Day 1 - Tuesday - Royal Ascot 2020

[Big Bucks]

So basically done the bare minimum of study or work for this, or too put it bluntly, Jack shit! Pretty much being a sheep or going with what I like other people hype up! Sorry, but least I'm honest ha! So here are "my" picks

KAESO 13/2
CIRCUS MAXIMUS 5/2
FRANKLY DARLING 6/4
MOGUL 5/6
NO BET
QUEEN POWER 6/1
MOON KING 8/1 BLUE LAUREATE16/1

Couple singles, multiples, Yankees and Lucky 15s with others throughout the week. Cheers guys and sorry for lack of input!

The only good thing about racing since the restart is that I haven't had many bets. At the moment I am struggling to get one in the four. Hopefully, things can only improve.

Lots of showers in the week's forecast. How many will land? I have tried to avoid too many who want it quick.

1.15 My usual strategy with these cavalry charges is either avoid or find something with a bit of course form. On that basis have gone with Glen Shiel (EW) and because he looks the most likely 'Group horse in a handicap' tried to cover with Daarik (Win).

1.50 Duke Of Hazzard (EW) was the first horse I backed. He was initially supported but he has drifted back out with the threat of rain. If the rain keeps away I think he has a big chance.

2.25 I don't like betting shorties but although I missed the 2/1 I couldn't see beyond Frankly Darling (Win).

3.00 Can't find any reason to get involved in this race.

3.35 Battaash the most likely winner but at the price he can go and do it on a course where he seems to have problems seeing his race out. I have chanced Liberty Beach and Sergei Prokofiev (5 places). Arguably, the latter's most impressive win was on a softer surface.

4.10 I have gone with Lavender's Blue (EW) but any rain again a big concern. That said there are question marks about plenty.

4.40 There has been consistent support for Dettori's mount but on the basis of his previous good effort stuck with Dubai Fifty (EW). Stable form and rain the two concerns.

Duke Of Hazzard my best of the day if the ground is anywhere near good. Fingers crossed.

Good luck.

[Viking Flagship]

She’s been friendless in the market but I rather liked the performance of Miss Yoda in the Lingfield Oaks Trial. She showed a cracking attitude in a race that was messy for her and in doing so has already beat 4 of these. She was well on top at the end and you’d have to fancy her to confirm that form. With 4 places available she’d only have to beat 3 of the others home to reward each way support and whilst Frankly Darling might be a star, Miss Yoda has the form in the book and looks sure to run her race. You only have to look at the Pretty Polly for an example of a well touted Gosden filly being outdone by the experienced stable 2nd string with the best actual form in the race.

Only one play tomorrow, Blue Laureate in the last, dour stayer often outpaced but a decent enough attitude and will relish every yard(and any potential rain). I was hoping after last weeks run his next would be a spin over hurdles very early July, then getting a mark circa 120ish and hosing in a 3m hurdle . I suppose a 2m4 flat pot of 22.6k can do along the way!

Billesdon Brook looks a bit of value at 22/1. Think there could be a big run tomorrow

Pricewise, Kealy and Calvin have put up Bless Him in the Queen Anne. At least I'm not alone in thinking he was overpriced.

[The King Pimm]

I’m generally rubbish betting on the Flat but have gone for:
Fox Chairman - single

Lucky 15
Flaming Spear
Sergei Prokofiev
Magic Lily
Moon King

Good luck all

1.15..War Glory

Very good AW record and thriving last autumn, readily defying BHA mark of 102 in Lingfield handicap. Wasn't himself in Listed company when last seen and lower turf mark is justified.

Good luck all.

[ComplyOrDie]

Best of luck to everyone on Day 1

I know mate, and I don't think will be the last this week!

Are you a member of the racing post? Or how do you get the Kealy and Pricewise updates? If you are is it good value? I know they have good offer on it at the minute.

I've joined for 3 months using the code that was posted on here. £10 for 3 months is a great offer.

The only way I've ever made money at Ascot is the day I went through the card, so only having a couple of plays today as it looks v tricky

Also is it only 365 who do BOG overnight now?

[Kevloaf]

Annoying regarding Bless Him.

I've also cashed Accidental Agent (with coral) and rebacked at 130/1 e/w (4 places) with Ladbrokes.
I've also laid him at 140.0 (So have a free bet on him at 40.0)

I also added Mohaather yesterday too and don't remember doing it
