Had a nice bet on Willcox Inn....thats all. 5/1 eachway. Suspect he'll be bang there fighting it out so with Tresure Beach cornering the market I'll go for him.

Loves it around Arlington. Smashed the Kentucky Derby winner, Animal Kingdom, around here in a Maiden Special Weight, won the Arlington Classic and Amercian Derby here recently, very uncomplicated ride with bags of tactical speed, handles any going, improving and comming into the race on a massive high. Like what I see here imo.

Also think the French horse will very nice pacemaker for him and give a good target to run down off the turn.

not scared of treasure beach. no idea why they are pointing for this. What a move from left field by Aidan...got to give props for it but TB looked in massive need of a break last time. Okay on paper this is easier than going toe to toe with Seville, Pour Moi and Nathaniel but I suspect they probably know he wont be a major factor in any of the top european end of season races so decided to send him here.

Any thoughs on Cape Blaco lads?

Surely Jamie will just ping him out attack attack attack again. Pace carries so well in this particualar race. Probably wont even need to go hard early. The Tin Man clocked something like 56seconds for the 1/2 when he stole it a few years back. Would be nice to see Cape turning 4 lengths clear and the race done and dusted.

not really an expert on the US stuff, ELG. That said, im not an expert on anything.Laugh

Frank was very confident of Cape winning again the other day. Reckons he took his time to settle back after Dubai and should improve again for his last win.

Can't believe Treasure Beach is running here, hardly an ideal prep for the Arc. Tbh II'm starting to think that he will not even line up in the race.

RE Cape Blanco, I thought he would be much shorter after his demolition job last time out. Is there any pace to take him on up front???
