Amazing stuff Graham!
Love the bookie bashingJune 13, 2026 at 00:54 #1768786Well done Graham you’ve done it again
Keep going for the Royal Ascot compy.Hi Andre..I’ve been busy with my nose in an Adult Learning course which
brings you up to date with all the new technology going on..I’m lucky to have Christopher who is in cyber security at his job but I wanted to learn more about all the new updates myself so I don’t keep bothering him….getting there
slowly lol 😂Have a good weekend all and looking forward to the Royal Ascot competition next week..my favourite
I need to improve on my Epsom effort though. 
Also good luck in the Daylight ..

Nick..hope all is well and that we can sort all those Godolphin horses out next week starting with Notable Speech Speech..cant wait to see him again.
I have a feeling Godolphin will be back with a bang 💥 🐎 at Ascot.Good luck..fingers crossed…Jac
xThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...June 13, 2026 at 10:37 #1768818Sounds like a good/interesting course Jac. Is this an in-person course or online? Hope everyone is good in your world.
I have all my selections in for the comps, with a busy week ahead still to come, with the Royal Ascot comp to look forward to. I’m not sure what to think about the Godolphin comp – I’m sure I will use my magical five swaps, for June, for the meeting.
Good Luck with all bets and comp selections!
June 13, 2026 at 13:37 #1768837I put this in the Royal Ascot Thread, but I didn’t want any Meydans
to miss it. So here it is……So the one I was on about was Two Tribes. I think he’s very much at home
at Ascot and won the Moet and Chandon International Handicap here about this
time last year (albeit that was over 7f). In October last year he had another
run here. Problem was he was drawn out in the car park (stall 18) and was at
the tail of the field for most of the race. Over the last couple of furlongs
he made serious headway to be a running on 5th at the end. The 1st 3 home
were all single figure stalls. Hopefully he won’t find himself with a mountain
to climb from a bad draw but he’s very well worth a punt at the current 25s.Two Tribes, 25/1 various bookies.
June 13, 2026 at 16:27 #1768849Thanks for the heads up on Two Tribes Graham
Hope you got on before everyone lumps on..lol 🤣 we know you did..
We’ll all be off to Hollywood with Frankie if he wins..
x JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...June 13, 2026 at 16:39 #1768850Yes Andre it was an in person IT course at my local Adult Education college and it ran for 16 weeks in all really informative..feel a lot more confident navigating around my phone and computer.
Had a couple of nice winners in the comps today both Godolphin and they’re out in force at Royal Ascot next week.
Well done with The Joker today he deserved that and I akways follow Jane Chapple-Hyam at Newmarket when she has a runner.Good luck in the Godolphin Fantasy Comp next week..hoping for some Bonus Swaps to appear as there are lots of runners and perhaps a Bonus Race.
I’m currently 195th with about 5830 Points..I’ve been using my monthly swaps and only have 2 x left for Royal Ascot so hence hoping there will be some Bonuses.
It’s a funny old competition this year but slowly getting into the swing of it…too late I think
but soldiering on.Best of luck in the comps today..keep bashing those bookies..x
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...June 13, 2026 at 19:19 #1768854I had made a list of swaps for today Jac, but the racing was well started before
I remembered to change my stable. I did change it but I have the feeling that the
40 minutes before a race starts may catch me out quite a bit. I’ll have to wait
and see how careful they are with their checking. I messed up the 1st month, I didn’t
use my swaps so I’m playing catch up. I’ve got the Royal Ascot Godolphins marked out
so we’ll see how well that goes. Good Luck all at Ascot on Tuesday
June 13, 2026 at 20:19 #1768856I did exactly the same Graham and saved my first month’s swaps thinking we only had 5 x swaps for the whole of the competition
I think the penny has dropped now and I have used a couple of swaps this week with 2 x left for Royal Ascot..hope it’s enough and we might possibly get Bonus Swaps next week…hope so.
Good luck next week. Jac.
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...June 14, 2026 at 14:10 #1768869OMG- how on earth do you have over 5K points Jac – I only have 1,240!!
I have a lot of work to do. I used my free swaps in May, and I’m pretty sure I used my additional bonus swaps too. Oh well – I will keep plugging away.I need a lot of help in the Daylight Cup, as I am well behind in points.
Good Luck with the Ascot comp and Godolphin.
June 14, 2026 at 14:37 #1768871Andre: I think a lot of American horses are gaining points in Graded races and being missed..I was looking at the leader of the competition Blue Point and he/she has over 10,000 points and has been through 93 horses.🫣
I have started using my monthly swaps regularly in the hope they might award 5 bonus swaps for Royal Ascot but as yet nothing happening…watch this space.
I have a very strong feeling Godolphin’s luck is on the up after some nice performances yesterday especially City Queen and Inner City Blues..this will be a good Ascot for them coming out of a very barren start to the season…
Come on the boys in blue 
Best of luck in the Royal Ascot comp next week and the Daylight with plenty of weeks to run so no need to panic…yet🤣
Jac xThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...June 15, 2026 at 01:17 #1768911How on earth could they have used 93 horses already…..
what am I missing? The person in second has used 101…. I don’t get it. Does it make sense to you Jac?Good Luck with all bets and comp selections
June 15, 2026 at 17:49 #1768942More Thunder 6/1
Overpass 6/1
Gstaad 11/2
Nahraan 6/1Ante post bets for 1st day at Ascot
June 16, 2026 at 02:09 #1768989Of course, now Godolphin gives us swaps for Royal Ascot – after I made my swaps for the week. Typical
June 16, 2026 at 08:23 #1768993Me too Andre 🫣 I did them last night after thinking we wouldn’t get any bonus swaps
Would have been nice if they didn’t wait until the day the festival begins to declare the Bonus swaps…Once again it’s those in ‘tbe know’ that are leading the competition. They won’t be caught unless the Bonus Races are intruduced and we get a chance to win 200 Bonus points.
So frustrating..I agree.
Anyway at least we have sone decent racing to concentrate on this week..Best of luck to all of us and enjoy the Royal Ascot compy..

Darren..Good luck with your bets especially Nahraan who I’m backing today.
Expect
2 30 – Notable Speech
to romp home in the 2.30 danger has to be the talented Opera Ballo.Third time I have chosen Asfoora as my NAP today and hoping the ground stays on the Firm side…
3.40 – ASFOORA **NAP** ❤️
Just think this race has been her target all the way and the fact Oisin Murphy has not deserted her a positive for me. Hoping there is no more rain today.Good luck with your Nap Night Raider Andre by my favourite stallion Dark Angel he has a really good chance today but I have to stick with Asfoora one more time and hope the rain holds off.

Best day of the meeting
Have fun..I’m backing all my selections in the Comp today (win and EW) ..bash those bookies…
Darren, Graham, Andre and Nick
