Is Snowfall your idea of the Arc winner?

Peter Donohoe, BoyleSports She deserves to be favourite on her form this year, but I personally would not want the current 9-4. I'd rather side with Tarnawa, who we know will handle whatever ground it may be and is two from two at Longhchamp.

David Egan, jockey Snowfall has a similar profile to Enable when she was going for her first Arc. She ticks all the right boxes, getting both the sex and age allowances, but I think she'll need to step up taking on the colts.

Gary Halpin, jockey I think she will prove a tough nut to crack getting the fillies' allowance. She was faultless at York and it would be hard to side against her.
