A mixed day so far with Royal Trooper letting us down, on the plus side however our first Ante Post selection for Royal Ascot (Bridgetown) traded down to 12 before the off for a trade and a 1.3 pt profit and on yesterdays thread (comments) Wooton Basset traded from 28 down to 16.5 also before the off for another 1.3 pt profit.
More pluses in that Zoffany who was beaten when in receipt of 6lbs by our selection in the Golden Jubilee (Bewitched) ran very well behind Frankel which could help our effort to trade with Bewitched (8.8 needed)and Frederick Engels has just won to boost the chances of Shumoosh, who was dropping in price steadily anyway (2.16 needed)
In the 8.00 at Brighton tonight I think that the improving Foxtrot Alpha will trade for us he is in decent form and backed at 9/2 (5.5) looking for a ly off price in running of 3.35 for a 1.3 pt all green screen or a lay off price of 3.65 for a 1 pt all green profit.
