I don’t have a strong view on the Arc tomorrow. Serafina was my original idea of the winner and I will stick with her despite an unfavourable draw. Nakayama Festa is a big price and could run well.
In the Prix L’Abbaye Prohibit looks the one to beat while in the opener Gentoo is a tentative selection although he is best with give in the ground.
Back at home at Kelso Aikman will have his favoured ground in the 3.55. The long term plan is to send him novice chasing but he is up to winning over hurdles in the meantime. Arctic Court looks the main threat.
Lexi’s Boy is an interesting newcomer in the 2.40. He was a winner 4 times on the flat for Kevin Ryan.
At Tipperary the main interest is the chase debut of the Cheltenham Festival winner First Lieutenant in the 5.15.
