SPEAKING of the Arc, strange that bookmakers took the opportunity to shorten Enable’s odds further for the race after she won the Yorkshire Oaks on Thursday.

She was impressive of course, Frankie Dettori kicked her in the belly at flagfall, and she never saw a rival. However, she achieved no more than we knew she was well capable of achieving in beating her stable companion Coronet by five lengths, with Queen’s Trust and Nezwaah and Alluringly behind.
