2:30 Queen Anne Stakes
Can’t see past MODERN GAMES unless the other Godolphin - NATIVE TRAIL - has fully recovered his earlier mojo.
3:05 Coventry Stakes
I suppose the key question is whether you can rely on the remarkable time put up by ASADNA, it’s a “no contest” if you can. I’m a bit suspicious and I prefer to rely on the form of O’Brien’s RIVER TIBER who looks the better bet.
3:40 King’s Stand Stakes
Full of horses near and dear to me for whom I could make a case. Instead I think Wesley Ward’s TWILIGHT GLEAMING is much better than a 20/1 shot and I’ll go each way with him with six places available. If it was back in the 1970s and 80s when 3year olds had a fine time of it I wouldn’t be able to resist DRAMATISED., but wrong age nowadays.
4:20 St James’s Palace Stakes
Can’t see past the two 2000 Guineas winners and I think PADDINGTON shades it for me.
5:00 Ascot Stakes
AHORSEWITHNONAME never really lived up to his praise over the jumps, but showed there was something good there with a couple of decent flat wins. With Buick booked I give him a good chance.
5:35 Wolferton Stakes
The two Gosden contenders - FRANCESCO CLEMENTE and SAGA - are in my notebook and I hope they fight out the finish between them.
6:10 Copper Horse Handicap
Have absolutely no idea. Think I’ll pretend it’s a hurdle race and go with VAUBAN
