I’ve added the ones I could remember but the question marks are because they may have changed final selections, happy to add Foyles and Brandy treble as at least they’ve joined in.

Respect, good luck let’s hope that it’s a humdinger!

Temperatures to reach 25° in Paris today.

Should be on the fast side of good. Fresh strip of ground as usual on the rail.

Good luck all. The best day of racing in the calender year.
Enjoy

A fair drift on my selection, now 15/8 in places and very weak. Same thing yesterday before hardening again but the money seems to be for Kalpana more than any other, btw 365 going evs from 8/13 for her to finish in the top 5 if anyone fancies that.

The Gosden runner could frighten you cag.

Any one of half a dozen could Quixall but not her , she is only there as she got a free entry.

That said , the last time I wrote one off , Danedream !!

Good luck all. The best day of racing in the calender year.
Enjoy

Ditto

Shall we add the Gosden runner to the list Ace?

maltese / diamond

Sorry, I messed up.

No need to apologise you’re on the, the next re poster if there is one can remove the question marks but all is above board, enjoy the day.

Only 0.1mm of rain after racing. The weather is 25C and sunny. The ground will be Good, Good to Firm, as expected by most. There's also a cutaway early in the home straight. I just hope Maltese Cross and Diamond Necklace will take advantage of it with aplomb.

Maltese and Diamond to fight out the finish (?).

Graffard looked very nervous with Trapman just now, surprised that his shades never fell apart such was his fiddling with them!

He’s echoed what I said and tried to show with the photos posted. That if you fancy Maltese Cross then you have to like Varandir… possibly others from early season form.

Daryz, best horse in the race.With a clear run will should get a 2ND Arc.

diarrhoea?

Not what France Galop say, they are saying the same as Yesterday (Bon Souple ) Good-Soft.

  May get some idea from the times of the first couple of races.

another 1 broken down

Bon Souple is good ground, Glasgow.

Not nice to see another breaking down

In French horse racing and turf terminology, "bon souple" describes turf or ground conditions that are "good to soft".
• Bon: Means "good".
• Souple: Means "soft", "supple", or "flexible" (in racing, it refers to turf with some give or moisture).

I know the translation.

But their good to soft equates to what we call good ground over here and in Ireland.

First race Slow 1.82 Seconds.

if ewe pick the winner you will receive felátio from irons.

Thundering On should be fav , with all the allowances, she's certainly the one to beat.Just enough juice there, I'd say; I reckon she's a cracking value.

there might be multi winners irons will have jawache

Maltese CROSS!!!

Saddadd 50/1 and 7/1 top 4 could run into a place over the trip.

Thundering On

Fav is a Cert ffs.

Good luck everyone! May the best horse win.

Aye good luck lads.....Well except you know who.

'acey', I like your confidence. No team tactic please, AOB / Coolmore. Unsporting behaviour has no place in sport.

Brilliant winner

Well done backers

well done daryz backers

Like a hot knife through butter!!!

good win but they won't take on calandagan

Fav is a Cert ffs........Acey still the best.

Well done winners mine were duff and the one that gave up placed!

No doubt the 3 yr old fillies were better, if only BEHRANA was there, not that they’re bothered.

wd winners, ground too fast for some yet Bay City Roller a known soft ground horse
ran a screamer so no excuses, winner too good

Incredible horse. Monster. 10/1 after the Prix Ganay.

28 Pages for a race that could have been summed up in a sentence. Overkill doesn't come close.

'acey', you're right! Diamond ran a cracker, just the draw too insurmountable to overcome.

who won?

Fav

Stall 15 and stall 16 in 2nd and 3rd.

Pomp, Pen, Acey line up for your prize! Irons get on your knees and take the teeth out!

Orthadox Got Nay Fakin Chance...

Lay for plenty

did you recoup your losses?

Sling DD you depressive doughnut

*it

Swings And Roondaboots Pal.

I posed the question about the 3 year old colts and you certainly never stuck your neck out you pleb

Biased of course but why did Colin Keane give up his early position? Kalpana was still gaining at the line but far too much to do. Should have been at least fourth.

Did she like Longchamp last year? Better horse this year they all said

tis when ewe dont bet.

Kalpana had every chance. Didn't stay/want good enough.
No excuses.

Bay City Roller, Diamond Necklace and Friendly Soul all ran crackers

Grumpy?

Get him a rope and a chair ffs

*wasn't

I’m in no doubt BEHRANA woulda placed. The trouble with backing two from one stable.

*at least

Rate reply.....Spot on Horses For Courses innit.

Sunly might have been beaten yesterday but deserved to run there.

Guess next year as a 5 year old like Kap, funny how Graff kept the fairer sex away from Daryz!

Where did Kalpana finish? Did Denise (5-places) win (again)?

Thanks to all who got involved let’s hope we can have some more threads where people can give their views without all the negativity and rucks.

Yeah Ace, for me Sunly deserved to be there, next year I guess as a five year old like Kap this year.

Funny how Graff kept the two from the fairer sex away from the race!

Yes Acey, but don’t forget Sunly deserved to be there, despite the defeat yesterday.

And the other stablemate who on form woulda been thereabouts retired injured!

They knew the fillies and mares were better than the 3 yr old colts, I’m sure

Will he be packed off to stud now?

They said just as much yes

But also sting they’d love to try for 3, their mo with retiring the fillies was that they are too valuable, their careers were cut short so he’s got to be worth far too much to race again?

Where can you see the Betfair SP on the Arc?

Kalpana not good enough to beat Daryz but when you jump and get the rail after a furlong on a real stayer (which she is) why drop back and allow Daryz first run. She did scrape 5th which is a bit better than last year.

They said she was better being beat by Gia in the Hardwick said different, Calandagan not as good.

kalpana 5th

Two winners for the Thoroughbred Cooperation.

Good to see the colours again after the death of Ahmed Salman.

Soumi I’ll miss, glad he’s had winners, just watching back, Daryz followed him on Diamond all the way. Wasn’t worried being 3 wide as he followed who he wanted.

Well done to G Scott too, top bloke, no bluff, just confirmed Bay City for the Champion Stakes, if all is well

Had a little bet on Diamond Necklace at 20s for the fillies race at Ascot.
Hope they dont go to America instead.

How far is it in the states? 1m 2 or 3?

Big dodgy as Precise has thrown her hat in for also now

Im hoping after that run from Precise she goes to the States and Diamond Necklace goes to Ascot.

1m 2f this year in the States

You should be good, won’t want too soft.

Maltese and Varindar had a head between, form looking legit

Some run from BCR and DN but struggle to have them on ablity alone and more the draw forced thar hands and actually suited them and perhaps ground was better off rail.
Daryz just gets the trip perfectly and quickens effortlessly, has a class  temperament.
Wasn't too messy a race.
Fav really dug me out as had laid second, every days a learning day.
Kalpana as mentioned gave up a nice slot, pretty tame tbh and I suspected  hard against the rail wasn't the best ground  but they must of walked track.
From that draw should been able to sit closer and just off rail but prob wasn't/isn't quite top drawer.

Caps off to Daryz.

Think he outstayed them BnB both hadn’t much form over the distance, Barza gave him 3 sharp cracks to get DN once in control he eased.
Had the perfect toe and as you say might have been on the best land.

Glad Bay Cuty showed up well and that Epsom wasn’t a fluke.

Rishi on ITV reckoned the status of Daryz could be elevated to that of Dancing Brave. Really? Dancing Brave beat Bering, the unbeaten champion of France, Triptych, Shahrastani and Shardari. This renewal is pretty mediocre despite winning it in consecutive years.

Shame there was no interview of Princess Zahra post her horse's triumph on ITV.

Not bad for a mediocre race, had about 10 GP1 Wnrs in it.

you are right penzance . think maybe even 11 or 12 . i was there in 1986 and it was thrilling , but take nothing away from today's 2 time winner . i backed the stable companion that was given a shocking ride but the winner's turn of foot was a joy to watch  . the arc is still the benchmark  middle distance race in europe by some way , and how nice to see it run on decent ground .

I agree.
Great race, and a fab winner.

Impossible123 is a known negative Nancy

was a good race and meeting you have to play with the cards you are dealt.no complaints here.

Just 7 lengths split all runners 1-16 at the line…..They dawdled.
However, the best horse won.

have to agree with imp,  the top 6 in the 86 field was far superior to yesterdays field bar the winner
