“She was awesome.” Enthused Dettori after the win at Kempton, “Her work was good but she’d not gone beyond a mile and I was worried, but she is in the hands of a master trainer. There’s no one like John Gosden for getting the job done. She’s been absent for 11 months, so you’d absolutely expect her to improve.” Which is true, that result meaning that in the 2018 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe Betting Odds Enable is still the preferred bet on sports in France right now.

Is Enable The Best Bet On The Arc At Unibet?

That absence was the result of an injury scare which usually puts the cap on a career in horse racing but with the Kempton win under her saddle it would seem in the 2018 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe betting odds Enable is fairly priced, the filly back to winning ways instantly which is why the odds on Cracksman have drifted out to 7/1 and Waldgeist loiters at 8/1 on sites like Unibet, however there is a fair bit of interest in Sea Of Class at 9/2 who is looking very good.

However popular a wager it may be, Cracksman, it should be remembered was beaten at Ascot by Poets Word back in June, and Poets Word could still turn up at the Arc (although it’s unlikely) at around 14/1, something that stands in stark contrast to Waldgeist who won just this month at Longchamps itself, its fourth win in a row. Although Sea of Class has also won four on the bounce and taking advantage of French gambling laws might well be a better Arc wager.
