Well, Royal Ascot couldn’t have started much better as Map Of Stars justified some healthy market support and won the Wolferton yesterday.
Hopefully you didn’t oppose O’Brien in the Coventry either, winning it for the 12th time with Great Barrier Reef.

Only one winning favourite though, so it was a tough one in the main for punters.
Ombudsman vs Daryz is the big match up today and I’m firmly in the camp of the former to make it back-to-back wins in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes at 4.20pm.
I’m looking to Saeed bin Suroor to continue the good fortune today. He has a much more scaled down operation these days, but he’s lethal.
He doesn’t run horses for the sake of it and that’s proven with just 17 runners all season. 5 of them have won (which is a 29% strike rate) and a further 3 have placed.
He will have just 3 representatives all week and one of them is today. Victory Gold in the Windsor Castle at 6.10pm.
Beaten at Ascot by a horse who finished 5th in the Coventry yesterday on his debut over 6f, where he showed loads of pace. He was a beaten favourite next time. But he drops to 5f with hood on and he’s a massive price at 33/1 with 4 places widely available. Victory Gold is more than worthy of an each way interest!
Good luck with all your bets today.
All the best
Alex

Is it titbit or tidbit 🤔 Google AI says titbit for Britains and tidbit for our Yankee friends. So I have a titbit for you today a bit of statiness that may help at Huntingdon this afternoon. And that is Fergal O'Brien's record at Huntingdon in November. Last year he sent just 5 in November…

Somebody just asked me about this book - https://amzn.to/45hrWaM I've never heard of it or the author. It says it has 8 reviews, but when you click to read them you can only read the one 5 star review. "What it means on which day of the week a horses form comes from" I'm not sure horses…
