Manduro on course for Deauville

I very much doubt he will run in the Arc. His connections have never been keen to run him over 12 furlongs (not this year, anyway)

He hasn't ever looked like the step up in trip will give anymore improvement.

Depends on the way the Arc is run.If it is run as it usually is, i wouldnt back manduro,but if it is run like last years, he'd win and you know if it was run like last years, they should chance putting George into it! huge surprise if he ran in it but why not,nothing to lose

George looks more quirky than ever now, and looking back on his run in the Eclipse you would say that 12 furlongs shouldn't be a problem. I certainly won't be backing him again though.

Dylan should win the King George (if the ground remains fast), they have been messing him about at 10 furlongs when, in my opinion he needs every yard of 12.

Authorized is heading for another beating in the Juddmonte....... just give up with him, he's another awful Derby winner.
