Yesterday was very close to being another successful day for us. Korngold ran a good race, but took too long to pick up, and get into top stride. Placed third, landing the each way bet at 10/1 was our only success from four. He will win antoher day. Courageous ran a brilliant race in the Buckingham Palace Stakes at Ascot. He made all for most of the race, and deserved more than a 5th place finish as you could have thrown a blanket over the first six at the line. I'm greatly encouraged by that selection, given the complete lack of form so far this season, even though he is still a losing bet. Pivot Bridge, ran ok, but was beaten a furlong out. Adilapour ran a stinket, and is now a shadow of the horse who started the season! Two bets today on the last day of Royal Ascot: [b][u]Royal...

Great winner on Thursday with Sagramor. Even with the extra weight since Haydock I always felt he was capable of pulling this one off too. Puts this blog in profit for Royal Ascot! It wasn't to be for Future Generation at Leopardstown, he seemed to be travelling as well as any of them, but didn't seem to pick up as well as he did last time. He will win another day though.

Hopefully most of you will be returning profit for Wednesday's selections. Fury was withdrawn lame before the 2.30 race, and Kieron Fallon was obviously disappointed in an in terview later in the day, as he felt his mount would be in contention. Eaton Forever finished a good 5th, and most bookmakers paid out on 5th in this race, however as I failed to point this out yesterday, for the purposes of this blog it will be recorded as a losing bet. Today, we have a selection for Day 3, and also a solid selection at Leopardstown, both of which will be fondly remembered from the 21st May selections. The day we landed 4 out of 4, at combined odds of 2400/1! [b][u]Royal Ascot[/u][/b] 4.25pm (Britannia Handicap) [b]Sagramor[/b] 1pt Each Way bet Current Betfair price: 9.2 Best available...
