I agree with what I’ve read on here about Barney Roy and I think he’s
over priced at 6/1 with Ladbrokes. Japan is a class act, but again
I agree that he may not have the race run to suit. I think Barney Roy’s change of
pace with be decisive and he gets my vote.Umbrellas are up at ascot
Had a few quid on addeybb (8.0) and mehdaayih (18.0) on the exchange
Lord North is my big fancy on Wednesday, and I’ve taken 8-1. I think that he could surprise here.
Headman looks a great bet here at 9/1. Half the river Thames is expected to fall on the track at around 3pm which will favour him if it does arrive in time though good ground is absolutely fine I believe if the rain doesn’t come. This horse has been seriously under rated here and can win, I think he has group 1 winner written all over him.
Was only going to have the one serious bet today but with this one it’s now two.
I’m hoping the rain can stay away until after this race for Barney Roy’s sake..
Gaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
Barney for me like q dewberry of you guys, think the extra distance could bring out the improvement needed
Absolute procession that was
Can imagine there will be plenty of money for elarqam now
Not sure how strong the race was with addeybb not getting his ground and japan/headman/barney Roy running no race at all
I was surprised frankie didnt try to make the running on mehdaayih
A Group 1 at Royal Ascot where the winner won the Cambridgeshire and the runner up won the Lincoln.
I am guessing that has never happened before.
Not a good race atall. I dont expect that form to stand throughout the season, why did frankie abandon lord north? Purely because he didnt think hed win or something else?
Japan got very warm, missed the break and looked badly done for toe, he should have just made the running on him when he had to chase him into 3rd, but he knows better im sure there was a reason
Everything else sort of ran a level race, doubt the winner ran above 115, everything else around 108-110 In my books
Roger charlton cant get them ready for a G1. Time after time.
Don’t think that’s fair on the winner Ham , he won as he wanted after sitting of the pace , I took the 10s last night as I believed he was still improving and I was always going to take Japan on
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
The old Sheik Maktoum Al Maktoum had some legends of the sport in the past and great to see his son race them again and get a big race win.
Well done backers, it went to the horse with solid form going into it. I personally think that will go down as a poor Group1 over time though, Barney Roy and Addeybb have been travelling and Japan and Headman were first time out. I don’t think Lord North will win a group 1 again, it was a disappointing renewal for me but that could happen at the moment
