Midnight Caller Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 10 hours ago, Lightning Blue said: The Gold Cup is run and Won at Royal Ascot. 🏆 KYPRIOS wins for a 2nd time (after 2022 victory) for Coolmore and Ryan Moore. A great comeback from nasty joint Infection that derailed his 2023 season. Aidan O'Brien once again getting the trophy. From the King this time instead of the queen. Vauban every chance in 4th place. Doubt he will be attacking Melbourne Cup again on that form. In an exact replay of the 2nd Day Selections getting the money Mardi picks up a cool 4 winners, MC with 3 , and LB 'Going the Distance' picks up a 10-1 and 13-1 double win. with 'King's Gambit' a bit unlucky not to make it 3 in the 6th race. Craigie has no Gold Cup joy, still studying hard for tonight and the Saturday finale . By all accounts, Vauban is heading back down under for the MC. The extra 1/2 mile at that level probably was a furlong or two too far. If he gets the right conditions he's right in it this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'OPERA SINGER' leading them up in race 3, and run over late into 2nd place , taking my few quid with it. Fat Lady sung to early lol 🤣😂 MC and Mardi both nailing the winner there in 'Porta Fortuna' taking the Group 1 Coronation event. and completing 3 winners each from the 7 races for Day 4 Royal Ascot. 'ZIGGY' in fine Raceplace style 😆 , flashing home late for 3rd in his race 4, but too late for LB to hit the winning board, finally came out with just one win with the French Raider 'CALANDAGAN' waltzing away with Race 6 by 6 lengths. Onwards to Final day tonight and a right Royal finishing flurry Edited June 22 by Lightning Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Blue Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 The King will be preparing to board the Royal carriage very soon to head up the Ascot straight , hopefully to see these winners 🤣 Ryan Moore could win 3 today at Royal Ascot . Ryan should be winning the last race of the carnival (Race 7) with QUEENSTOWN with there being beautiful location's in both NZ and homestate Tassie bearing that name. sounds nice and regal for the finale too 🏆🏇🫅 Race 1/ Age of Gold Race 2/ Middle Earth Race 3/ Mitbaahy / Mill Stream Q in the QE II Jubilee group 1. Race 4/ Never So Brave Race 5/ Ferrous Race 6/ Hand Of God (Maradona ⚽ would of been all over that one 😆) Race 7/ Queenstown Best bet 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curious Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Thanks for doing this mardi. Added interest to my enjoyment of the meeting and while I mostly watched a couple of races live during the night, also something fun to look forward to checking results in the morning. Didn't always get your price but backed all your top selections where they were at value for a tidy profit, capped off by the nice win of Khaadeem last night. 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But every single rating had no inclusion of barrier, jockey, trainer, placings, weight, gear on/off, water walker treatment, class of race, track / distance / track condition stats, stakes won etc. They are just a whole lot of white noise to me that most punters base their assessment on - and therefore impacts available odds significantly.

Dancing Show Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 (edited) Very happy with my last day haul, especially Isle of Jura and some nice place divvies. Kikkuli I thought was excellent money. Edited June 23 by Dancing Show 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
