14:30 – Mountain Breeze
Day 4 of Royal Ascot 2024 gets underway on ITV Racing here with the Group 3 Albany Stakes for juvenile fillies over six furlongs. MOUNTAIN BREEZE is unbeaten in two starts for Godolphin and Charlie Appleby and has looked really good in victories at Newmarket. She was a short price on debut and won going away and then did the same on her second start when hitting the line strongly. She’s a big price here for me and there is a chance she didn’t even enjoy the undulations at HQ.
15:05 – Inisherin
Up in class here for the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup for three-year-olds over six furlongs. I’m all over INISHERIN here for Kevin Ryan and Tom Eaves. The 2000 Guineas sixth dropped back in trip for the Sandy Lane at Haydock and while Vandeek flopped he was in control throughout the whole event. I love the fact he will hit the line hard and he can easily make all.
15:45 – Porta Fortuna (each-way)
Another belter in the Group 1 Coronation Stakes for three-year-old fillies over a mile. PORTA FORTUNA has had little publicity before this event with all the talk about Opera Singer, Elmalka and Ramatuelle with Oisin Murphy now up. But the 1000 Guineas runner-up is super tough and has loads of ability having also chased home Hard to Justify in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies’ Turf. I just feel the selection is uncomplicated and she’s a terrific each-way bet for trainer Donnacha O’Brien.
16:25 – Marhaba The Champ (each-way)
Back in handicap company for the Duke of Edinburgh over just about a mile and a half. MARHABA THE CHAMP is a very hard horse to predict and will be long odds but he’s just the type to pop up and run well in a race like this. What the Kevin Ryan inmate needs is a strong gallop and he’ll get that here as he does so often when successful at York. Rossa Ryan is on top and a mark of 96 is not impossible if he’s on a going day. A few quid each-way.
17:05 – Flight of Fancy (each-way)
Here’s the Sandringham, a fillies’ handicap for three-year-olds over a mile. FLIGHT OF FANCY stays well and might hit the frame for Aidan O’Brien. The daughter of Galileo has only had four starts and missed a few chances on heavy ground suggesting this surface will suit. She’s yet to win but was second in a handicap at the Curragh last time when the drop to this trip seemed to suit. She’s gearing up for a win and it might be here at decent odds. An each-way bet.
17:40 -Theory Of Tides (each-way)
Now the Group 2 King Edward VII Stakes, often known as the Ascot Derby, for three-year-old colts and geldings over 1m4f. THEORY OF TIDES is very interesting here for John & Thady Gosden and Kieran Shoemark. The unbeaten son of Galileo who cost 500,000 guineas was well on top at Yarmouth last time and stamina seems to be his strong suit. On paper, he has a mountain to climb here, but he might surprise a few and is an each-way suggestion.
18:15 – Jubilee Walk
The Palace of Holyrood Handicap for three-year-olds over 5f. JUBILEE WALK is up 7lb for a win at York but he’s progressed well with every run and enjoyed dropping to 5f at a faster track than this when scoring last time. On that basis, I suspect this should suit him more and he’s got a huge chance for Oisin Murphy and James Ferguson.
So best of luck and pray for Yeeehaaas. You hear me Paddy?
