GOOD THING

Thunder Snow (3.15 Deauville)

France has been a happy hunting ground for Thunder Snow, as it is where he has won both of his Group 1s, the Criterium International at Saint-Cloud as a two-year-old and the Prix Jean Prat at Chantilly last time. He is officially 9lb better than favourite Taareef – without considering his weight-for-age allowance – and 8lb superior to Al Wukair, Christophe Soumillon gets on fantastically with him and he is tactically versatile as he proved when front-running last time.

STAT ATTACK

Storm Jazz (2.25 Windsor)

Standing for just €4,000, Group 2 winner Red Jazz has made an excellent start to life at stud with nine winners from 32 runners (28 per cent). The speedily bred Storm Jazz is the only debutante in what looks a weak novice stakes at Windsor and as a half-sister to six winners she looks a big price to make a winning start.

DARK HORSE

God Given (3.35 Deauville)

It's surprising God Given has gone somewhat under the radar, especially as she is a half-sister to multiple Group 1 winner Postponed and won a competitive Listed event in convincing style last time out. Luca Cumani has been typically patient with her, and this daughter of Nathaniel will enjoy the soft ground so there should be more improvement to come.
