Tuesday looks exciting throughout .
Century Dream intrigues me as a horse with upside in the 1st the Queen Anne. Going to use him with Lightning Spear, Rhododendron and Benbatl.
24 2-year-olds in the second makes for a total crapshoot. The 9 Dubai Legacy would be my choice if forced to make one. Have to think he got the name because they are very high on him.
Lady Aurelia should finally get firm ground again tonight and that should allow her to cruise like she did last year.
Wootton comes out of a tough race and beat the 8 last time. Taking a shot on him at a good price in the St James Palace.
Dannyday will be my take a swing at horse in the 2 1/2 mile Ascot H., total guessing game on who wants to go that far.
I like Monarchs Glen with Yucatan in the last. Tough spotting last time for Monarchs Glen and Yucatan might have hated the soft ground last time.

Thanks for the PPs Hoop!
I’m with RobMac on the First. Lightning Spear and Century Dream, with Deauville and Recoletos to fill out exactas. Lightning Spear runs in all the big GIs, with some favorable outcomes. Draws well and should be forwardly placed. Century Dream does look to have upside. Good luck!

Watching the coverage on NBC Sports. If that first race didn’t speak to what racing is all about, I don’t know what does. Brits doing it right. Trainer takes handicap/Listed horse bred by her mom, gets it in peak form, wins Group I at Royal Ascot in front of Queen and country. Post-race coverage was fantastic!

That's crazy. 23 two yr olds, out of the gates...divide into two packs, and I have no idea where any of my selections are. Crazy ! (but in a weird way fascinating)....British racing would set me to drink

3rd- GI King’s Stand S. 5f
Trying these three underneath in exactas with favorites, and in Omni wagers, in case favorites falter.
6- Kachy (8-1) in career form, can go with these. 11- Mabs Cross (15-1) improving 4yo not out of this. 14- Different League (30-1) 3yo gets weight, will need it for O’Brien/Moore.

Is Lady Aurelia done? I understand she's kept good company but she also hasn't been the same since last summer in the UK. Wonder what Ward does with her now?
Also, isn't the Queen Anne the "feature" race of the day? Wonder why it starts the program?

4th- GI St. James Palace S. 1mi.
7- Tip Two Win (4-1) hasn’t run a bad one, improving with every run. This is a tough group to separate.
Exa- 7/All

5- Ascot Stakes 2 1/2mi.
10- Mirsaale (20-1) ten time winner (8yo) still fits at this level. 11- Look My Way (15-1) 4yo has found a home in these marathons. 18- Sam Missile (15-1) moves up in class and distance off a win over the course. 20- Cour de Lion (7-1) 10 for 19 in the exacta over hurdles and on the flat.
Four horse exacta box, and 10,11,18 Omnis.

6th- Wolferton S. (Listed) 1 1/4mi.
4- Mirage Dancer (7-1) enters off a big win at Goodwood for Michael Stoute. 9- Laraaib (5-1) second in a G3 last out, logical. 7- Euginio (15-1) consistent sort fits well, at a price. 10- Morando (10-1) hard to use on top, but always around at the finish.
Exa- 4,9/4,7,9,10
Wouldn’t be upset if The Queen takes it with Fabricate.

Didn't do much from a wagering standpoint, but enjoyed the hell out of the racing. Tomorrow's entries linked:
