this is a real tricky one. Has APOB improved USR enough to reverse form with Tariq in Ascot. the ground will probably have a bit more cut, so he may well do, as long as he has taken last weeks race in his stride. Welsh Emperor was 2nd here last year (albeit a weaker race!) but he wouldnt be the worst each way bet if its soft. THe big problem i have with french racing is that it can be tricky to actually know what the ground is like. their "soft" is very different to out "soft"

Quote:
Although Tariq's good form has come on a fast surface, he is by Kyllachy, who went on soft and if you cast your mind back to his debut, Tariq was a very impressive winner of a Newmarket maiden and the ground was very soft that day. I don't think it will be proper French 'soft', if that makes sense. If the same racing surface was over here i think they would be calling it good to soft, soft in places.

Disappointed with Tariq, but that race was very tricky. I forgot all about it so i only saw the result. What is the ground looking like?

I just went to look and my heart sank to see him listed as an "also ran".
I didn't expect he'd win but yeah... today is not a good day.
