    I hate this meeting.

    Back Dettori blind or don't bother sinking your money into it.

    Did the horses' form not warrant him running in RA? :confused:

    You can't put a line through a few yeah, but if the race were run 100 times would Strad really win less than 40 of those runnings? I doubt it myself, so price is about right on that basis

    Agreed, but the drift is a worry. He should be shorter given his form.

    Can run anywhere he likes, a farce it went off 13/8, beaten arizona over 6f when he was only out for the spin doesn't warrant favouritism

    Why in gods name didn't you inform us before the race? We could've went in with a heavy goat lay of the day special

    Why didn't A'Ali go off 1/1000 given that we now know that it won the race. Awful aftertiming here.

    To criticise anyone for thinking Twomey would have a horse good enough for RA is nonsense. His form certainly warranted him running. Price is a different matter altogether.

    Both Sangarius and Roseman have form behind King of Comedy.

    Frankie Detorri has form and thats good enough for me.

    Sangarius, Star Catcher, Stradivarius treble - MAX bet. What can go wrong.

    That's some ride. Many other jockeys would have not have had the balls to hold his position once he got it, Donnacha on kings field yesterday is a prime example.

    How in gods name did you think Cape of Good Hope would win that. And you actually thought a Charlie Fellowes horse would be a danger at Royal Ascot????

    Fancy this myself and Aidan’s in the last which will be short for St Leger if it wins well.

    Fantastic ride from Frankie that, the horse was keen early doors and the gap was closing but the jockey powered him through, shows the greats to the minors and then the horse powers away!
