Royal Ascot 2017

What's it called faugheen , I will probably miss ffp

Bless Him. Ran at Goodwood a couple of Saturday's ago from out of the handicap, finishing 6th, but got into some serious trouble in-running. I was hoping for a mega price but not so sure now.
 
Bless Him has been priced up at 33/1 with Skybet so I've got a few quid on him, using a friends account. Paddy Power have gone 14/1 and that's the kind of price I think he should be.
 
Maths Prize for the Queen? 33s with Lad and Coral, 10s with 365?
 
I hadn't noticed that but it's a big difference of opinion. Do you know much about Maths Prize?
 
was given Von Blucher for the Hunt Cup, not seen a move on it yet tho.
 
Do we not all just re-mortgage and hoover up the Evens Ribchester ?
Buying money...
 
Tuesday's Bets -

Multiples - I have a Churchill (Irish 2000 Guineas) bet rolling on to Ribchester... which then lands on Order of St George... (When Ribchester and OOSG we're quite a bit bigger) :p

and I had 12 pts on "All to place - Ribchester,Churchill,Order of St George,Caravaggio,Winter" so Ribchester needs to be going very close to winning this for me :highly_amused:

Also placed a 4 pt trixie on Ribchester,Marsha,Churchill

2.30 - Ribchester (no single bet, covered in multiples, see above) - I'm getting tempted by Mutakayyef each way but haven't yet.
3.05 - Shortlist is - Nebo, Rajasinge, Romanised, Prince of The Dark - all double figures and 4 places so I might have 4 small e/w bets. Not much of my own work here, I do like De Bruyne Horse but think Moore could have ridden and didn't so happy to go further down the list...
3.40 - Lady Aurellia at 10/1 5 pts with PP - Backed Marsha in the trixie as she is the right fav IMO and very close to backing Signs of Blessing each way as well.... I obviously love the price on LA but I wouldn't be picking her which makes things a little odd haha. Podcasts giving good mentions to Ardhoomey and Alpha Delphini too... although not on those at the stage. Only LA in a single so far...
4.20 - Churchill 100%. no bet though I Will back Barney Roy if he hits 7/2, each way... and wait for my account to close
5.00 - I can't have Thomas Hobson at all.... 2 pts shorter for being Mullins, 2 pts for Moore... both a bonus but rubbish price. Shortlist of 3, Beyond Conceit, Endless Acres and Who Dares Wins Hugh Taylor picked Endless Arces and I will follow that in .... toss up between the others, Beyond Conceit at the moment.
5.35 - Disappointed to miss 66/1 about James Garfield. Not played in this race yet, and I might have a Churchill, Declarationofpeace double in the morning, but no strong opinion at all.
