A late post today.  Couple of quiet days, and so far today I have not had a bet.  I may back Lyricist Voice 6.40 Kempton, he looks as though he can step forward from his good second about 6 weeks ago, he ran at the track on his last run, so that experience  is a positive,  his negative is stall 11, so I may just wait and maybe have a bet in running, as long as he gets a decent start.  Total Commitment 7.40 could well appreciate a return to the track, he is a course and distance winner, well drawn today, he is a bit of value at around 11/2.

Looking ahead to the weekend, all the headlines have  been about Enable, and can she win a third Prix D’de l’Arc De Triomphe on Sunday.  She must have a favourites chance, of main rivals, Japan has strong form, he is still improving and has won over the track, but he will need to step up again to win.  Ghaiyyath has to be considered as a live danger as well, he won his latest group 1 race by over 14 lengths.  The strength of the opposition was possibly nothing like Enable has faced this season, but the time was decent, and he won by a wide margin, so he could not do much more than he did.  The French have Waldgeist and Sottsass, both useful horses, of the two most fancied French,  Sottsass would be the one of them, I think has the edge, he could have more improvement left in him, he was very impressive when winning the French Derby, and should handle the likely soft ground ok.

More tomorrow.
