I won’t waste time telling you how worthy a favourite Enable is for this year’s Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, as she has the best form in the race and fits the perfect profile for a potential Arc winner. She isn’t the only three-year-old filly to have easily beaten her…

1pt win Olmedo @5/1, 13:45 Chantilly, Sunday
Race two on Arc day and the two-year-old colts tackle a mile in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere – except Aidan O’Brien has declared his Group One winning filly Magical. She has a big chance and it’s probably worth waiting to see how the horse she narrowly beat last time out…
1pt win Narella @12/1, 13:10 Chantilly, Sunday
The opening Prix Marcel Boussac on Chantilly’s Arc card looks good for a bet, with the market leaning heavily towards the chances from the bigger yards. It’s clear to see that Aidan O’Brien’s Magical has a huge chance after she all but won a Group One on her previous start,…
2pts win Battaash @7/2, 1pt win Profitable @16/1, 16:35 Chantilly, Sunday
I’m very keen on BATTAASH‘s chances in Sunday’s Prix de Abbaye at its temporary home of Chantilly. Last year’s winner Marsha – who has since won the Group One Nunthorpe Stakes this season when beating the selection – is back for another go but will encounter ground far softer than 12…
1pt win Sioux Nation @6/1, 14:55 Newmarket, Saturday

He’s sired by Scatt Daddy, whose progeny generally go on softer ground so I’m not sure that’s a realistic negative as some pundits suggest, and those…
