    The best 20/1 shot of the flat season . 100% to improve and a proper group 1 horse trained to the minute for this race, by a trainer who knows what’s required .

    Was actually looking at the race earlier. Would agree he seems a likely contender to shorten. 6/1 is a bit of a stretch though considering that their number 1 is likely Kew Gardens. Maybe like 12-14/1 I was thinking if all the ones ahead of him line up.

    I have my doubts he will stay 2 and a half miles myself but best of luck with it.

    Aidan I think your great and I am not trying to be poxy, but I think Capri is phucked. He doesn't fit the profile of a Coolmore improver at all. On the contrary he has ran like a pig the last few runs, hasn't won a G1 in nearly 2 years. He will turn out to be simply regressive, he reminds me of Treasure Beach from a few years ago. When they go wrong they go wrong. I reckon only about 1 in 10 can come back from injuries/niggles successfully, they are not machines.

    Apart from that good luck with it.:)

    Could be but we’re getting value to find out . His 5th in the arc last year after an interupped prep would be close to enough in this , if he stays . His prep this year seems to have been setup for this target .

    Hoping I can fly will step up to 10f here but the 1 mile race look easier .

    Kew Gardens not more likely for the Hardwicke? They don't usually use the Coronation Cup as a route to Ascot GC

    Thoughts on Zhui Feng at 33/1 for the Hunt Cup?

    Hope he’s that on the day 6 places

    He will have a G1 penalty in the Hardwicke?

    No penalties in the Hardwicke. Hadn't seen that ATR update and it also seems AOB said in May that Southern France could be the Hardwicke horse
