Royal Ascot: Day 1
At last it's here Royal Ascot (and the last year to be shown on bbc as channel 4 won rights to show this showpiece event from next year).
2:30 Well whats going to be 2nd to the mighty FRANKEL, most likley to be EXCELEBRATION, as chased him home 4 times and 2nd on 3 of those occasions. Small Stakes s/fcast best bet.
3:05 I was very keen on SOLE POWER e/w in this race until i saw that ORTENSIA was in race, ORTENSIA was only modest in Australia (no black caviar) but did beat SOLE POWER last time out very easy at 1st try over this 5f. At the prices i would rather stick to the form book and go with ORTENSIA e/w 6/1.
3:45 POWER is the worthy fav here, but i will be backing DRAGON PULSE e/w, finished 1/2l behind the fav in sep over 7f (staying on to late), and 1st try over the mile beat the highly regarded DABIRSIM. Ran a poor race last time but didn't settle at all. If settles better should be the e/w option here at 14/1.
4:25 This looks very tricky as not alot to go on form wise, so a little guess work involded. Going 7/2fav in field like this is criminal, so again looking at e/w alternatives.
ENGLISHMAN 10/1 ran very green 1st time out (outpaced for most of race) but won niclely once knew his job, and OLYMPIC GLORY 25/1 won very easy 1st time out (on bridle) over same ground/distance as today. trick race but those 2 e/w should be the value.
5:00 ELYAADI (bet of day for me), loves ASCOT (raced twice and 2nd on both occasions at ASCOT, inc this race 2 years ago off 4lb higher) and 2nd to SWINGKEEL of 5lb higher mark in last years Queens Alexandra, had a good prep run over 14f last time out, and well be very hard to beat this year 8/1.
5:35 Good Luck if betting in this race
RECAP: tricky races today (big fields) but best bet for me is 5:00 ELYAADI 8/1 E/w.
Good luck all if having a bet today.

Nice post,did not do too well at ascot, had 4 placed in my lucky 15, which had Sole Power. So made a decent profit on that bet. Down on the day, maybe tomorrow will be better(hope so).
