    Loving seeing Love been declared for the POW. The distance might be a bit short but the ground is ideal and she had the speed to win a Guineas.

    All-in all it's shaping up to be a brilliant week of racing.

    PP offering a free €5 bet on 2:30 race tomorrow. Anything other than Palace Pier (currently 4/9) in with a chance of winning it?

    Don't think so, he's 2 from 2 this year.

    Order Of Australia has some top class form at a mile and is still open to improvement at the trip plus the Australia's improve with age and all that still wouldn't be enough. Somehow it's hard to imagine Aidan having him revved up against a bit of a monster on his first outing this year.

    Lope Y Fernandez ran a stinker on the Soft ground behind Palace Pier in the Lockinge. If he's not fubared he has a good chance of finishing 2nd on this much better ground.

    10/1 w/o Palace Pier is probably the best place for the free fiver

    A bit of a joke they chose that race considering it has a 4/9 fav!

    My free fiver will go on Sir Busker. Into 18/1 now so not loads of value but has decent Ascot form and will like the ground. Favourite looks solid but you'd have to take a bit of a swing.

    Aside from that I think Bullace might be overpriced in the St. James Palace. Only beaten a length behind both Mostahdaf and Highland Avenue last time and those two are single figure odds. Worth a few quid at 40/1 4 places with Paddy.

    The other one I had my eye on today was Dalton Highway for Dermot Weld in the Ascot Stakes but some of the shine is taken off that with the price falling dramatically overnight. Still available at 16s with Bet 365 but the question is whether to take the better price with them or play the extra places with PP. Paddy playing 6 places but now as short as 11/1 so I think I'll chance the 16s 4 places Bet 365.

    Still a free bet is a free bet. They do one every saturday, you don't even have to match it.

    When you go to place a bet it gives you a tickbox for the stake for a free bet.

    If LA BARROSA hadn't run in the Irish 2000 what price would he be today, 7,8/1?
    Think 20/1 with 4 places is huge on this ground.

    Has Battash lost this race twice before? Wouldn’t be going big on him

    I can’t let Ornate (3:40) go off at 250/1 (4places) without a bet. I’d just be raging if he placed and didn’t take him at that price. Shouldn’t be in this company in one sense and form this year wouldn’t give any hope.

    However he can put in one superb performance a year and a repeat of his excellent run in good wood last year (neck behind glass slippers, 2-3L behind battash) would give him a place prospect. Probably finish last and at that price that’s to be expected, but just in case his one big performance this year occurs today, I’ll take my chance.

    Jason weaver is some clown from looking at that performance his verdict was that Battaash will be "impossible to beat at Goodwood"
