Morning

I've not traded this race before but would be grateful for any guidance as to whether this is a good race to trade?

Because of the pedigree of the race, I'm guessing (perhaps incorrectly) that there will be some decent volume there?

It generally trades OK, but nothing like a UK race

Happy with my 6 races at Moonee Valley tonight ($214.49), especially considering I wasn't going to trade it.

This may not apply to the Arc, but French Group 1 racing in general have very high lay overrounds, often over 100%. This may have something to do with the legality of betting in France with bookies and their tote offer extortionate odds. I usually make money out of these races by laying the field.

You'd think Magical's performance will impact Happily's in the second race. Both being racing against each other previously.

Moves have been slower and more deliberate than UK racing
