, to save an otherwise disappointing day.  The big bet of the day, Talwar, looked to be going well and getting in the mix, but faded in the final furlong.

Big day in France today and The Arc is shaping up to be the race of the year.  There are many with chances, and we'll be backing one of them that offers great value.  Treasure Beach was a nose away from winning the Epsom Derby, and went one better than that, in lifting the Irish Derby.  He is way overpriced today.  While 33/1 is available elsewhere, with Betfred paying 4 places, well take the 28/1 avaiable with them.

Three in all today:

Tipperary

2.35pm Crystal Morning
1.5pt Each Way bet
Current Betfair price: 15.0
Best available elsewhere: 9/1 (Bet365)

4.40pm Murbrook

Current Betfair price: 5.8
Best available elsewhere: 6/1 (Boyles)

Longchamp

3.15pm Treasure Beach
1pt Each Way bet
Current Betfair price: 34.0
Best available elsewhere: 28/1 (BetFred - paying 4 places)
