I really thought we would have won last GI Darley Alcibiades S. on Friday’s opening-day program year, I was very disappointed. Orfevre had a relapse at Keeneland. Cont. p17 that day, but I really hope he can give the Japanese fans something to cheer on Sunday.

Al Kazeem=s jockey James Doyle was having to come to terms with the highly unfavorable draw dilemma yesterday. AYou always fear the worst, but I was a bit disappointed with that draw,@ he commented. ASomeone has to be drawn there and it=s us. If there were three or four pacemakers in the race, we could have tucked in but there isn=t and I=ll have to sit down with Mr. Deer and Mr. Charlton and devise a plan. Orfevre was drawn out there last year, but it probably got him beat as he had to come round the field and was committed earlier than he would have liked. They had eight millimeters of rain last night and there is a patchy forecast from here on in, so the more rain the better, as a mile and a half with cut in the ground is perfect. I just think he=ll be slightly better over a mile and a half. You dream about riding in the Arc through your childhood, so I=m really looking forward to it.@ Al Kazeem is not the sole class act who will have the burden of a wide stall to overcome, with Shinji Maeda=s Sept. 15 G2 Prix Niel scorer Kizuna (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) in 11, Dr. Christophe Berglar=s Novellist (Ire) (Monsun {Ger}) in 12 and Sheikh Joaan bin Hamad Al Thani=s Treve (Fr) (Motivator {GB}) in 15. Novellist Racing Post All will have to defy the strong statistical trend towards single-figure draws, with Dalakhani (Ire) the last to prevail from the outside 10 years ago. Stall six has housed the eventual winner three times since then and that is the post position of Susan Magnier, Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith=s G1 Epsom Derby hero Ruler of the World (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Narrowly denied by Kizuna in the Niel over the same track and trip last time, he is next to his supplemented stable companion Leading Light (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}) in five. The latter will bid to be the first to follow success in the G1 St Leger with glory here in the same season and trainer Aidan O=Brien commented, ARuler of the World ran really well in his Arc trial in France on his last run.
