When I saw Azure Blue for the first time as a 4 year old at Newmarket I was blown away by how much bigger and stronger she was than as a 3 year old. I missed out on her next time at York cuz I’m an idiot but will not be missing out this time. She reminds me quite a bit like Alpha Centauri, the brilliant Harrington filly.
I’m not dismissing Shaquille’s chances, his incredible Ascot performance has put a dent in the amount of faith I have in Azure Blue but she got into my head early and has stayed there ever since.
After Royal Ascot have to stick with Shaquille.
The more I know the less I understand.
Another dismal Group 1 turnout albeit a good race, field now down to eight.
The more I know the less I understand.
I prefer the smaller but quality field over having 10+ back markers in there causing trouble in running.
Hopefully course form will edge it for Azure Blue and the icing on the cake is the jockey.
Yes, really!
I rang him this morning and told him there was decent money on this one.
Seriously he has been on his game this week a good festival at Ayr and a blinding finish on the big stage recently.Unbelievable just like Ascot except Rossa let him tank on whereas Oisin took a pull. What a horse.

Wd winners. He’s got some engine pulling that hard and still keep going. The age trends i mentioned in my preview still strong.
That horse has to be something special, having fluffed the start and making that mid-race surge and then still having plenty left in the tank.
It’s by no means a vintage crop of sprinters at the moment, but Shaquille could be special.
The way he tanked to the front after the start was pretty impressive.
The more I know the less I understand.
Shaquille is a superstar. Does everything wrong yet still makes class opponents look ordinary.
He’s a nutcase of a horse. Messes the start up, tugs his way to the front and still runs away from them. Incredible talent to win like that doing so much wrong.
