A brilliant weekend of racing culminating in the Arc card at Longchamp on Sunday, where ADAYAR should land the big prize at 3.05 for the boys in blue.

Ever since his running on second in the Sandown Park Classic Trail in April — behind another of today’s runners Alenquer — this giant son of Frankel has done nothing but improve. 

He still looked very green when a running on second in the Lingfield Derby Trial behind Third Realm, but comprehensively reversed that form with a brilliant success in the Epsom Derby in the first week of June.
