    This market is wide open with yesterday’s news about Battaash, there is also a rumour that Golden Pal suffered a slight setback and he’s drifted out to 5/1 with some markets.

    The time fur value is right now and there’s 2 that look well overpriced.

    Last years second Equilateral and ubettabelieveit who has a great look to his form and could keep progressing

    Ubettabelieveit 25/1 EW
    Equilateral 25/1 EW

    It appears Bataassh sustained his injury a few weeks ago. Just wonder if the public could have been told about an injury to such a high profile horse a bit quicker.

    Think it was further back than that Cork wasn’t it. Sustained it over winter I read

    Sorry to hear that FF. That’s the point. As Frenchy says, this injury was sustained at least two months ago. And it is clearly not just a little niggle that will clear up in a day or two. It is a fairly serious injury.

    Really poor to only tell punters now. When will trainers ever learn? If you keep treating punters with contempt they can find plenty of other things to bet on instead.

    Agree with these points. FF has been turned over, and I’m sure many others have been too. The ‘Proles’ treated like mushrooms as usual. The Elliott affair, with people in racing preaching about a new era of “transparency”, was just paying lip service.

    Wesley ward has confirmed that Golden Pal will miss Ascot and there’s a rumour today that Battaash is going to be retired

    it would depend if the race was on turf or dirt I guess

    On turf the S would mean soft on S sloppy

    But both those races were on the dirt as far as I can see

    Looks like battaash will likely make the race after all

    Battaash entered

    Looks a pretty weak renewal in all honesty

    If battaash runs to the level of his 2 seconds to blue point or last year its hard to see what could beat him

    Kevin Ryan the latest to fail to tell anyone anything, and treat punters like mushrooms. Glass Slippers out. Poor show. Again.

    Winter Power 7-1 ew. Backed after last run and trainer comments. Thought she’d have an ew squeak getting the weight. And Battaash wasn’t a definite at the time if i remember correctly.
