    Camille Pissarro 7/1
    I think Moore will ride and the price shorten. I’d be happy to go in again if Moore opts for the other and Camille Pissarro odds lengthen
    Delacroix will be on a retrieval mission whilst Camille has more momentum on his side
    Sosie for me is a 12f horse albeit you cannot write him off
    Ombudsman looked extremely good last time and is obviously very good but he did have everything drop his way the race turned out and also looks a big difference the weight for age this time of year
    Anmaat looks a big price at 16’s if the going isn’t too fast

    Looks like a cracking race. Ombudsman looks a bit special, and it will be no surprise if he dots up.

    But at the prices I’m tempted by Delacroix. Didn’t show at all in the Derby after the early shemozzle, but ticks boxes on age, jockey, trainer… 5/1 or 6/1 looks a fair bet.

    A bit wary of who is O’Brien’s ‘one for today’ but Camille Pissarro seems overpriced at 15/2. Ran into traffic problems in the Prix Du Jockey Club yet still managed to win, so goes into this contest with a Group 1 win at around this distance.

    I’ve had a bit more on Camille Pissarro.. 11’s seems big although you have to respect the quality of the field

    I was planning on betting CP, but the fact ryans ditched him in favour of the horse i like the least in the field i cant back him

    Dont like ruling court, has early season 3yo written all over him

    Ground for sosie is a big issue imo

    Why is hotazhell 28/1? As a 2yo definitely preferred dig, but that was a mighty run FTO this season having missed his prep, form is solid, been much worse 28/1 stabs, will have a play e/w @28/1

    With a nassive bet on the fav, had no interest at evs, but how on earth is he 6/4? The race at ascot was indeed messy with a frightening gallop, so it did suit the closers, wont get that today and it is a slight worry where the pace will come from, usually the WFA would put me off, but hes miles clear here, miles

    I would like Sosie to be very handy, and if necessary make the running, if no-one else wants to go a gallop. A sprint finish tactical race is unlikely to suit.

    I had some matched on Ombudsman ante-post and have now had a couple of savers on Ruling Court and delacroix.

    If betting from scratch right now it would be Delacroix with a saver on Ruling Court. With no bet on the fav.

    What a mess of a race and Ryan Moore played it best he let them play it out. The only jockey who was where he wanted to be was Maxime Guyon.

    Very messily run race – Ombudsman pulled far too hard early on but winner has done really well especially considering how his own stable mate kept him in up the straight.

    Think he is well worth another try at 12F as he needed all of that 10F and Sandown’s hill to get up to win it.

    Would have to say Delacroix was a good winner of that he swallowed up the ground.
