World famous horse race will start on next sunday. Like every year this race will attract attention to the whole world of horse racing.
Will local Sarafina win this race, Godolphin again or maybe last years winner Workforce?
Which horses are your favorites and will you bet? What are your picks for the Monstre-Race in Longchamp?
-
Don"t really keep up with geegee"s anymore. I did actually go to Longchamps for the race on my 30th birthday, which fell on the very same Sunday. It really was a terrific day out, great atmosphere etc. Didn"t win on the main race, but ended up......up for the day. :)
Perhaps You have prompted me to go and buy a racing post, for a quick glance??
Who is your pick BTW?
Oh and GL :)
-
Good luck too if you bet a horse.
I"m still waiting for an information about DANEDREAM. It"s the discovery of german racing. Bought for very cheap money and winner of some better races. Owner has to decide to designate her for 100K in the Arc.
I"ll wait for the racecard and I"m sure which horses will run.
If the german filly will start I"ll bet her. Weight, performance, all sounds good but it"s a tough race and we"ll see the best horses.
WORKFORCE will be def one of my picks again, brilliant horse.
-
already on Workforce, he needs a big field to settle to be seen at full effect.. ignore his build up runs in small fields imho...
gla whatever u pick.....
-
Wohoooo. It"s fact, german filly DANEDREAM will run. It"s a tough race but the odds will be nice. If your bookmaker offer good fixed odds it"s a risky but for good value e/w.
Good luck.

An excellent chance has german owned and trained in france by trainer C. Ferland DABIRSIM in Grand Criterium - Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere - Grade 1. With the jockeyship of Frankie Dettori and the 2y colt can conserve his performance it looks like a penalty ....but we know, the race always will be finished at line.

Is it like a Mission Impossible for WORKFORCE to win back to back the "Arc"?
The stats are against this result. It"s long ago that ALLEGED (1977/1978) was able to realize it. Excellent horses like Hurricane Run and Montjeu failed last years.
German filly DANEDREAM, bought for cheap 9.000 Euro, and winner of 500.000 Euro, has a new co-owner. Teruya Yoshida has bought a 50% share,price unknown. He is also well-knowned in horse racing. One of his horses is SAPHRESA.

depends if u want to take stats/trends literally or not, Hurricane Run won the Arc on good to soft in a 15 runner field the next year the going was good and a 8 runner field.. Montjeu won his Arc in heavy conditions and the next year it was good going...
-
That"s right noble1, agree. But however the circumstances were, Alleged was the last horse. Horse races are always a bit like poker. If you see Pocket Aces in the hole you"ll be optimistic to collect a lot of chips and win that single game. If you know that your horse will be the best in the field it depends what happend between start and finish line. Sometimes there is a Turf Bad Beat waiting. :)

Andre Fabre is an outstanding trainer and if he send a horse into such a race like the ARC we have to be observant.
Thanks for your kind words for "our" filly. e/w on her is a question of patriosm. ;)
Guess Workforce is still my bank for exacta and trifecta. Rest will be intuition and study of last performances.

Agree. If you study a bit then you cant ignore the colt. Nice odds. Also the pick of racing post expert. A bit doubt about the ground for WORKFORCE, but there is a bit watering to have fair conditions. WORKFORCE, DANEDREAM and HIRUNA D"AMOUR are def in all of my combined bets. Will make my bet when I see the horses in the paddock.
-
think workforce can go on any ground he won last years derby by 7 length on gd/fm
-
Hopefully Workforce will.;) At the moment the colt is sleeping in his box. Really a Pro. ;D
-
Oh Oh, pretty unlucky jockeyship from Olivier Peslier on Zantenda. Freddy Heads looks really disappointed.
-
What the hell for a ride. Frankieeeeeee. Im 10 years older now. :-))))))))))))))))))))
-
Wohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
-
What a wonderfull day for german horse racing. Danedream made it, unbelievabel. Dont wanna expect what tomorow will happen at cologne race course when there will a race day and they are back from Paris.
-
very big congratulations Cinc, the filly ran a cracker... i hope u had a fair few quid/euro on :) Andrasch Starke produced a great ride and had Danedream well placed throughout the whole race, messy race race behind, but that just highlights how well Danedream and Andrasch Starke did imho... again a very well done Cinc [my crossed fingers did the trick ;)]
i"ve soaked up quite a lot of bets on Sarafina, so a drink is in order tonight :)

The filly was an unremarkable horse as a yearling. Thats the reason why she was a cheap investment. Its great to see such opportunities because it should motivate a lot to invest in that sport with a hope of luck like Danedream"s owner did.
Trainer Peter Schiergen and jockyey Andrasch Starke deserved such a success. Both are formative sportsmen in german horse racing. NOw it"s a question to send her to the Breeders Cup. She runs a lot but if she is still in a good shape Im sure she will run in Kentucky.

Dabirsim also Frankie"s 500th career Group winner, fantastic achievement!
-

-
Goaaaaaaaaaallllllllllll ! ;D Easy money ! Has won last race Maisson Laffite. Wohooo!
-
Have to try it again. Berlin Hoppegarten Grade 3, Zazou is my bet.
-
Nice result. I meant to follow you, but unfortunately got very busy and failed to place a bet. :(
But Big congrats, and to noble, take it you won by virtue of taking bets on A N other etc?
-
Sarafina was my lay bet for a few pennies ;D
http://www.g1stallionmatch.com/g1stallionmatch/pages/StallionMatch.aspx?for=G1StallionMatch+-+coolmoreIRE.htm&internal=1
to breed from etc for 9000 euro cinc... bargain :)
hint - try rip van winkle and danedream as the mare :) [press start search]
-
Heard some noises that DANEDREAM got a call for the Breeders Cup. Option too is the Japan Cup. Would be grreat to have another daydream next month in Louisville. ;D

Nice one, wasn"t Noble mentioning Secretariat on here recently, winner of Triple Crown. To be anywhere near that kind of class is admirable indeed!

Just seen the replay of the Arc on bbc website - STUNNING PERFORMANCE by the german filly

Arc winners have a terrible record at the breeders cup and she would have to be a LAY at the likely short odds
-
DANEDREAM def not running at Breeders Cup next month. Still there are thoughts that she could run in the Japan Cup. Huge price money and bonus would be an amount of over 3 Million Euros. Filly and mare made no sense, pricemoney less than Japan and BC Turf she has also colts in the field.
Think it"s the better alternate. So weve to wait for trainer/owners decision.
