Ectot - Prince Of Wales's Stakes

This is a serious horse and I think he has an outstanding chance today. A G1 winner as a 2-y-o, he beat subsequent Guineas and Breeders' Cup winner Karakontie on his 3-y-o debut but missed the first French Classic itself because of injury. He reappeared later in the season with a comfortable win in the Prix Niel but ran a bad race in the Arc on his next and final start at three. That early season 3-y-o form is outstanding.

If he's suited by a drop back in trip to today's 10 furlongs then 7.2 on here is a tremendous price. I do have serious doubts though that he won't find this a little sharp as being by Hurricane Run out of a Linamix mare his pedigree suggests he'd prefer further, but for me the price compensates for that and as stated previously, he did have Classic speed at three.
