At least good ground. Probably on the faster side as has been the case this week.
|

By:
Cualificar is 33/1, Dela.
|
|
By:
He is Brandy with the B’s but he’s not listed on the exchange, there are only 72 listed and 73 entries, so it’s a false market and odd to me.
I’ve written and asked for him to be added but they palm you off with “it’s been passed on to our trading team.” |
|
By:
We should be able to play/trade the odds there also.
|
|
By:
the mile group 3 looks a decent betting race.
|
|
By:
I see what you mean.
Strange that they are missing him. |
|
By:
It is Brandy, as he doesn’t have much to find with Kalpana on that ST Cloud Run.
No Arc horse for the Aga there, though the fav and Montreal flopped the form of the JC still was franked by Pearled Majesty last time out when beating today’s winner the exposed Baroud. Looks a poor race on first impression. But Boudout is schooling them all and riding really well since his return. |

By:
I hope at least 2 3 yr olds win the ARC trials. And, unless a 3 yr old colt or filly wins this yr's renewal the winner will not amount to much, in my opinion.
|
|
By:
I can’t have anything from the PDJC or GPDP as said to you Impossible I think that the fillies were better.
|
|
By:
The filly that may usurp all could be from AOB / Coolmore however much I detest them ie Diamond Necklace. But, at the moment it's still too risky to back her if there is a change of plan, etc. I hate being conned by this lot of charlatans of horseracing.
|
|
By:
On the lines the AGA filly had her beating and they have the beating of the colts through who Pink Pantera beat prior her Dine run.
It’s a 8/1 gamble right now Impossible and I’d prefer that than backing Kaplana at the same price. |

The ground is going to play a massive part, there’s the horses who want soft and those who’ll take their chances if it’s firm.
I don’t think that Calandgan is the same horse and I’m looking to a less exposed type even older as an each way play. I don’t like having a bet in a race once I’ve had one and may regret it but I’ll do so for the interest. I’d mentioned Fabre’s horse not being quoted and he’s ran another stinker today, he did last year at Deauville when beaten by the Japanese Alohi Ali. Maybe it’s just not his track? He and Kalpana both have one thing in common. That is that their only unplaced run was in the Arc, well before today that stat could be attached to him. One was 8/1 the other 33/1. I watched back last years Arc a few days back, I’d recommend anyone who’s backed Kalpana to do so too. Both horse ran unplaced for the first time there, Buick rode a stinker aboard the Fabre 3yr old QualityCar but I couldn’t see any excuse for Kalpana? The one thing that may have been a thumbs down was that she was ridden too wide perhaps? Too wide, too prominent? But when let down she didn’t find much and was caught easily by Sosie. She only has half a furlong of kick, so if she’s drawn wide I’d hold no hope. She’d need to be handy and hope that she can hold on after taking a 1L or two out of those behind. |
|
By:
I do not fancy Kalpana however, I do hope the Balding clan would win this race. I've taken a chance with a £1 win double with Pierre on Tuesday at York.
|
|
By:
She also lost her cheek piece after the false home straight.
Only two firms have pushed the Fabre flop today out, b&h 40/1 & 50/1 |
|
By:
Good luck Impossible.
|
|
By:
Such a shame about Behrayna. She'd be a major player for sure.
|
|
By:
I think the winner of The Voltigeur, Maltese Cross, will go for this race. Unless an outstanding 3 yr old surfaces in the ARC trials, this must be the race for Maltese Cross who gave 5lbs and a beating to Pierre Bonnard.

Ive bet Maltese Cross..think arc trip will suit. |
|
By:
What odds did ya get? As low as 6/1 with bet in numbers!
River went fav for this before the International  |
|
By:
I’ll be backing two for this, one at double figure odds another in the bar forgotten about.
|
|
By:
had £75 ew at 22/1
|
|
By:
I've rowed in with Diamond Necklace, assuming she goes for this. Then maybe Maltese Cross, if the former assumption is awry, and an outstanding 3yr old emerges from one of the ARC Trials.
Con River will never go for this. It's just not in the dna of Coolmore. |
|
By:
Thank you H-H you’ll post this wager should he win or place on the day?
|
|
By:
I wasn’t taken by the win today Impossible, despite the penalty, Pierre looks too slow for hurdles, he’s won 2 from 8.
Other formlines are being forgotten even if they are still standing up and there are some massive over reactions by the books on recent races. |
|
By:
That Ben finished so close in the King George should be a worry for Kaplana backers, after the runs of AOB’s in the Volt today.
|
|
By:
LOL
|
|
By:
Pierre ran well. At least he beat Moore. But, he's another US Army Ranger. A plodder!
I might give Minnie Hauk another chance in the Yorkshire Oaks tomorrow. The last time she was not ridden to achieve her best. She was a side dish - a facilitator for Ben - a slightly better plodder than Pierre. But, I bet AOB / Coolmore charges with big reservations. |
|
By:
I couldn’t be backing her and despite the short and sweet reaction I’ll stand by what I said.

had £75 ew at 22/1 2026-06-28 22 You must have place the bet some time ago? Didn’t think that AP was your thang? |
|
By:
That was on offer with Baldy
|
|
By:
Ive bet Maltese Cross..think arc trip will suit.
|
|
By:
Cross off Kalpana in your Arc considerations, she had a brutal race there.
 |
|
By:
But for Longchamp she'd be a serious player.
|
|
By:
a decent trial today aventure beating diamond necklace some form lines starting to stack up caulificar and sunley both finished around 4 and 5 lengths ahead of aventure ,sunly only had 7 races whereas caulificar has had 13 wernt a lot between the pair but sunley has more scope for improvement imo. lets hope they get there .
|
|
By:
You noticed that he’s still not yet been added Foyles?
There are now 73 instead of 72 but the only addition was Johanna Walsh who isn’t even FE!  |
|
By:
The one issue with her is the other potential runners from the same owner, but Balding was non committal about Kap on Saturday to Trapman, or with Item.
She’s also entered for the Royealleu so that would be another concern for backers but she’s gone out past 200 now. |
|
By:
There’s another formline from those mares but the horses run style means that a win would be very difficult, but it’s a nice EW price having been forgotten.

Look at this quote editing from the RP re: Diamond,
AOB (RP) “She ran well, but the winner was better than her today,” said O’Brien. “We were very happy with her going into the race and the ground was not a concern. “We'll take her home now and see how she comes out of the race.” Yes they go on to mention that she’s entered over all distances but it’s not what was said! Aidan O'Brien, coach of Diamond Necklace (2nd) «She ran well, but the winner was stronger than her today. Before the race, we were very happy with his form and the ground was not a concern... We will take it home and see how it recovers. It could be extended this fall to 2,400 meters.” Funny that how they manipulate the actual words said! |
