Royal Ascot 2022 | The best bets of the third day
The third day of Royal Ascot on Thursday offers the chance for two very popular results with Stradivarius bidding to emulate Yeats by winning a fourth Golden Cup, and Reach For The Moon is set to start a favorite with odds for owner The Queen in Hampton. Judicial betting.
I hope both horses are up to par, but MAGICAL LAGOON may be the best bet of the day at the Ribblesdale Stakes.
This well-educated daughter of Galileo, the half-sister of King George’s winning novelist, must have had a great chance at her second reappearance at Navan (1m2f) in late April, when she had just been hit in the head. by the later third Irish guinea. and Oaks’ fourth concert hall.
This form has also been reinforced by third-placed Cairde Go Deo, who has since won two races on the list, and the fourth, Tranquil Lady, won a Group Three next time before finishing sixth at Epsom. .
Always in the forefront in Navan, Magical Lagoon fought bravely and, as a pedigree, would have to adapt a lot to this distance step. She is the most highly regarded runner on the field, and while Sea Silk Road seems open to many improvements for William Haggas’ team, she will have to find some after a narrow, disappointing Eternal Pearl defeat. and Goodwood.
Among other races, a small interest in three highly competitive handicaps starting with DEAUVILLE LEGEND in the King George V Handicap is advised.
There’s a lot of chance here, but James Ferguson’s castrate, a lightweight runner, did a good job of winning for the first time in Windsor in late April before which he had excelled in the paddock.
That race lasted over a mile and a quarter, but the son of Sea The Stars (from a Hernando mare who has also produced the very useful Sea La Rosa) looks set to fit in with two more stages here.
The bare bones of the Windsor shape may be nothing to get excited about, but the impression was more compelling, and a note of 89 may seem lenient in the future.
Later, WHOPUTFIFTYINYOU could be hard to beat when looking to maintain his unbeaten record against 29 rivals in the Britannia Handicap.
It’s hard to beat this improved foal whose last win at the Silver Bowl in Haydock has been heavily driven by runner-up Mighty Ulysses, a tight fifth in Tuesday’s St James’s Palace Stakes, while the third six-length Outgate won in Chester last Saturday.
Whoputfiftyinyou received a £ 10 raise for this success, but that now looks good inside his compass and as long as a high tie near the stands is not a disadvantage, he can win again.
On a line through Outgate, KOY KOY has no chance of having more chances. Andrew Balding’s foal, a wide-margin winner at Newbury last September and with 4 pounds better with the Saga re-opposing by a one-and-a-quarter-length defeat this year (7f) earlier, stumbled on the start when he was second at Outgate in Chester in his comeback.
Koy Koy, from stop eight, is drawn on the opposite side of the field at Whoputfiftyinyou and the shape of the previous course is always positive.
Finally, OUZO could be worth a little interest in every way in the closure of Buckingham Palace Handicap.
Formerly coached by Richard Hannon, the six-year-old had a good start for Jamie Osborne when he fell down a neck in Rebel Territory in Sandown at last month’s Whitsun Cup.
With 2 pounds for that effort, he hit a 2-pound mark higher when he finished fourth behind Real World in last year’s Royal Hunt Cup at that meeting despite not enjoying the best of racing.
These seven stays may be on the side of Ouzo, who has run mostly a mile since he won this trip in his youth, but placing cheeks for the first time could encourage him. and it should. be running hard in the closing stages from a grandstand draw.
According to Sandown evidence, a change of stables seems to have been beneficial.
