Ascot 25th and 26th

Some top class racing from Ascot over the next couple of days.

Look forward to watching Tryst in the opener with Ryan Moore on board, plus Shamandar, they say "the bigger the field the bigger the cert"?

Remember Rip Van Winkle vs Delegator on Sat.

good punting!

And don't forget there is a PA at Wolves today.

Enjoy

It`s a pity the big race will have only 4 runners...

Not to forget JJ on the Sunday 27th!

Two top bets today at Haydock.....

Hi Wally would have to agree with you, sorry I did not have time to see you on my flying visit, but will catch you soon, all the best to you and the better half.

so who's out of the QE II for tomorrow then ?

not sure who is out Don, but

RIP/DEL/MASTER/AQLAAM/ZACINTO should be the runners

MASTERCRAFTSMAN will run in the Sony-sponsored Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot on Saturday only if stablemate Rip Van Winkle misses the Group 1 event, trainer Aidan O'Brien said on Thursday.

A total of five runners were declared for the mile feature with O'Brien reducing his hand to justtwo entries, leaving it increasingly likely that Rip Van Winkle will attempt to make all in the absence of any pacemaker.

O'Brien said on Thursday: "Mastercraftsman is in the race in case, for any reason, Rip Van Winkle does not run.

Cheers Hibby, you are on the ball "again"
