The Weekend Winners crew return with a take a look at this weekend’s motion, in addition to offering some Royal Ascot ante-post angles…
Host Kate Tracey is joined by BetVictor’s Sam Boswell and Declan Rix of attheraces.com to pick their greatest bets for this weekend in addition to their picks forward of the Royal assembly…
The crew started the present with a take a look at Saturday’s Lester Piggott Fillies’ Stakes at Haydock, and so they disagreed over the probably end result…
At The Races’ Declan Rix…
“It’s a bonkers race. In terms of pace, I think it’s going to be a nicely-run race. Miss Cantik is blessed with natural pace and will go forward, with Night Sparkle keeping her honest, but I wanted a horse drawn low that likes to go forward and would enjoy a good gallop. For me, that’s Mistral Star – I think she’s brutally overpriced – I’d have her around the 7/1 mark.
“I simply assume this race units up actually properly, the quickening floor will go well with and she or he’s a filly by Frankel who actually likes to make use of herself. Going again as much as 12 furlongs with extra tempo to run at on a flatter monitor goes to go well with and we should not overlook her pedigree by Frankel out of Shirocco Star. Her dam was positioned in two Oaks as soon as upon a time and I feel she’s overpriced at 12/1.”
Host Kate Tracey…
“When this race first opened up I thought I’d get a great price on Night Sparkle, but it turns out a few people thought the same thing as me so she’s a 6/1 shot now. I can make a solid case for this filly after a cracking fun in the Group Three Bronte Cup on her reappearance, in a real scramble of a race. I think that was really likeable form as the winner of that race in the previous year did give her running to give that form some solidity.”
BetVictor’s Sam Boswell…
“I need to take a fly on probably the most unexposed within the area, Queen Of The Delight for John and Thady Gosden. Attention-grabbing, this horse. Her first run ever was actually disappointing at Newmarket however you’ll be able to put a line by means of that as she received a seven-runner race subsequent day trip at Leicester. 5 of the six that ran in opposition to her have all since received at various ranges.
“Her final start at Goodwood last season came on soft ground – which I don’t think was in the horse’s favour going up to one mile and four – but she still ran a really nice race. I wanted something that could step forward again and this trip is going to be absolutely ideal, I feel like there’s unfinished business. The Gosdens’ record with four-year-olds has been disappointing, but at the prices I felt it was a really strong each-way play.”
