    Really disappointed whirl didnt arrive given the ground would have been right in her favor, but she did run terribly the other week!

    That being said, the arc has a history of horses running well in it multiple times

    Aventures run last year would win this
    Sosies would get him placed
    Ive put myself off los angeles

    Ill add alohi alii in albeit hes been fairly well supporter so it may be a late play

    Aventure 6/1 e/w
    Sosie 12/1 e/w
    Alohi alii e/w (hoping for 14s)

    Think its a cracking race imo and a good betting heat, case could be made for most all the way tk hotazhell

    No Mike, he just had to move the horse out significiantly earlier, it was nothing to do with the draw, he had lead artist well covered, wasnt boxed in and chose to sit and suffer

    Guaranteed he wont be on it NTO for the above reason

    As ive said all season,

    Best horse in training this year is Whirl,

    Will win this doing handstands again and will win the arc

    My season has revolved mainly around her, piling on to her for this @5/6 and anything evs or better ill be steaming into, wont even bother saving on the 2nd fav

    Been hammering her for the arc at all sorts of prices since june, will be 2/1 fav by tomorrow and miss minnie will be off to ascot

    I agree Glad, shocker of a race, division is much like the sprinting division, particularly the colts, group 1 by name

    That is astounding that seamie let him up that rail, likely would have got around fine anyway, but wow that is horrendous from seamie to no close that rail off

    Agree wilts Im surprised he’s the price he is, if hes ridden exactly the same way in this absolutely dreadful race, he has to have a really good chance of getting into the frame, 20/1 hes way over priced. Will have a small e/w play

    Poor race the fav should win but 7f now? He looked to me like he needed 1m+ not less, will also have a few £ on exactly @14/1 e/w as i think the drop back will really suit her

    Nonsense the interview about NS needing to be ridden like that, absolute nonsense, buick is a fantastic jockey, one of the best, but that was just a poor ride against a very, very mediocre set of milers

    Disappointed with rayevka there,

    Got a small part back, but aside from that my point stood, insanity backing that in from
    Evs into 1/2, who in there right mind is backing the current sprinters into that kind of price

    Wish i still had my bf account :-(

    Given how inconsistent the top sprinters are, you have to take the fav on, albeit, hes the best this season so far, no doubt about it, will have a decent stake spread over

    Woodshauna e/w @11/1
    Inisherin e/w @14/1
    Rayveka e/w @11/1

    Very unusual for me to do this in a race but i think theres an angle in, the fav is incredibly short, 2/1 seems fair, 4/7 is insanity

    Why wont they run the two fillies mike? They have often ran multiple first strings in the arc? 2016 they had a 1/2/3…. That performance on “soft” puts her to the front of the order imo

    Not forgetting the fact that aiden knows. She should have won the oaks… if anyone stays local, ittl be MH imo as they know shes not quite as good

    So disappointing she was ridden to lose in the oaks, she’ll reverse that fairly easily with MH,as i said above, shoe in for the arc, wont be beaten wherever she ends up, ive had a great flat season mainly due to her, 6/4 today was way off to me anyway

    Whirl wont be beaten, wont care which way the ground goes, best 3yo filly this season imo, expect her to win this and win the arc
