Reading that article, Chelsea Cloisters is going to be a short price fav considering Wesley Wards record in the race. Took some 7/2 with the aim of trading out on the day.
About 4 years ago, I went through the card at Ascot. Basically paid for the wedding. I came home to my finance and I was like "I've won 6 grand!". Much fun was had.
But as the conversation progressed she asked more about the bet.
- What odds was it?
- 66,000/1!
- How come you only won 6k?
- I only put 10p on it
- Why didn't you put a pound on it? We'd have a deposit for a house
Great story robith but I'm a little confused why you didn't tell the missus you won 2k and load 4k into your Cheltenham pot....
Haha Ista - surely the 10p acca indicates that might be a bit rich for my blood. I'm up to the heady heights of a fiver a point at Chelters and £2.50 the rest of the time
One very simple strategy for my Royal Ascot - will be backing all Hugh Taylor tips blind. He is quite frankly a brilliant tipster and the only one I am aware of who has all his tips online (for the last 9 years, scroll to bottom of page): http://www.attheraces.com/tips/atr-tipsters/hugh-taylor As you can see his ROI has improved year on year.
For those that are aware of him yes the prices go across the board in around 10 seconds so difficult to get on every day but just about possible - not that I do. I did some analysis of his tips over a year ago and he was definitely more prolific on the All Westher (rarely tips on the jumps), and particularly his 2 pointers (never does more than 2 pointers these days). So I always back those.
From memory I believe his last 3 year's of Royal Ascot tips have yielded a decent profit - obviously no guarantee the same will happen this year of course. Great thing about Royal Ascot is that due to the liquidity in the market you have a decent chance at getting the prices either the night before when he posts them on the ATR website (after a 5 min head's up via his twitter account), or early the next morning when they can drift back out. He's already tipped a couple antipost.
I realise many of you astute punters would rather pick your own, but for anyone like me who doesn't know much about the flat it does keep things easy

He blows most tipsters out of the water. It won't be the worst strategy to follow him at Royal Ascot as you'd imagine the prices of his selections will hold at the bigger meetings.

There aren't many better feelings than backing a horse than Hugh Taylor puts up
I already read what he has to say, and Andy Holding too on oddschecker. If they ever 'agree' I would hardly ever leave the bet alone.
I don't follow either blindly but equally wouldn't ever not read what HT has to say!
Crack On Crack On is jocked up in the Britannia so I've had a couple of points at 10/1. I think he's probably still ahead of the handicapper due to his running style and the stiff finish should help. Hopeful rather than confident though.

He went into the notebook after winning last time for me. 10/1 at the head of the market. How much shorter do you think he'll get? 4 places now but one they might offer some decent concessions on?

I've gone win only Kev. My slight concern is the straight mile so he could easily bomb out completely.
A fair comment about price and he may be bigger on morning of race.
