Prix de lArc De Triomphe
I’ve been looking at this race all week and although I’ll be cheering Treve home having tipped her up for 3 points win last year at 10/1, I think Tapestry is the forgotten horse here. She has run only once this season and if she has the normal ballydoyle improvement after that run she will be right in the firing line here is what looks a very good Arc but not one with huge depth after the top 3. She has a decent draw compared to others a lot shorter in the betting and let’s not forget at her best last year she beat Tagrooda who was 3rd last year. Tapestry’s form did die off at the end of the year but if she has had this race in mind 33/1 looks huge.
1 Point EW 33/1 EW Generally
Never really looked like having a chance

It’s pretty clear that almost anything can happen in this race, and as much as I’ll be shouting Sole Power on there is far too much luck involved to be taking a short price about anything here. What looks the most overpriced horse here is Rangali. He was 2nd in this last year on similar ground and although he hasn’t been firing this year he may well have this as his target for the year and at 28/1 he looks value. I’ve been hoping someone would go 28/1 and 4 places and Bet365 have just done that. I’d be taking 25/1 as well 4 places.
1 Point EW 28/1 4 Places Bet365
Just got collared on the line for a great run again in this race. Super price but so close yet again to a big win.
Prix de la Foret
G Force was a bit of an eye catcher in the Sprint Cup coming from way of the pace to finish 4th and he looks well overprice here. There is a huge possibility that Limato is just a fair way clear but it’s hard to be interested in that price. 16/1 is a nice price but perhaps it would be better to steer clear of Limato and go for 9/1 in the race without. I would have him with a very solid chance in that race and 9/1 with ladborkes or 8/1 with Bet365 is well worth a bet
1 Point win G Force w/o Limato Ladbrokes 9/1
He got a silly ride along with Limato where both horses were miles to far back early on. G Force never looked like getting into it but in fairness to Limato he remarkably got up to 2nd from there.

I made the mistake of changing my mind and not picking one yesterday that cost me (less said about that the better), so I’m going to have small bet here on Mirza at a huge price. He ran well in this last year without getting any breaks and doesn’t need to have much of a case made to justify a small bet at 50/1. He is capable on his day of getting involved here and id be throwing something trough the TV if he won and id changed my mind and didn’t put up a min bet.
½ Point win 50/1 Generally.
Mirza ran really well at a huge price to be ring in there near the places
