    Only thing that gets Kinross beat here is the draw

    Frankie will be hoping he doesn’t get blocked in on the rail like Polydream did a few years ago from a similar draw

    In what seems to be Frankie’s Longchamp Farewell Winner Stakes, I’ll go with Cachet EW on the PMU and Breizh Sky 20s EW.

    Thanks, Jac. Good luck with you forecast. Right now Kinross is only 2/5 with the PMU, while Cachet trades at around 30/1.

    They would have 5 years ago

    Not sure about now

    Kinross would very likely have won given the ground he made up after the first past the post cut across in front of him

    I very much doubt it. SSR obviously want the places changed so they can continue the Dettori love in but it would be a travesty if the winner is thrown out.

    Pretty unsportsmanlike conduct from Guyon. Almost stuck his finger in his a***.
    Looks extremely bad on such a big stage.

    Shouldn’t get chucked after seeing the overhead shot

    Guyon had to go right to get round pogo which is why he needed the whip in his left hand

    Could’ve straightened up after going past but he didn’t really impede kinross that much

    Looked worse live

    He cut across and shut the door on both of the 2nd and 3rd placed horses.
    Won’t be changed as you don’t disqualify the Wertheimer Bros. in France.

    Doesn’t look bad enough to switch places and French Stewarding has come much more towards our rules recently (I doubt the result would be changed over here) but who knows and Guyon didn’t help himself by not switching his whip. Kinross was flat out from a long way out and just didn’t have the tactical speed on that quicker ground.

    Winner has pulled very hard and must be given extra credit to win and I assume that the ground has played a big part in today’s improvement as two of her three wins have come on French good ground.

    The SSR pudits are really talking up Dettori into getting this result and intimating that Guyon rode deliberately to impeed Dettori…..no bias there at all.
