Hi all,
Inside today’s main piece you’ll find my Saturday Royal Ascot Placepot suggestions
I've put in a big shift for Victor Value subscribers this week, writing extensively and studying more horse than I care to count. Unlike other pundits, I spend more time on Royal Ascot than Cheltenham. It's been a challenging yet immensely enjoyable week of racing. Another two winners on Friday mean whatever happens on Saturday I've made a profit at Royal Ascot and that's the key.
I'm at a Friend's 60th Birthday meal beween 2pm and 5pm so I won't be watching the final day's action live and I won't even be taking a sneaky look at the races.
Royal Ascot – Day 5
The action concludes with the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes (3:45), the feature race of a seven-race card. Mill Stream, who won the Group 2 1895 Duke Of York Clipper Stakes at York last time, heads the ante post betting. He faces 13 rivals, and while he's a progressive young sprinter, it’s an open-looking race and I really fancy one against him.
The undercard also includes the Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes (3:05), where St Leger winner Continuous is a short-priced favourite to make a winning seasonal return. Saturday’s big betting race is the 28-runner Wokingham Handicap (5:05). On Friday morning, the bookies were going 9/1 the field, which seems about right.
Saturday Royal Ascot Placepot Suggestions
Here are my Saturday Royal Ascot Placepot suggestions:
2:30 – Pentle Bay & Expensive Rose
3:05 – Missed The Cut & Isle Of Jura
3:45 – Shartash & Shouldvebeenaring
4:25 – River Tiber & Night Raider
5:05 – Rumstar, Glenfinnan & Apollo One
5:40 – Old Faithful & Primo Lara.
Good luck if you’re playing the Placepot even I’m tempted to have to a go today.
As ever this week has been a rollercoaster but a very enjoyable one. On one level I’m glad its over but it will leave a big gap next week. I have enjoyed sharing my Royal Ascot insights with those of you who joined Victor Value service for the Royal meeting and Geegeez readers.
I'll be back on Monday with a two-part series reflecting on the five days of Royal Ascot.
Good luck with your Saturday Royal Ascot bets!
