king george sat ascot 3.35

come on guys say summit even if its bollax foyles ! i am not easily offended !

Short and sweet here FOYLES .Adayar will be carrying my money as it's there for all to see the form but it is a 3yo. A 3yo that will take care of this lot imho. GL.

Actually, your horse could easily be in the mix FOYLES hence a place lay of Love.

good luck stewy yeah adayar was my first thought but looking through all the form and reruns  just think mishriff is the value ,but i am out of form the last 3 or 4 weeks so you may well be right .

Not my FAV race FOYLES and I wouldn't change my mind if I was you.

no wont change my mind stewy ,we all know what happens when ya change yer mind ,the betting gods step in and punish you !

Severely !!

Adayar receiving 8lbs from Love and 11lbs from Muishriff. A really useful age allowance  at this stage of the season.

For that reason alone Adayar must have a terrific chance.

I don't think Love will run if ground is not favourable, but adayar must be the bet

The obvious bet was Wonderful Tonight. If the rain comes she has every chance, if it doesn't she doesn't run and you get your money back.

I hear they are opening a new pub on Jim Baxter Way ( formerly Wembley Way ).
To be called "The Three Penalties".
Very bitter beer to be given away on opening day.

As suggested the mover has been Wonderful Tonight as a bet to nothing. Unfortunately, at the moment it is looking more like nothing, but you can't be certain with thunderstorms.

Love for me. They won’t run her if ground isnt right. I can’t see by her, she’s amazing.  There’s no way the derby winner has her class….


Famous last words

Waiting on the going weather before deciding on if to pull the trigger on Mishriff.

But he can throw in a stinker…which is my worry lol

No hiding place tomorrow…he’s got to travel and roll up to them like Harbinger and then stomp on them.

Also this race could be a total non event if Ryan gets the opportunity to take a walk in front on Love…re Highland Reel

The expectation is the other jockeys won’t let him do that but can we really trust them? Hmm

Oisen and Egan are smart kids so maybe but then again…

Got to be with the classy 3-y-0 at this time of the year. I agree with stewarty.

Does anyone know if it's likely to have an A v B in the race tomorrow?

I would imagine so stewarty but they don't put them up until a couple of hours before.
For me it's all about which Adayer turns up and that's impossible to forecast.
We know that 5 time Gp 1 winning Love handles track and going so were the match between these two I'd favour her as we have no idea how Adayer will handle the ground.  Alenquer form would seem to favour Adayer over Lone Eagle but again on different going.
So, I'll watch only I think and it looks worth watching if all six stay in.

I think Mishriff is here on a fact-finding mission (whether he stays 12f or not) as another renewal against St Mark's Basilica in the Juddmonte will probably end in a similar result as The Eclipse. I'm no fan of Adayar; An AOB 1-2 perhaps.

adayer for me.

Any torrential rain during the night or present moment? Much appreciated.

I dont think it has rained yet, scheduled now for around 8AM but not expected to be that heavy until 11AM.

light rain now, with showers this morning and possible thunderstorms this afternoon.

whaw its only the 2nd  time in 10 years the derby winner has gone for this

well if its promising thunderstorms and perhaps torrential rain in the afternoon  why not move the race too much earlier

Frightnin' tunder 'n' lightnin' put back to 6pm. Trying to remember off the top of my head the derby winners that have contested this since the start of the 21st century.  Workforce, Kris Kin, Antony Van Dyk and one more I think. Golden Horn would have but scratched after heavy raindrops.

oh durrrrbrain, I've got it now. Anyone want to fill in the gap?

i like a few at decent prices in this type of race  and have also  backed broome each way ,could lead and gets the trip well although has a few pounds to find on the ratings but is consistent could lead  and should run his race

galileo magnifico

2mm of rain so far, decision on wonderful tonight running at 2-30pm.

Going G/F and only minimal rain forecast to race time. I can't see Wonderful Tonight running. Adayar 3/1 is big.

yeah not much rain forecast for today

backed broome each way ,could lead

yeah i see Broome setting a steady pace with Love not far behind - she's a guineas winner so have to think she will outpace the others at the end of the race

It looks like I might not follow my own advice FOYLES..

Adaya bidding to become the first since Galileo in 2001 to complete Derby/King George double and it would be very poignant given Galileo's recent demise.

Alternatively, it's ten years since Amy Winehouse passed away and she enjoyed a bit of Love

It has to be the 3 yr old improver Lone Eagle for me.

I think the Derby is best form on offer. 3/1 Adayar getting all that weight is very generous.
Only concern is Broome going a slow/steady pace which wouldn’t play into Adayar’s strengths.

It's the form triangle of Adayar/Hurricane Lane/Lone Eagle that is tripping me up. We know HL lost front shoes in the Derby but don't really know if that cost him those lengths. For Lone Eagle to then run so impressively in the Irish derby with HL subsequent thrashing of his rivals in France makes it very difficult to judge. Love should improve again back up to 12f although the jury is still out on her and she is short. The others I don't give a chance but respect the form they are bringing into the race. It's a top lineup, really looking forward to it and if someone gave me £20 I'd stick it on Lone Eagle. Frankie will go ahead of Lester Piggott if he wins, both legends of the sport. Much respect.

1st Adayar
2nd Lone Eagle

Love,Love,Love as the Beatles sang

There's nothing you can do that can't be done

Looking at the price of Lone Eagle tumbling... Frankie must have said something positive?

im with you foyles

looks like i'm alone but i think love is a cracking price now

nr wunderfull TONITE

I have been on Love every time she has run and dont think i will be changing my mind Today but far from confident.

Now the market has reopened…backed Mishriff ew 15/2

Shame about WT but I think they can map a lovely route to the Arc now.

To win Adayar may well have to make all the running - Broome won't be making it a test, Love and Mishriff will be waiting, Lone Eagle will probably try to do the same as in Ireland going for home early.

I don't like the Epsom Derby form.

Here I go again, I hear those trumpets blow again.

All aglow again, taking a chance on Love.

So five runners.  Pathetic.  Following four in the Eclipse.
They're racehorses so race them in the best races!

yes gone for love also with the smaller bet on ops selection

I do like the Epsom form but still feel Love will get the better of Adayar today, just do not believe Adayar will be at his best on this fast ground going around Ascot, so much so that I have laid Adayar in both win and place markets and backed Love to win and in f/c with Broome & Mishriff, Adayar to finish fourth and Lone Eagle fifth, ambitious perhaps but you have to take a view...!

Not betting just watching.  Too much doubt about ground, weight concession and race pace.
Can't for the life of me pick the race pacesetter/leader.  Pedestrian pace is very likely and thus a false run race.

And a saver on the Eagle win.

Money for Love came at 11 bells

Love not fit!!!

LAY

Changed my mind a million times on this race
Cheeky tenner on Broome for me
GL all

Love is all around; Mishriff less effective over 12f; Adayar Derby win inconclusive. If Broome is improving he'd surprise.

backed mishriff, 10/1 too big.

Same. Smashed on it each way.

Has racial correctness gone barmy? Even an ethnic rep is tipping in the King's game at Ascot. I'm gobsmacked!

Love will find it difficult to give this derby winner 8lbs. adayar for me

Laying adayar

gone adayar, should be a cracker .. GL

lURVE IS
finished

well done winners

hacks up, hope you saw the post luciano ..

Lots went wrong and he bolted in. Boom !

Credit to adayar

First time Love takes on proper horses......

Wd Derby Backers

Thought Mishriff would run by him especially as he was lit up early.

Fourth 2nd for me today lol

Considering how hard he pulled early he did well.

wd winners, gave back some of the Derby winnings, should have stayed loyal...!

Well done winners.

Amazing how certian horses run after the magic carrots have been sniffed by the authorities.

Certain

Broome poor horse why continue to whack it it looked knacked after that poor ride.

Love giving Derby winner 8lb



Probably will do better with
stronger pace too

Mishriff gave him decent race
gosden reckoned 1 1/4 miles
better for him.. He knew!

Love was over-lauded. A good win for Adayar. Shame Appleby was pinged and not present; the owner can remain in Dubai permanently for all I care.

O'Brien mentioned Love's weight just before the race.
There's your answer.

Well done Adayar, but I don't think it beat much today again.

The paddock expert thought love looked fitter

O brien knew it was heavier.


Adayar looks well developed for a 3yo
so the weight concession is handy

Adayar very impressive.  Will he and Basilica ever meet - good formlines between them and Mishriff now.

I didn't change my mind FOYLES, I just didn't have a bet.

1st horse race that ive actually enjoyed watching in ages, really was

Best horse won but Moore was filth yet again, a truly piss poor tactican

Agreed the best horse won, but ffs, get a life ref Moore eh?

Why? he is shocking, he never gave the horse any chance at all, a truly diabolical ride, yet again

Have a word with yourself man, are you laying Regal Reality tomorrow?

He was caught sleeping in my view.  He surely knew in running that Mishriff would have to come round wide, of him ( and everybody else ), so why didn't he force the issue himself and move out earlier while rounding the bend?  I thought it was a poor ride from him and I normally defend him on here.

Walofs.

  Agreed and if I was you I'd stop posting.

Next time that you post something useful will be the first time.

Brilliant winner and time backs it up, for me must go close in the Arc with ground no problem.
