    Loads of racing.

    York has it's best card of this season in my opinion.
    Ascot hosts a group 2 mile.
    Newmarket finishes it's festival.

    What do we think ladies and gents?

    Everyone knows at this stage about 2.55 York Educate 9/1 so no need to go into detail. I am very confident that if he gets a untroubled passage he won't be beaten.

    Will the Varian team be in bits if Aljamaheer doesn't win the 2.30 at Ascot?

    The Queen Anne has been franked by Declaration of War and Elusive Kate. He'd previously ran well in the Lockinge. It does look like if he's going to win a group 2 tomorrow will be the day.

    Nah not at all. Yard think he's best on quick ground and won on good to firm last summer. Certainly didn't have an issue with it at Royal Ascot either.

    Yeah very happy with the draw even though last 5 winners have been from double figures. He'll be dropped out in rear and the long home straight at York is ideal for him. No Spencer on his back to find trouble either!

    Educate pricewised for the 3rd time. The other 2 times he cursed him so lets hope its 3rd time lucky.

    Educate and Shea Shea for me tomorrow. The latter will have something to run against tomorrow and I think he is a really good horse for this race.

    If the first time blinkers have the desired effect on DANCE AND DANCE 12-1 3.15 Newmarket he will absolutely hose up in what really should be a competitive handicap. Racing off 94 tomorrow having won previously off 110. Its been a while since we have seen him at his best but his run the time before last was encouraging. Another huge tick in the plus column is the eyecatching booking of Ryan Moore. his form figures with Ryan on top read 122.
