Having a outsider bet on Buzzword @ 66/1 E/W a Group 3 winner and placed in Group 1,2 and 3s supplemented because it stayed on well in the French 2,000 Guineas and they want to try further, also stayed on well in the Breeders Cup juvenile race last year.
On breeding, Buzzword should stay the trip well enough but will be vulnerable to anything with an 'X-Factor'.
Outside bet on Pachattack in the 2.40 at Epsom. Bin Suroor says Antara will come on for the run, she's has 290 odd days since her last race. Reggane's trainer unsure if she will handle the course. Butler expects a big, big run from Pachattack so that is where the value may lie with question marks about a lot of the field.
Its pretty open really Jan Vermeer is the stand out on the figures just wish I backed it for this when I backed it last time out think it was 25/1 at the time.
I like having two in big races a strong fancy and an outsider, Buzzword just looks to big of a price at 66 forget about its 2,000 Guineas race here as it was its first run, looking at all its other races its been up close to alot of decent types, if it gets the trip its got place claims.

The interesting one is one I've put up already who ran well behind Askanna who showed her stamina after the last to win.
Shame that the winners were short and Recession Proof was woeful as were Jaconet and Crimea whilst Rapid Artist had a mass change of tactics and was held up today.
Yeah I really like Royal Bench at a massive price tomorrow - put him up as a possible Guineas horse but he was pulled out on the day, think he's been saved for this and will be better on the better ground, he hosed up by 8 on his 3yo debut in a 1m conditions race in a good time, it was a good race time-wise when compared to the fillies equivalent in which Irish 1000 Guineas runner-up Anna Salai finished second in. He's a best priced 50/1 with Stan James.
The other horse I like in this is the Czech radier Shamalgan who disappointed in a couple of trials for the Guineas earlier in the year before finishing a staying on third having been held up out the back in the French Guineas itself. 40/1 looks a fair price about him though he'll need luck in running if they're to hold him up like they did in the Guineas.
