Royal Ascot 2019

I am currently sat on the thinking man’s throne.

10p e-w Canadian currently being offered back to me at £950.

I’m far from rich, I just love my racing, so you can imagine how tough the decision is.

tough decision. What do you win if it is unplaced?
 
Bet update:

I have taken £946.31.

I have placed £346.31 on Questionare at 6.2 on Betfair to win another £1756.98.

Good luck.

It has been a disastrous day for me again and I badly need a winner:sorrow:
 
Nice win cpfc.And i got everything crossed for you in the lucky last !!!
 
Added a king power each way Heinz

Sunday Sovereign 2/1
Fox Chairman 7/2
Queen Power 3/1
Hero Hero 14/1
Good Birthday 14/1

I backed that yesterday too :highly_amused:

Bit late to the party - glad to see some nice winners on here :triumphant:


Including ante post stakes
Staked - 70 pts
Withdrawn - 80.4 pts

+10 pts with 11 pts live


Only had two winners so far, just lucky with The Grand Visir at 33/1 - lots of poor bets masked by that one.


Not been able to watch much either, hope everyone is having a good time

That was a shrewd move CPC, it always a tough predicament when you’ve got a decent cash out offer but so much more to win if you let the bet ride.

I had another poor day which has left me at the last chance saloon tomorrow with 2 free bets and enough money for 1 more Lucky 31. I did have a decent placepot in a Lucky 63 still live but Inns Court is a non runner in the remaining leg and it’s lost all it’s value!!
 
My last chance saloon Lucky 31:
2.30 - Nayibeth
3.40 - Hello Youmzain
4.20 - Pretty Pollyanna
5.00 - Magnetic Charm
5.30 - Bagdhad

Good luck all
 
I did all of Frankie’s other than the 5.00 in a Canadian because I fancied a few of them. Praying for it to happen. I never liked him, but if this comes in, I’ll be after marrying him!

I did a Lucky 15. cpfc,(page 22). But like a Smuch ?, didn't include stradivarius....:mad:
 
Actually had a good day . 3 L.15's. 1- 1st, 2nd.
2- 1st,1st,2nd. (frankie l15. ).
3- 1st - 22-1 south pacific ,2nd ventura rebel 16-1.
 
Anyone know anything about the Bolger horse entered in the Wokingham saturday.
4yr olds from Argentina rated 104, first run.

Southern Horse.

only other entry is in July Cup ????

pretty hard to weigh up the form but the entries for a trainer like Bolger are eyecatching.

Going again tomorrow, 2 big bets down today,
but saved on first race for small profit and ended up with decent bet on stradivarious when he went 6/4.
last race bizarrely had first four, very small bet on exchange on winner, win only on constantinople and backed other two each way, so a profit on this race also.
Up for the week, but much like kevin, that's mainly down to hugh taylor (who i don't normally follow but he made a good case) and the cowboy.
But I'm happy with my thought processes and have had a few placed and run well enough.

tomorrow

daahyey 9/2
last surprise 10-1
lil grey 33-1 ew

pablo escobar 9-1 ap

hello youmzain 7-1

-

lady madison 14-1
mamoora 20-1

top tug 33-1 ew
aquarius 40-1 ew
lucius tiberius 22-1 ew
ben vrackie 14-1 ew

going big on high numbers again in last race as draw bias seems obvious enough and worked pretty well in todays last race.
aside from winner drawn 8, who needs marking up big time and is sure to be a group class stayer of the future (not sure it'll get in the ebor). the other places were drawn
18,19,20,21,14,15,22


also had four timer on first four favourites at around 96-1, hopefully ryan moore has a good day and rides his horses a little more prominently instead of being such a docile twat leaving the stalls.
 
Ryan Moore multi.Friday. - 1- Precious moments -2-30.
2- Japan -3-05.
3- Ten sovereigns -3-40.
4- Hermosa -4-20.
5- Baghdad -5-35.
 
And.... 1.- J m Jackson -2-30.
2.- Pablo Escabarr -3-05.
3.- Hello Youmzain -3-40.
4.- Jubiloso -4-20.
5.- Magnetic Charm -5-00.
Best of Luck ....
 
Everything went wrong.

Fox Chairman’s terrible trip through the race, plus Constantinople not being ridden closer to the pace (as he needs to show his best) led to a big ‘what could have been’ day today. Time to move on to Day 4 selections.
 
Day 4 Selections, most placed earlier this week, and it looks like Hugh Taylor and Ben Linwood have been checking my IPad, because they have several of my bets in their choices today.

Race 1) DAAYEH 1 point @ 20/1, and 1 point @ 11/1.
Race 1) LAST SURPRISE 1 point @ 18/1
Race 1) EXCEPTIONAL 1 point @ 33/1

Race 2) JACK YEATS (w/o Japan) 1 point @ 20/1

Race 3) ADVERTISE 0.5 point @ 9/1

Race 4) TWIST N SHAKE 1 point @ 40/1

Race 5) HOTSY TOTSY 1 point @ 10/1
Race 5) INVITATIONAL 1.5 points @ 12/1

Race 6) BYRON FLYER 1 point @ 30/1

Yankee placed today
Daahyeh 9/2
Jack Yeats (w/o Japan) 18/1
Invitational 12/1
Byron Flyer 25/1

Finally there are a lot of AOB shorties, 4 in the next 8 races, so for interest I have put them all in an Acca, pays around 20/1.

Japan Evens
Ten Sovereigns 11/8
Hermosa 10/11
Lope Y Fernandez 6/5

Good luck everyone.
 
A lot went wrong indeed! Sunday Sovereign not at it at all. Struggle to believe that's him. Fox Chairman, shocker!

On Japan at 4/1 and 9/2 along with Pondus at 9s. Hope i can get something in that. Though after yesterdays tasty antepost prices, i am not getting my hopes up.

Have had a go on Happen in the Coronation. Hopefully she'll be held up to finish nicely. Personally think Hermosa is super, but there's a case to argue, along with the pace bias, she beat dubious stayers LTO. Both aren't fully proven over a mile. So i'll take her on.
 
2.30 - Exclusively 20/1 e/w (1st 3), Precious Moments 16/1 (1st 4)

3.05 - Pablo Escobarr 12/1 e/w (1st 3)

3.40 - Khaadem 15/2 e/w (1st 3)

4.20 - Castle Lady 15/2 e/w (1st 3)

5.00 - Invitational 10/1 e/w (1st 5), Ice Gala 28/1 e/w (1st 6)

5.35 - Fujaira Prince 6/1 e/w (1st 5)

Heinz on the above first choices.

Treble: Japan, Ten Sovereigns, Hermosa (approx 13/1) (Double without Ten Sovereigns)

Ryan Moore Win Heinz
