Thirsk Fancies

Good morning all,

It’s not quite “Super Saturday”, we have that to look forward to the following week. However, we do have Group 1 action with the Coral Eclipse at Sandown (3:35). We also have a potentially good card at Haydock with the Lancashire Oaks (2:40) and the Old Newton Cup Handicap (3:15) the highlights of a seven-race card. You can see the best of the action from both courses on ITV Racing.

Inside today’s main piece. I'm looking ahead to Saturday's action and a 12/1 shot in the mile handicap at Sandown. Plus, I have a few of interest running at Thirsk this afternoon.

Windsor Selection & Royal Ascot Review – Part 1

Good morning all,

Royal Ascot is done and dusted for another year.  We’ve just had the privilege of watching five days of fantastic flat racing.  The likes of Poetic Flare, Oxted, Palace Pier, Love, Mohaafeth, Subjectivist, Point Lonsdale, Wonderful Tonight and Rohaan provided us with some seriously good performances last week.

It's probably recency bias at work but it was one of the best Royal Meetings of recent years. The handicaps were competitive and provided plenty of tough puzzles to solve. You can give yourself a well-deserved round of applause if you managed to come out in front. It was one of the toughest Ascot’s from a punting perspective.  I just made a small profit on the meeting but I will take it.

Over the next couple of days, I am going to look back at my Royal Ascot highlights and provide you with a few for the tracker.

Inside today’s main piece I’m looking back to Saturday’s action. Plus, I have a selection from Windsor.
