Royal Ascot 2024

Ran well last year, i'd like to think it'll be a knockout bet but as we all know in this game you picks yer Nag an hopes for the beast, if yer aving a bet good luck.

 

And todays placepot picks from an almost impossible card are:
230 Truly Enchanting
305 Birdman
345 Running Lion
425 Blue Rose Cen
505 Beshtani
540 Elim
And in the last, Celtic Chieftain. Very tough today and all of em could come last. Dont put your mortgage on Ascot today!!

 

Good assessment, in my view. I don't see a single bet on the card, given the size of many of the fields and the competitiveness of the racing. I think that Auguste Rodin should be cherry-ripe today, and with the aid of his pacemaker Hans Andersen, I think his stamina could trump Inspiral's speed at this trip. But I would consider any less than 2/1 as not representing anything like enough value to make him a bet.

Diamond Rain should take some beating in the Ribblesdale (3.45) tomorrow. She is only 13/8 best, but may be shorter than that by tomorrow.

 

Sky Bet allowing a tenner at evens for Ryan Moore to get a winner. If he doesn't get one in races 2-4 he should retire because @Stephen Dawson could ride one of those to victory.

 

All Ryan Moore today except Wild Tiger in the 5:05.

 

Ta
Had missed that

 

2 bets I tipped in here. Tenner on both for 46.25 back. Lovely day whilst waiting for Scotland.

 

I had the tenner on Illinois too. Easy money with the money back offer too, was bound to finish in the places at least.

 

I've just backed Sea The Lady in the 3.45.

Don't like the fav at all.

 

LOL.

Lost 10 lengths at the start.

 

She seemed to lose more than 10 lengths and didn’t finish last !
Sorry that doesn’t help but she was running on well at the end and only got beat about 11 lengths by the winner !

 

Whistlejacket which is Moore and O Brien is 11/10 currently to win the 1st race tomorrow. Sky Bet offering a max tenner with money back if it finishes 2nd, 3rd or 4th. Considering 5th in the betting is 11s and it's so short priced it should come first four.

 

Yh was looking, don't know whether to wait until tomorrow and hope the odds lengthen.

 

Celtic Chieftain let me down in one of my e/w lucky 15's had it with the first winner, Doom and Sunny Liston.

 

Bum! It was a tough day. Always is at Ascot. Dont put lots of money on

 

2:30 Arizona Blaze.
3.05 Chantilly.
3:45 Rubies are Red.
4:25 Coltrane.
5:05 Starlore.
5:40 Belle Justum.
6:15 English Oak.

 

Whistlejacket 2/1 offered by Bet365
Kyprios at 15/8 with Sky Bet.

Just these two for me today

 

I dont like short prices an am aving a bet t'morra first on the gg's for a few months Elite Status its just too good at 6 / 1 not to lump on.

 

Likely to be a non-runner, I'm afraid. Karl Burke said this afternoon that Elite Status has suffered a knock. He will be examined in the morning, but Karl said he was unlikely to run. That will probably make Inisherin a prohibitive price.
