Paul Ferguson has one selection for us on Monday; Shifting Power in the Chantilly 13:50. Compare odds and bet.
Richard Hannon is taken to land the valuable Group 1 Prix Jean Prat at Chantilly on Monday, with 2,000 Guineas fourth Shifting Power (1:50).
The Free Handicap winner showed his ability to handle easy ground when chasing home Kingman in the Irish Guineas last time and the Compton Place colt, who seems to be improving with each run this season, is taken just given the vote.
There isn’t much between the selection and Charm Spirit on their Newmarket meeting and, on a collateral line through Kingman, Yuften shouldn’t be far away either. Both him and Muwaary are colts I have had onside so far this season, but more is needed from both this afternoon.
Monday’s selection:
1:50 Chantilly Shifting Power
