The Arc

It's a long way off and a bit of risk involved punting ante post.
But Paddy Power are 11/2 Golden Horn,when they pull out Jack Hobbs,which is highly likely according to someone at yard.GH has Treve to beat,fantastic horse that Treve is,she is prone to niggles.i think Golden Horn will improve from The Derby,which is looking like top form this year.When Jack Hobbs won in Ireland I loaded up on GH at 6/1.
If JH doesn't run,he will be around 5/2

@Bob...Where's the thumbs up emitcon when it is needed ??

For me, what made it a really great race, the race looked like a match race. What an impressive winner.

Ran as if the 10f was too short, very impressive at the end of the race, and remember it`s only 2 months into the UK season so yes WFA is a big thing

Think the weight difference did tell at the end, but The Grey Gadsby is no slouch and would have beaten most horses even on those terms . Golden Horn is exceptional and appears to have that will to win that backs up his talent. He may be Frankel type special.

A mile and 2 furlongs at Sandown is like a 1mile 3 furlongs with its stiff uphill finish.
If that was run over a mile and half on flatish track,he would have pulled away even more from the runner up.
