A poor Royal Ascot from a punting perspective, very little has gone right, apologies, one of those and we will of course bounce-back, yesterday however was brutal, nothing allowed us to be entertained from the off, despite our selections being backed in, proving many other more wealthy fools agreed, nothing ran to form. A strangeContinue reading “Saturday 18 June 2022 – Royal Ascot Day 5”

Friday 17 June 2022 – Royal Ascot Day 4
A day of oh so nearly, Frankie on Saga, poor positioning cost us the race despite the very strong start (finishing faster than everyone else), Mojo Star second in the Gold Cup (another where Frankie on Stradivarius has been chastised by Gosden and Owner) and Israr again when ahead could not see it out, placingContinue reading “Friday 17 June 2022 – Royal Ascot Day 4”
Thursday 16 June – Royal Ascot Day 3
A poor day yesterday where nothing ran to form, Nahanni rather than spooked by fireworks, seems spooked by the game, no sort of run, lacklustre and that worrying performance at Epsom (uneasy movement in the paddock prior to fireworks) is now compounded, none more disappointing however than Bashkirova, she ran no race at all andContinue reading “Thursday 16 June – Royal Ascot Day 3”
Wednesday 15 June 2022 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 2
A fine opening day yesterday, Baaeed may really just be that special, winning without exerting a muscle in the opener, Bradsell ensured we had a winner on the board for the day and a lack of luck in running for Caddilac ensured he could only finish second. The double paid ew (around 2/1) with theContinue reading “Wednesday 15 June 2022 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 2”
Friday 18 June 2021 – Royal Ascot Day 4
Morning all, a day where not much went right I am afraid, pipped on the line in the opener which set the tone for a day that meant we gave some back to the bookies. It happens and of course over a period we are well in profit. Furthermore, the British weather ahead of EnglandContinue reading “Friday 18 June 2021 – Royal Ascot Day 4”
Thursday 17 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 3
Afternoon all, does anyone fancy some Chipotle? I certainly did yesterday and with the blog doing even better individual views wish than the day before, I know plenty of readers did too. In an afternoon where the draw bias seemed fatal if you were drawn low, Chipotle advised at 25/1 was given a perfect rideContinue reading “Thursday 17 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 3”
Wednesday 16 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 2
Good Morning, on this scorching hot, beautiful summer’s day, just how we like it for Royal Ascot. Well, yesterday was good wasn’t it, not just content with tipping the 40/1 winner of the Derby last time we played, RESHOUN landed for us at 66/1 to make the day handsomely profitable, place money on a fewContinue reading “Wednesday 16 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 2”
Tuesday 15 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT – DAY 1
Good morning and we’ve made it, Flat racing’s premier showcase event, 5 days of pageantry, elite horse racing and the odd glass of bubbly, the continuation of restrictions mean a full racecourse is unlikely anytime soon but with ITV broadcasting every race from all 5 days, it promises to be special. Finally, apologies for theContinue reading “Tuesday 15 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT – DAY 1”
