3 excellent days racing this week

Have Dragon symbol backed ante post at 8/1 for the July Cup

Just added Snow Lantern at 9/2 for the Falmouth, going to give her one last chance. The ability is there she is just too keen in the first few furlongs to do herself justice.

Eyeing up ebro river if he runs too, though I'm not sure if he will be much of a price.
 
Bahrain trophy
Yibir 4/1

Has strong looking form that ties in with alenquer, adayar and lone eagle

Appleby has been mopping up the middle/long distance 3yo races this season

Has also been gelded which could bring about improvement

Had just posted in the July cup thread then saw this one opened, the rematch with rohaan will be on now that he's been supplemented for the race

I'd backed Stowell at boosted 45/1 for the St Leger so hoping he runs well in this to at least be in with a decent shout up at Doncaster. I suppose he'd need to be beating Yibir to give Hurricane Lane and Adayar any worries
 
Surprised to see William Hill offering better odds than B365 for some of the antepost prices for July meeting.

A double of Primo Bacio and Dragon Symbol was 32/1 on hills (was able to boost it further to 35/1) and only 29/1 on B365.
 
Ebro river declared and doyle has chosen him over dig two

Be interesting to see how he is priced up
 
Jumby 9/1 6 places e/w 3:00 Thursday

Has some very strong form lines with creative force and rohaan

Runs off top weight but could easily just be better than a handicapper
 
Bahrain Trophy:
Wordsworth has franked the Queen's Vase form with a good run in the Irish Derby which points to Stowell. Dancing King could be good value as he was unlucky at Ascot.
I'm not sure what to make of Yibir

Goes off 11/8 and wins comfortably

Good start to the week

Yibir impressive. I suppose the gelding has focussed his mind. A drastic step given that it bars him from the Leger and future breeding

In the July Stakes looking for an outsider:
Aleezdancer/Asymmetric/Lusail/Tolstoy

1 Lusail 15/2 (Hannon)
2 Asymmetric 11/1
3 Sam Maximus 40/1
4 Ebro River

High draw was favoured. Hannon has a super record in this race and with the stiff 6f a 7f run seemed good for the race
 
Baaeed very impressive

Worth a step up to group 1 level youd think
 
  1. Dubai Honour11/2
  2. Foxes Tales7/2
  3. King Of Clubs7/2
The 2nd had a 9 lb penalty. The winner stepped up successfully from 1m

1, Sandrine 11/5F
2 Desert Dreamer 11/2
3 Hello You 9/4

Royal Ascot form confirmed despite the heavy going there. The winner looks an early candidate for the 1000 guineas
 
Wide open 1m6f h'cap. Not sure why Amtiyaz is a higher price than the horses he beat at Ascot
Higher priced other fancies are Rajinsky, Lostwithiel and Prince Alex
