Onto gold cup day we go

Still lacking my wounds after the horse I backed to win last years Prince of Wales wins this years beating luxembourg who id backed at 12s into 2nd

But we go again and they say its always darkest before the dawn

And I'm hoping that the dawn is named Eldar Eldarov

On the Queens vase and leger winner at 8s who ran a very nice prep for this staying on strongly carrying a 5lb penalty and being very weak in the market

4yos have an excellent recent record in the gold cup and I'm hoping he's the one to continue that

Hopefully we get a good clash between him and Coltrane

No bets in the other races but I'm very much looking forward to seeing Elite status vs American rascal. Are they both on the wrong side? We saw the high numbers dominate the straight course races today, it took jimi hendrix winning the race on the far side by half the track for a low number to win. Be interesting to see what the going stick says in the morning.

and then the exciting Al Asifah, who looked a possible superstar last time, in the ribblesdale. Backing up quickly in a big but rather average looking field.

We will also get an idea of the strength of the oaks form when caernarfon runs in the Hampton Court

So a potentially informative day ahead

Yesterday was very painful for my pocket!! Really hoping I have much more luck today. Would love Elite Status to win and then Coltrane for some multis to come in and others to stay alive with. Here's what I've backed today:

15.05 - Davideo / Wonder Legend / Struth
16.20 - Coltrane
17.00 - Surely Not / Royal Cape
17.35 - Waipiro
18.10 - Croupier / Northern Express

I'd normally be quite confident with these selections but after yesterday....

Best of luck everyone!!
 
Looks very difficult again but picked out a couple at prices later in the day.

17:00 Theoryofeverything 18/1 & Bless 25/1
17:35 Caernafan 10/1 & Canberra Legend 18/1

Had Coltrane in the GC in an antepost double that's already lost. And decided not to go back in today.

Be good to see Elite Status win well also. Might see if there's any length specials for a 'fun' bet.

First race sorted ....great prices :eagerness:
 
Just had another look at The Albany for tomorrow and
Snafiya @ 100/1 sticks out like a sore thumb. Blue Point filly hasn't won a race yet but George Boughey has JMac booked to ride. Drawn 14, she might just be a pace setter for Soprano but I've taken a flyer of 90/1 6 places.
