Two big straight mile handicaps, so we would probably be looking to see if we get a repeat of todays result in terms of the draw, however I am concerned that those drawn in the middle will come across and make it very difficult for horses to weave their way from the back.
This is especially pertinent in the 13:15 the Silver Hunt Cup, where I don't see a massive amount of pace across the course, so perhaps we will see a messy race. As such I've taken a price on former Hunt Cup hero Zhui Feng, who is drawn well in stall 22 and races prominently. He obviously has the course form and I think he is well treated in the handicap. He might not be good enough, but at 20/1 I thought he was a fair bet.
In the actual Hunt Cup, I am with Qaysar who took my eye on his return and the Newmarket to Ascot route gave good results yesterday. He is another drawn high and races prominently. Ryan Moore takes the ride and I think 16/1 is a fair enough price too.
Tomorrow it is all about her majesty though, my best bet is Tactical, whose price has been steadily coming in from the 10s taken a few days ago. He could do the HRH double with First Receiver earlier on the card.
