    Also with the resident Race Maker, but excluding Stubbs.

    I'll be larging it on Dawn Approach as soon as he hits 2-1, which I'm convinced he will at some stage, such is the rush to take him on. Although I may have to settle for BOG :)

    Good luck today Wooley - both with the bets and with the job. Don't forget to tell those newbies that Reebok endorses DA - I'm sure they will be impressed <laugh>

    Edit: Just noticed that Corals are going 2-1 about Animal Kingdom, max bet £25

    As there is no Royal Ascot competition (shame on us) I'll put my selections here

    14.30 Elusive Kate - sentimental pick but must have a good chance (Trade Storm for a place)
    15.05 Cracking sprint. Could pick half a dozen in this and still not get the winner. At a push, Swiss Spirit but to ensure (hopefully) I have an interest inside the last half a furlong I'll go for 4 against the favourite; Swiss Spirit, Pearl Secret, Kingsgate Native, Reckless Abandon.
    15.45 Toronado
    16.25 Riverboat Springs
    17.00 Marchese Marconi
    17.35 Anticipated - Banker ew at 6/1

    There is a Royal Ascot stable competition Ron. Same format as the Champions Series Competition - pick 3 trainers and 3 jockeys to follow through the week as well as a runner in each race. There's a thread up with the link.

    I'm doing the old mugs treble of Animal Kingdom, Shea Shea and Dawn Approach which pays 20/1.

    Having a decent wager on Animal Kingdom at evens too. The opposition looks very mediocre for a Group 1 and I don't think he'll need to be 100% to win this.

    If Shea Shea is as good as he looked in Meydan, then surely all the British & Irish sprinters aren't good enough on a line through Sole Power. I wouldn't be taking 3/1 about him, however, as some doubts exist but he's the most likely winner in my eyes.

    This has to be the weakest Queen Anne for a long time. The home team are an embarrassment, not 1 genuine G1 horse. Animal Kingdom will probably win impressively, as this isn't going to be much of a test :biggrin:

    I'm e/w on Elusive Kate here. I can't see her out of the 3 and I think there's enough unknowns about the fav.
