The Gosdens’ FIELD OF GOLD was the one to beat within the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere as he was glorious when third on debut at Doncaster in what was a incredible race towards rivals who principally had a run on him. He’s received twice since however took a step ahead within the Solario Stakes at Sandown final time. He was glorious then, seemed very easy and sport and took the step up in grade in his stride. I charge the one he beat, Matauri Bay, too. I couldn’t have Ballydoyle’s Henri Matisse on this contest.
The draw will play a large half within the Prix de l’Abbaye and field 5 will go well with BELIEVING, who has been glorious and ultra-consistent this yr. She ran nicely within the Kings Stand Stakes and the Diamond Jubilee at Royal Ascot. She then received a Group 2 contest on the Curragh and second twice behind Bradsell, as soon as at York and as soon as on the Curragh. I used to be there that day and he or she was one of many few who acquired aggressive from a low draw as she was in stall one. She might have received if drawn excessive. She’s in all probability top-of-the-line and most constant sprinters within the UK or Eire.
One of many characteristic races of the season is the Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe and SOSIE has been very aggressive on the prime of the desk all yr. He ran a cracker when third within the Prix de Jockey Membership when drawn out large that day. He needed to wait on a spot, however ultimately, he barged via some runners however by no means acquired to the winner. The step-up in journey suited when he received the Grand Prix de Paris on his subsequent begin, beating Illinois, and seemed excellent then. He took a typical mid-summer break and returned for the Prix Niel, the place he beat Delius and Look De Vega, who opposed once more. Stall 5 is the proper draw as Maxime Guyon can bounce out and observe the tempo after which angle out for his run up the straight.
The Prix de l’Opera Longines sees the Irish 1,000 Guineas winner, FALLEN ANGEL, return after a cracking run final time behind Porta Fortuna at Leopardstown after an enforced absence. The race time means that James Doyle acquired the fractions virtually good on Fallen Angel and he or she simply lacked the pace to kick on once more two furlongs out. Connections mentioned she must step up in journey and that run suggests it too. I believe she is going to keep this 10 journey as her dam was by Lawman and acquired greater than 1m. Fallen Angel seems to be the one to beat in what doesn’t appear to be a massively deep subject.
I can see the case for Kinross. He’ll in all probability be the NAP for many individuals on the Prix de la Foret. Nevertheless, although he was glorious, I believed he may be previous his greatest, so I’d prefer to see him recreate the run LTO earlier than I again him once more. As a substitute, I’ll aspect with POET MASTER at an each-way value. His CV isn’t as adorned as some right here, however he’s fairly constant and can get pleasure from any ease within the floor we get. He was notably sturdy out there final time when carrying a penalty. That has caught with me, and I’m prepared to offer him an opportunity at a hefty value to show that he may be aggressive at this degree. I’m certain he’ll run into the locations.
