Two early fancies

Palace Pier 5/1

Big fan of this horse and am hopeful he will show himself to be the premier miler in Europe this season

Got stuck in the mud at ascot but before that looked a serious horse

On better ground he will take some beating if he’s as good as I think he could be.

Commonwealth Cup

Campanelle 10/1

Won at the track over 5f, one of the few winners from a low draw on the straight track all week, then followed up in style in the prix morny

Was tried over a mile at the breeders cup and travelled into it nicely before simply not staying

Wesley Ward will have her primed for this youd hope and shes the one to beat for me

Palace pier entered on Friday in a group 2

Will be good to see him out
 
I saw an ATR interview with Adam Kirby a few weeks back where he's pretty keen on Diligent Harry for Ascot, currently around 16/1 for the commonwealth. He'd just won at Lingfield and AK mentioned it unprompted by the interviewer. Have him in some multiples with Subjectivist following his win at Meydan, maybe this is finally the year Stradivarius is beaten!
 
Personally I think subjectivist is the type of horse that stradivarius will beat with ease if he's anywhere near his best

These one paced Johnston stayers just dont have the speed to beat him, he just lopes around on the bridle and uses his turn of foot to come past them


He is getting on now though so every chance he won't be as good this year and then subjectivist is a huge player because I can't see santiago staying the trip

Absolutely no question Stradivarius is the better horse and a queen's vase and three gold cups is some record, I'm maybe more looking at the probability of four gold cups in a row and thinking about the likelihood of that. If there's a horse and trainer that'll do it, it's Stradivarius and Gosden but he's short enough and another year older.
 
Its just a shame galileo chrome was retired as he was still a shell of a horse and very unexposed when winning the ledger

Couldve been a serious 4 and 5 year old
 
Wesley ward unleashed a horse called Averly Jane recently that looked another 5f rocket

Would be very interested if we hear any vibes about her coming to Ascot

Perfect little prep for the Lockinge and Queen Anne for Palace Pier

Gosden saying he’s far from fully fit and will come on for the run

Will take some beating this season

“Averly Jane was very, very impressive. She kind of geared down and won in the fastest time of the meet,” said Ward.

“She had only had three fast works in her lifetime before she ran, which is what made it so impressive – there’s going to be a big upside with her, I think.

“I spoke with the owners and she would be one we’re targeting at the Albany Stakes at Ascot as it looks like she’ll go a bit further.


Found that about her

If she is good again tomorrow il be having a bet as soon as the Albany markets go up

Id also be hoping to see kimari line up in the diamond jubilee

6/4 for tomorrow
 
FinalFurlong91 have you any thoughts on Haqueeqy's step up to listed racing tomorrow? I wasn't a fan of the ride he was given in the Lincoln and yet he still won despite the trouble.
 
Iv put haqeeqy in my 10 to follow

My thinking being they have palace pier and to me haqeeqy looked to have loads of speed and could clean up in the 7f races this season

Though I had momentarily forgotten about space blues

id be a bit dissapointed if he didn't win tomorrow though wont be betting at the short odds

I have stradivarius in multis with palace pier, campanelle and battaash

So hoping he wins tomorrow to show hes still top dog

I also have some doubles on wembley/smb hopefully rolling on to Love in the prince of Wales stakes
 
Lovely little prep for stradivarius

Cantered all over them and frankie just kept him up to his work once hitting the front

All set for a go at 4 in a row

Love that horse
