Royal Ascot - Wednesday

[Desert Orchid]

Today's bets covered. Disaster avoided. I can be more positive about tomorrow now...

he has no clock in his head so he rides everything out the back. if he has to ride from the front he murders the horse

True. the clock in head ability is still a bit underrated in the media i think. its looks less spectacular so gets less plaudits. But give me a Steve cauthen over any jockey ive ever seen.

where now for camelot?

the first two home are with trainers i have a lot of time for. No doubt someone will point out differently but give Charlton a good horse and its fine.

 

[Euronymous]

Sell him to Mullins. I'm furious with myself for backing him.

I've had a stab at the last, a race I don't like. Woodland Aria strikes me as a decent shout and I've backed it up with Annecdote and Uleavemebreathless at longer odds.

fine work sir.

So you never saw Cauthen ?

He was a very fine jockey but not a patch on Lester who was just as good a judge of pace but better all round. I am sure Oh So Sharp would have remained unbeaten had Lester still been at Warren Place.

Disappointed with Camelot today but well done to Roger Charlton and James Doyle, and a great ride from Paul Hanagan on the runner up.

If Duntle cannot beat Chigun and Dank senseless then I give up.

Well done Barry.

They tried but Chum outbid him :lol:
