PRICELESS 20/1
Clive Cox had winner of race last year think he can do it again she is a improving horse won at Bath off top weight a impressive performance.At this moment still not group one horse but there no doubt can take this race
May 9, 2017 at 21:28 #1300196Fortunately I managed to take the 16s offered about Marsha at the start of the season and to be honest I think she’ll prove hard to beet if she turns up in A+ condition.
SkyBet have priced up Cotai Glory (last year’s runner-up) at 33/1 which may be over-generous given he was very unfortunate in the Palace House and the trainer believes he’s better than ever.
May 11, 2017 at 00:12 #1300317Yes, I even think Marsha is the fastest 5f horse on the planet.
As always she needs to come from the rear, so it all depends on the sniper to find the right gaps for her..May 14, 2017 at 10:15 #1300795Backed Signs of Blessing to win this @ 25’s & 14’s yesterday. He just does not stay 6F but the way he won yesterday giving 11 lbs to Profitable suggests he will by vying to be Europes Top 5F horse this year.
This race was confirmed as the target after the race, and if running is the one the all have to get past.
Tried to get on with Betbright this morning at 25’s but bets were declined
May 14, 2017 at 15:13 #1300833The ground has to be the big worry for Signs Of Blessing; he’s a much better horse when racing on a softer surface and you’d have to say it’s unlikely to be a soft ground Royal meeting 2 years running. If the heaven’s opened on the day I would lump on but that’s a really significant ‘if’.
Acapulco fans however, will surely be hoping for completely different conditions and after that win today she’s shortened to as short as 3/1 with StanJames – but come on, that’s a mighty overreaction.
3 fillies now at the head of the market.

I think he is a better horse on Good ground myself Charles, but yes fast ground would be a big concern.
I would love to see him win a big one this year. A write up below of yesterdays race
May 25, 2017 at 01:42 #1302007Lady Aurelia is gearing up http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/articles/221727/lady-aurelia-continues-royal-ascot-preparations
Best Wishes
SilkMay 25, 2017 at 17:56 #1302056The Lady’s brisk pace will be ideal for Marsha..
May 25, 2017 at 23:32 #1302084Youd be interested to know how Wesley ranks Lady Aurelia and Acapulco’s chances, on the basis that they are set to both head to this race, the latter now in the care of AOB.
May 29, 2017 at 11:19 #1302543Very happy with win by PRICELESS in temple stakes hope she do it again here at Ascot.Improving all the time
May 30, 2017 at 00:24 #1302640Lady Aurelia is the quickest thing I’ve ever seen over 5f.
She, on fastish ground, will break the track record
May 31, 2017 at 13:45 #1302783..she’s the fastest until Marsha overtakes her.
June 5, 2017 at 05:43 #1303531Anymore views on this one?
So please confirm that Marsha is the best horse in here, or kiss my a..June 5, 2017 at 10:11 #1303541Anymore views on this one?
So please confirm that Marsha is the best horse in here, or kiss my a..Lady Aurelia is faster going at a canter.
June 5, 2017 at 12:26 #1303550We don’t know exactly before.
Excuse me all, I shouldn’t have written this,
my nerves are quite wrecked recently..June 5, 2017 at 13:13 #1303559I think on a good day Marsha takes this, as I am not sure of that, I rather side with Profitable @15 who I am sure will run his race and get at least a place.
June 5, 2017 at 13:43 #1303565Charles and hein with you 100 per cent on MARSHA.

I was at Newmarket on 2000 Guineas day when she won the Palace House Stakes and she looked a million dollars in the paddock, outstanding..and yet.. nobody on ITV racing picked her out, Francesca was scouting around the paddock and never gave her a mention, it was all about Washington DC.
Sir Mark Prescott and the Elite Racing Club have a real live contender on their hands to take this race. She lumped home 9:7 that day and will feel let lose in the Kings Stand with just 9:1 to carry. Muthmir has improved no end since running virtually last in the same race and could be the one to take her on, if any, because his run in that was beyond bad and he proved that by hacking up at Chantilly yesterday.
I wish I had rushed off to take her early price on Marsha but will settle with around 5/1 generally available, she will need a clear passage to come with a flying finish but she will find no problems once she gets her head in front.
This filly will put the smile back on your face hein
she is the best in this by far.
