You can still get 8/1 about Queen Kindly with Paddy Power. She's 6s and 7s everywhere else.

Yeah seen that. Used up my free bets from last nights football on it, shame they're 1/5 for top 3. Hoping Skybet will do the usual first race special (money back as free bet if 2nd or 3rd)
 
Going ascot tomorrow and really fancy Quiet Reflection and Nemoralia!

Torn in the first though between cuff and create a dream - anyone have a strong fancy between the two? Or something else?
 
In the opening Albany Stakes, all eyes will be on Queen Kindly, watching to see if she can give Frankel a pattern race winner so early in his career as a stallion.

I am sure that I had read during the week that Air Force Blue had been supplemented for the Commonwealth Cup, but that looks to have been an expensive decision now that he is not even going to post. Indeed, the going has made it something of a disappointment as most of those taking part do not currently look like Group 1 campaigners. Ballydoyle is represented by two who won at this fixture as two year olds; however Waterloo Bridge has shown little in three starts this term and Washington Dc was beaten in a Group 3 last time and has never won on turf beyond five furlongs. Log Out Island has been ultra consistent but it is hard to see him stealing a huge lead here like he did at Newbury. Buratino reverted to sprinting after his Guineas no-show but was well beaten by Quiet Reflection, who steps up to the top table having won five of her six starts and should be able to account for Donjuan Triumphant, even though that one was not race-fit at Haydock.

In the Coronation Stakes, the underfoot conditions will definitely suit the favourite Jet Setting and the Irish 1000 Guineas winner’s main opposition comes from a group of fillies who chased home La Cressonniere in the Pouliches, best of whom would appear to be French raider Qemah, her trainer’s first string that day when third to her stablemate. Nathra, Besharah and Alice Springs all have it to do on that form. The Newmarket 1000 Guineas form is represented by Mark Johnson’s Fireglow, fourth at HQ and second in the Musidora, who should be okay on the ground. Will she take on Jet Setting or let her have a soft lead?
 
I know everyone is looking at Royal Ascot but the bet of the season so far runs at Goodwood tomorrow night, the price is immense value and if Kinema goes close at the Royal meeting it will be slashed.

Goodwood
7.50 Monotype 7-4

It could be put with the newcomer Dahroos 9-2 in the last at Newmarket if you fancy a double, but I really feel the selection will win.
 
CHOREOGRAPHER can dance to victory.

Should have run in a very open Derby IMO but that's the way it goes. Hopefully Atzeni can find the gaps this time after he got stopped as much as 3 times at York.

Soft ground the slight unknown but Sea The Stars progeny are showing no problems with a stamina test whatsoever!

2.30 BLETCHLEY 18/1 e.w & QUEEN KINDLY 13/2

Like both of these. Queen Kindly won very easily whereas Bletchley was an unfancied 25/1 shot. Improvement to come in both.

3.40 LA RIOJA

Ground no problem-put up a very exciting performance on soft last year and will be better for reappearance.

4.20 NEMORALLIA

Classy, some doubts about the ground but looked to have no issues in America with a bit of give. Jet Setting had a hard couple of races and perhaps that might take the edge off her.




 
Loving these interviews where the jocks are clearly moved by the emotion of it all. I do not criticise Ryan Moore as some do as we all have different personalities and some more introverted etc, but it's great to see Dougie Costello and Adam Kirby so moved by hitting these heights. It is when life is at it's best when whatever it is moves us into those places which everyday coming and going fails to do, and sport is a great medium for such moments.

If Jet Setting is in anything near the form of her defeat of Minding she should win this well. Hopefully the ground is soft enough for her. Could be her last spin before she's whisked off to pop some sprogs!
