I'm putting up Albert Einstein in the 3:10 at Newbury. A bit short, but it's a weak race, and I can't see anything beating him. Fingers crossed.
Report Whippin Piccadilly May 16, 2026 1:36 PM BST
Good luck FP. I'm going to take a swing at one in the Lockage Stakes. I thought Jonquil was quite impressive beating the useful yardstick Holloway Boy (who I backed) LTO. His record in this country at the 1 Mile trip reads 11 and I think there's more to come from him at this trip this season. The stable are in red hot form, he has course form and he enjoys fast going. At a double figure price I have to play.

Yes, he's been well found in the market today, Tangle. I noticed you had 2 winners and 2nd from your 3 suggestions last week. I'll ask you for one if Pauly is a no show again. Yeah, I looked at her too and I think Lost Boys has a huge chance today although the price is tight enough

I'm in the same boat as FP in that I'm not able to study the form on the 'improved' RP to the level required for me to be confident in placing bets. I can only use my notebook horses and watching replays to guide me. So I'll put Coppull up seeing as I believe he won with a fair bit in hand LTO even though the winning margin was short. Division was slow away that day so will be a big danger if getting away on terms. We probably need something at a double figure price so let's try and land one with the Wildcard. Stick your best outsiders up lads and I'll pick one out of your shortlist

Good luck today. I have one from my notebook at a double price today. Fouette in the 4.20 Carlise. She's been running in listed races and she has found them a touch too hot but she definitely has scope off her mark of 89 back in a handicap. She ran much better than her finishing position LTO and the handicapper has been rather kind and dropped her 2lb. Rosa Ryan booked up is a huge positive too. Take the fav out of the race and its a very open looking race.

For the wildcard I was thinking Maple in the last at Beverley. The Favourite is no good thing to repeat her win LTO and my selection has been running with credit on the Flat and over the jumps of a late and a repeat of his run here 2 runs back will see him go close. If anyone has one at a bigger price I'd be happy to use it

I've gone for Sparks Fly in the next at Epsom.

I'm going for one of the outsiders in the 5.07 Sandown. Macari needed his seasonal debut run and probably did too much out in front anyway. He left that run behind last time out running second to a an improving Sir Mark Prescott stayer who'll turn out much better than a class 4 handicapper by the end of the season. The last time Macari ran over C/D resulted in a win and he's only 2lbs higher than for last his win at Newbury. There's a fair bit of pace on here so you'll need to stay the trip well, something he'll do but which some of the others aren't guaranteed to do. 

A few others I like at fair prices. Copper Knight loves Chester and the old boy hasn't lost any of his pace, but his draw is off putting today. If he can break quickly and get a prominent position, he'll definitely out run his odds though.
And I've split a point between 2 in the 3.23 Chester Rastnet & Sea Founder. Both look like they can win nice races this season so I'm expecting both to run very well here

A few thoughts on Royal Ascot. I think you might see something a bit special from Bow Echo tomorrow, I honestly don't think we've seen the best of him yet. Although he's a bit too short for me to back. And even though Trawlerman hasn't had a recent run, I still expect him to serve it up to the favourite in the big one. When Venetian Sun won at Haydock last time out, she made me think of that strong travelling, classy sprinter Airwave. I will definitely use her in F/C & T/C with Coppull and probably Division. I do think Coppull won with a fair bit to spare at Ascot LTO so I'll probably put him up in the comp. The Royal Hunt Cup looks as competitive as ever but I can see Holloway Boy running a big one over a course he likes and on his preferred fast going. You'd ideally want a high draw in this race but interestingly, stall 4 has produced 2 winners in the last 10 running's of it. And Ebt's Guard who has the perfect draw, was unlucky (couldn't get a clear run at a vital time) in this race last year and has been working his way back into form

Thanks for taking part in the comp guys and I hope you all make a good few quid at Ascot this week. Cool

I've really enjoyed this year's Royal meeting despite finding only one winner thus far, and that was Alobayyah in the Kensington Palace Stakes on Wednesday.
