1m Prix du Moulin de Longchamp (Group 1) (3yo+) (Grande Course) (Turf) (3yo+) 1/4 1-2
HENRY LONGFELLOW relished cut in the ground when winning a Group One as a juvenile, and his form this season entitles him to be a shorter price than he is. He beat Metropolitan the same distance an eased down Charyn did, and had Notable Speech well behind at Ascot. There are reasons to believe the Goodwood defeat by Notable Speech didn’t show him in his best light as it’s a quirky track and he got caught in a bit of a pace dual for the early lead, setting up a tame finish. 11/2 is a few points bigger than I would lay him.
1pt win Henry Longfellow @11/2, 14:50 Longchamp, Sunday
