This is a tough sprint, but Town And Country could be the one which will enjoy conditions most. She ran really well in a Listed which most runners in that have run respectably races since. There will be a strong head-wind at Sandown which in combiantion with the stiff finish should cause a pace collapse. Town And Country should be able to pick pieces up late.

The pace seems to be at the far side here, which should be the side which will dominate the race. Pelean was quite underwhelming in her first three starts, but the change of distance and tactics sparked something. The runner-up has won a handicap since, so a mark of 78 doesn't seem bad at all. This is a huge step-up in class, but as a return she only carries 8-3.

Midak is a French contender which we don't see often, but the last two we've seen both won the Prix Greffulhe before going to Epsom. This horse has done nothing wrong in France, but it will likely be tough to dominate a group of 19 runners from the front. I'm wondering if Barzalona will try to make it a real test of stamina from the front, like Serpentine did, or he could maybe drop the horse back a little. It's going to be a cracking race.

I usually don't take multiple runners in the same race, but I can't see anything else winning other than these two. Fair Wind had a nice campaign last season until he refused to race all of a sudden. He has since finished last on his reappearance, but there were excuses for that. He still looks well handicapped to me, but he'll need to prove he's still capable of performing at this level.

Jer Batt will be primed up for this race, looking at the jockey booking. The Barron team don't really book top jockeys, so they must think this has a huge chance. I can understand their thoughts, as there seems to be some headwind at Epsom, and an extreme pace can only be favorable for horses which come from the rear like this one. Both runs this season were very respectable, even on ground which is a little too fast for him.

Sturlasson has shown nothing since his very unlucky second at Epsom exactly 1 year ago. He's on a mark of 79 now and will have lots going for him. He's won at Navan before, the going will be perfect, and the tailwind can only be in favor of a strong frontrunner like himself. Revival is very possible.

-50
One of the two favourites will likely win this contest, but I find it too difficult to choose one of them. So I'll be having an each-way go at a big prize. Tyrrhenian Sea ran much better than the result at Ascot, as his jockey put him in no man's land between the clear leader and the rest of the pack. They went too fast, and the ground wasn't to his liking either. This horse has his best form on the all-weather, but he hasn't gotten a fair chance on turf in quite some time, which he should be getting here.

@12.00

-50
I can't say I'm as confident with my pick in the Oaks, as Ryan Moore has opted for Minnie Hauk. I usually don't take second strings, as I'm basically saying that the jockey has made a mistake, even though he sees these horses every other day. Giselle is a horse I started following from her debut on. There was always so much hype around this runner, which disappeared after she was third in her final start as a 2-year-old. I always thought that a horse with her size would be better the older she gets, and she showed this improvement at Lingfield. She didn't beat anyone that day, but the trainer has mentioned multiple times that Giselle was far from her best in the trial. She's a tricky customer and will probably need a decent pace to aim at while the track is likely going to be a negative for such a big horse like herself. If they go to the front with her, I will be very disappointed, as this runner deserves her fair chance at winning this, which I'm sure she's capable of.

Calandagan is still searching for his first Group 1 success, which is surprising. His reappearance run was very good, as he was beaten by a strong Japanese horse, which was probably fitter than him on the day. He'll come on from that, but I'd like to think a similar performance will be enough to land this pot. He'll have to handle the track.

-500
An interesting renewal of the Prix du Jockey Club, with the favorite being a horse I love to oppose here. Many horses which finished fast in the Poule d'Essai des Poulains are trying their luck at a race over 2 furlongs further, but they went at such a ridiculous pace that day. This just puts me off most of them, although I think Barzalona is probably riding the best of the ones which are re-opposing each other. I'll talk a bit more about my pick here, a huge outsider named Tipinso. A quick look at his form makes you just want to write him off immediately, but a horse with these connections should never be written off too quickly. Tipinso has gone off favorite on almost all his starts, but has never confirmed he was capable of being a true contender at the next level. Until his last start at Toulouse. He would have won that race with ease if he didn't get hampered multiple times. This son of Pinatubo surely has to be improving as a 3-year-old, and I can only see him improve. This is a tough ask, but at these odds, I'll take a shot with him.

Goodwood is by far my worst track, but this horse seems to have a lot going for him, so I'll give the track another shot. There seems to be a lot of headwind for races on the straight course today, and an extreme pace is forecasted. Both of these are in favor of horses which come from the rear, and Moulin Booj usually makes his run late on. His latest run at Musselburgh was promising, and he should go well up 2lb. Stall 13 is good on paper, but it could give him a tough run and he could end up an unlucky loser.
