Ken the paddock expert

KEN couldn't find a pebble alone on a beach

Its how they look at the start that matters and the fav looked sweaty and edgy.

The crossed noseband came off in the stalls

That was Zoe from atr every race. Fav likeliest, 2nd fav the biggest danger, and 3rd fav EW chance.

Statistically accurate I suppose

Ken should take the meeting off. It's Royal Ascot FFS. Of course they all look great.

Some chance.
He has one foot on the gravy train and will not step off

While we are on about stating the obvious.
Adel M oozing confidence in all the favourites usually short priced whenever she is on.

puke Harvey fav looks absolutely outstanding at the start,min later fav awah with sweat no chance,
puke 4 time yesterday creaming if your not drawn high might as well go home cant win, taking to Murphy at start in buck hand icap drawn 7, GOOD CHANCE here oisin ?

ITV coverage is just a 4hr pishtake out of anyone with an ounce of punting knowledge

BBC "coverage" of racing not any better
On sports bit this morning that Hollins bloke said that Aiden O Brien had RIDDEN his 100th RA winner yesterday, and then about a bet of 100k on Scandinavia yesterday at 5/2 had by a lucky punter...firstly, not sure 5/2 was ever available, unless Ante Post, returned 11/8, secondly, obviously a pro punter, not some lucky punter landing a multiple
Obviously got no dedicated Horse Racing people any more, just getting a junior to knock up some text to read out


Surprised they even squeezed any sport in, with all the fawning over Andy Burnham this morning

The strangest thing you'll see today is Dave Orton in Royal Ascot clobber! Nap!

Freddie parrot face lives on in Orton and seb aunders

If any Savile Row tailors read the forum, there must be a huge market for evening dress incorporating ice packs like Formula One uses. Fans in top hats too (less for the F1 drivers!).

I couldn't wear all of that clobber in this weather.....sod that

Reg -Simon Nott's report yesterday (as Wingerwanger)  said "OK, so like London buses, no sooner had the firm got a chunk of the first two days’ losses back, they were asked for and accepted a bet that could put them right back in it or pretty much have them level, not in this race but the Gold Cup, £300,000 – £120,000 Scandinavia."
Could be a City type to who £120000 is the same as £50 to most of us .
Off topic -what do those who queue to enter at 10.30 do until about 14.00?

Intrigued to know who is paying Ken.  No disrespect to the fella. 
I can see he is employed by ITV Racing and Wiliam Hill Radio.  Nobody listens to William Hil Radio, so they can't be throwing much at him.  So how much are ITV paying him, when nobody is taking any notice of a thing he says. 

If he comes out and says I liked the look of the 40/1 shot, and it bolts up.  Take it all back but thats not happening.

Cheers Manoleeds, yeah looks like the 120k bet on Scandinavia at 5/2 was genuine, I was questioning more the "lucky punter" tag, which suggests someone having a fiver acca on 6 horses and winning big, not a high roller having, as you say, a normal bet

Anuver fred on Ken

I think they said Starsports layed 200k / 275k Precise. !!
