Oh, is the Kentucky Derby today? That's much later on. I'm already on my second coffee, so...
Haydock 8:10- 1m (1m37y) Ascendant Stakes (Listed Race) (Class 1) (2yo)
#4- Fancy Man (2-1) was well clear of the third-place finisher when runner-up in the Listed Stonehenge S. last time, which came back as a quality result over soft ground.
EX- 4/1,6,8 Result: 4,1,8 Exacta $11.20 Fancy Man ($5.20) proved best but Williams Bligh hung for third, spoiling a much better exacta.
Haydock 8:45- 1m (1m37y) Superior Mile Stakes (Group 3) (Class 1) (3yo+)
#4- Stormy Antarctic (6-1) looks to be rounding to form, turns back in distance and drops in class from a fine second-place effort in French GI fixture. Hoping for a longer price underneath.
EX- 4/All Result: 5,8,6 Top Rank ($11.80) undefeated in four starts before getting nipped by top-class Montatham last time, made a successful jump to Group racing as much the best today. He's a miler to be reckoned with going forward.

Haydock 9:15- 1m6f (1m6f1y) Handicap (Class 2) (3yo)
#2- Arthurian Fable (3-1) beat all but one in the "3yo Ebor" at York last time, seems fairly weighted and handles all ground.
WIN- 2 Result: 3,4,5 Favorite Moon ($5.40) absolutely crushed the field, he's a future stayer indeed. Arthurian Fable showed little.
Ascot 9:30- 1m (Str) British EBF Premier Fillies' Handicap (Class 2) (3yo+) (0-100)
At the weights, taking a crack with #4- Indie Angel (7-1) from the Gosden yard. Two wins in five turf tries this season, mile is the right distance.
WIN- 4 EX- 4/2,3,5,11 Result: 8,9,11 Dreamloper ($10.00) was bet down late and the money was spot on.

Haydock 9:50- 1m6f (1m6f1y) Old Borough Cup Handicap (Class 2) (3yo+) (0-105)
Rich stayers handicap for 3up. I like #11- Rajinsky (10-1) the best, but will hook him up in a big swing exacta box as well.
WIN- 11 EXBOX- 5,6,7,8,11 Result: 2,14,5 Euchen Glen ($38.00) was toting a lot of weight but never looked to be slowing late.
Ascot 10:05- 1m4f (1m3f211y) Lavazza Stakes (Heritage Handicap) (Class 2) (3yo)
#4- Grand Bazaar (6-1) steps up to the big show but has handled everything he's seen so far. #8- Al Qaqaa (8-1) needs to run back to his Newmarket effort in June.
EX- 4,8/2,4,5,6,7,8 Result: 6,2,5 My two went right to the front and got swallowed up late.

Haydock 10:25- 6f Sprint Cup Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) (Class 1) (3yo+)
Best sprint field of the year so far in my book. #4- Hello Youmzain (7-2) looks to defend his title and is in top form. #9- Golden Horde (6-1) 3yo has never run a bad race in nine starts, looks like the future of sprinting in the UK.
WIN- 9 EX- 4,9/2,4,6,7,9,10 Result: 2,3,9 Dream of Dreams ($6.40) is the best 6F horse in the UK bar none. Golden Horde was only beaten 1 1/2 L in third and is as honest as they come. Following him going forward.
