    I think the O'Brien combo should not be under estimated. small e/w's at some big prices

    less quality today than the first 3 days and it looks quite a competitive card.

    2.30 the unknown factor here is the Wesley Ward horse, Sunset Glow, but in any case I like the look of PATIENCE ALEXANDER in this.

    3.05 I consider BOLD SNIPER to have the best chance of all the favourites today and Ryan Moore should take the lead in the race to be top jockey of the week.

    3.45 Adelaide and Snow Sky will be strong but I have a slight preference for BUNKER who should come on stronger for his run in the Dante. Notably he came 2nd in a top 2 year old race at the meeting last year.

    4.25 always a very competitive race. My Titania is probably the one to beat but if she doesnt then I think the strongest challenger will come from RIZEENA

    5.00 No idea on this race other than the fact that favourites are having a very good week here and MARZOCCO could add to that list.

    5.35 this looks a good race to end with. I am going for RUSSIAN REALM to win and PASTORAL PLAYER each way.

    It would also be great for the game if Olly won The Coronation Stakes, small E/W Double for me.

    Good Luck <ok>

    3.05 Adelaide looks to be up against a very beatable bunch. Unexposed. Could prove a cut above at 2/1.

    Good luck with My Titania lads. Hope she wins. John Oxx is a nice bloke.

    It would, but I fear they may have left the season behind by running her in Ireland. I hope I am being a sceptical old thing, but we have seen horses ruined because of running on unsuitable ground. I think a fresher horse will win the Coronation.

    Mezzotint @ 25/1 E/W 5:35 Ascot Paddy Powers 1st 6 Places Paid @ 1/4 the Odds

    Interesting Jockey booking in young Joseph O'Brien AKA "Longshanks" for this Stuart Williams trained horse, having his 3rd run for this barn, the first 2 on unsuitable ground, ran an o.k. race from a bad draw in this race last year when trained by Marco Botti. Ran an excellent race in 2nd. off similar mark at H.Q. the last time he encountered Similar underfoot conditions over 7 furlongs. Mezzotint appears to be well drawn here in stall 31 and an improved performance looks on the cards.

    I'm on with Paddy's who are paying out 1st 6 Places 1/4 the Odds, it will probably finish 7th like most good E/W bets <laugh>

    Good Luck <ok>

    Although it's great for racing and the Royal meeting from a punting point of view I wish the yanks would stay at home. It makes punting on these races impossible as they have no form we can read and are racing on a track they would never encounter at home, meaning in truth the trainer and Jockey themselves have little idea if the horse can be expected to win or not. In the first race I fancy Sexy Legs and Bitter lake but have to leave the race alone as I have no idea whatsoever what Sunset Glow is, which from a purely punting point of view is disappointing.

    Later in the day however
    3.05 Bold Sniper
    3.45 Adelaide

    Strong bets

    4.25 Lightening Thunder
    5.35 Horstead Keynes

    Small stakes

    Good luck all

    Anyone used racebets? Surely these will be closer to 4/6 and 2/1
