Hi all,
A couple of disappointing days to put behind us. I’m concentrating the rest of this week’s selections at Royal Ascot.
Royal Ascot
3:05 – Gisburn – 6/1 @ Paddy Power & Ladbrokes – Built on the promise of his racecourse debut when making all to win at Newbury last month. He looks an exciting juvenile prospect although he’s unlikely to get his own way like he did last time.
4:20 – Poetic Flare – 4/1 – Gen – The 2,000 Guineas winner Poetic Flare looked a shade unlucky not to win the Irish version last time. This will be his fifth start of the season and he did have hard race at the Curragh. Still, he’s the one to beat.
5:35 – Felix – 5/1 @ Bet365 – Finished runner-up in the Winter Derby at Lingfield and then put in a career best effort on RPR’s when a 4-length 3rd of 12 behind Lord North back on turf in a Group 1 at Meydan. Should be suited by a strongly run 1m 2f and has won off a break.
Cheers
John
