The meeting today at Vichy in France has some nice horses running.  At 1.58 Soft Light looks like he is the real class act of the field.  Obviously it is his first run of the year, so he will improve.  However he showed much more than his rivals last year, and I would be disappointed if he was to get beat.  He is around 10/11- which is short for his first run of the year, but the stable runners are going well enough, so he should be more than good enough, it is a major drop in class from a last run in a Group 1.

More later.
