Another good day following Hugh Taylor yesterday, despite his 2 pointer Natalie's Joy flopping, Soldier's Call won tipped at 25/1. Slightly annoyingly it was the third of his tips I backed the night before and that extra minute to get the bet on meant I only got 18s, anyway mustn't grumble.
His overall Royal Ascot figures including 3 ante-post tips at the advised prices were by my calculations:
Day 1: Outlay: 6 points; Return: 0 points
Day 2: Outlay 6 points; Return: 10.1 points
Day 3: Outlay: 3 points; Return: 0 points
Day 4: Outlay: 4 points; Return: 22 points
Day 5: Outlay: 6 points; Return: 32 points
Overall: Outlay: 25 points; Return: 64.1 points
Total profit: 39.1 points
I actually did a bit better on this overall by backing (big for me) and partially laying on his 2 point winner Agrotera on Friday and also getting a 15% free bet bonus with William Hill as won by more than 2 lengths which I only realised yesterday.
As mentioned before definitely not a fluke as he has done very well at Royal Ascot last few years - will definitely do this again next year and raise my stakes slighty as well.

Very well done R.C ,. As you say , well worth following H.T for the week..
I found it to be a difficult week .,
When i backed the "favourites " , the outsiders came in & when i backed the "outsiders" , the
favourites came in , not that I'm an expert , But , when your'e reading the Form, and their
rated as superstars in the making , and then ending up 6 places behind the 33-1 rag , It's
a bit Frustrating ,., but hey ., i guess that's horse racing . got to get up and carry on .

Horrific case of aftertiming here but I had Arthur Kitt at 14/1, Palasator 8/1 and Harry Angel in a trixie, it paid nice but would have been a monster if Harry had converted, a case of him blowing all chance at the gates....
