MAX STAMINA NEEDED IN THE MUD
🎩 2.30 Royal Ascot (Chesham Stakes)
STATS: Aidan O’Brien has won three of the last five. Top performers recently Churchill (2016) and Pinatubo (Charlie Appleby, 2019).
FORM: Aidan O’Brien has had Love from the older horses but no money from his juveniles this week and, if Point Lonsdale takes after his brother, Broome (runs 3.40), he’ll need a while to climb the ranks to the top grade; it took him six starts to win a Group race. Today’s Listed, then, is a good level to start.
New Science was Charlie Appleby’s first two-year-old to win; as a son of Lope De Vega, he should not be inconvenienced by the soft ground.
The second colt home was The Queen’s Reach For The Moon, whose brother, Chalk Stream, has won with cut in the ground but in moderate company.
The form of Masekela’s Goodwood win has been let down – at least it was on the soft – and Goodwood is not an ideal prep for Ascot.
Both sire and dam’s sire of Great Max loved the mud and their progeny accordingly, and this one will enjoy the extra trip.
It is desperately hard work for two-year-olds on a deep surface and I can’t take a short price about anything, particularly a favourite whose yard is so out of form. Just a pound or two to concentrate the mind.
Lays Logic Point Lonsdale
BETDAQ BETTING EXCHANGE value 7.0 New Science, 12.0 Great Max
STORM SHOULD DO DAMAGE AT 13.5
🎩 3.05 Royal Ascot (Jersey Stakes)
STATS: Aidan O’Brien has not won this for eight years now but Richard Fahey, who had a juvenile winner on Thursday, has scored twice in five seasons.
Third to Campanelle in the Prix Morny on French soft, Fahey’s Rhythm Master was tried over 7f in the Greenham behind Chindit and is unexposed.
O’Brien runs only Khartoum, a raw beast last year but showing a touch of class on soft ground to score at Naas last month. However, O’Brien is now 1-30 at Ascot this week.
Unbeaten filly Bellosa (gets 3lb) took a Listed at Newmarket. That’s where Mutasaabeq won twice – his debut success on heavy – before seventh (supplemented) in the 2,000 Guineas.
Naval Crown was ahead of him, fourth from the front in the Guineas, after being behind Tactical in the Free Handicap before that one was well beaten by Creative Force at Newbury (softish).
That’s why Creative Force has the market lead over his stablemate Naval Crown. An appropriate winner would be once-raced Storm Damage (sire gets softheavy winners).
BETDAQ value 8.4 Mutasaabeq, 14.0 Storm Damage
ILARAAB BIG HARDWICKE IMPROVER
🎩 3.40 Royal Ascot (Hardwicke Stakes)
STATS: Nine wins out of 10 to four-year-olds: Sir Michael Stoute 5, Aidan O’Brien 2.
FORM: I have followed Stoutie in this, winning with Dartmouth (10-1 in 2016), and the Frankel four-year-old Highest Ground has been skilfully steered towards the race, winning his only start at 1m 4f only 12 days back. The ground is a worry but nothing seems to worry Oisin Murphy.
Japan and Albaflora trailed in seven lengths and more behind that mighty battle on the soft at Epsom between Pyledriver and Al Aasy.
It seems to confirm that Broome should be my best of the Ballydoyle runners and he’s Ryan Moore’s pick, too. But he’s never won beyond 1m 2f and O’Brien is in such poor form.
Albaflora could bounce back: her sole success since her maiden was over today’s CD in a Listed in May.
The rain is a bonus for Wonderful Tonight, the British Champions Fillies And Mares winner here on the soft in October, but David Menuisier is gearing her up exclusively for the Arc.
Ilaraab was reserve for the Fortune Cookies, so gets in on the defection of two absentees tody. He is 6-7 and beat yesterday’s Duke Of Edinburgh runner-up the last day at York. A big improver who likes it soft but can he step out of handicap company into a Group 2? Trainer states will love the mud.
BETDAQ value 7 Ilaraab
NAHAARR THE NAG FOR A RAINY DAY
🎩 4.20 Royal Ascot (Diamond Jubilee)
STATS: Nine wins out of 10 to horses aged four and five. DRAW: They came down the middle in the two 6f races yesterday, looking for better ground (if there is any).
FORM: Dream Of Dreams won the Group-1 Haydock Sprint on soft in September after being second in the Diamond Jubilee on good ground. He was failing by a head for the second consecutive year.
Dreams is seven now and was also beaten into second by Glen Shiel over today’s CD at Ascot in the British Champions Sprint (soft). But Glen Shiel is also seven years old.
Starman, who misses today’s race, inflicted a neck defeat on Nahaarr at the York May Meeting but Nahaarr was slow away and was marked up 8lb, which puts him 21lb higher than when he won at Newbury last July on his way to taking the Ayr Gold Cup. Third in that York race was this week’s winner, Oxted.
Nahaarr has been absolutely hammered in the market since the rains came down but still value on BETDAQ in the depleted field this morning.
BETDAQ value 6.0 Nahaarr
22.0 GULLIVER WANTS IT ATTRITIONAL
🎩 5.00 Royal Ascot (Wokingham Stakes)
STATS: Eight wins out of 10 to horses aged four and five; just one winning favourite and outsiders up to 25-1 and 33-1 (twice).
FORM: Rohaan tries to be the first winning three-year-old since 1986, after improving an incredible 57lb since December, with six wins, climbing from class 6 handicapping to Group 2 success in the Sandy Lane at Haydock last month.
Rohaan won the Commonwealth Cup Trial for his own age group here at Ascot in April on firm ground but that Sandy Lane success by a nose came on heavy!
Rohaan has had a much-needed month off but Kings Lynn ran only on Tuesday, when seventh in the Kings Stand Stakes, his way through blocked in the final furlong, but able to run here well in with just a 5lb penalty, so 7lb well in
Pendleton has had just three races spaced out since winning here at Ascot 15lb lower in October 2019, always in the first two.
Pendleton won again at Ascot in May but is giving weight to the horse that beat him, James Fanshawe’s Fresh, for whom this is a long-term target.
Desert Safari has won twice this year, gelded since running third at York in the Coral Sprint in october.
Indigo Balance will ‘adore’ the soft ground, says Jessica Harrington. Gulliver wants it ‘attritional,’ and was keeping on in the good-ground Wokingham won by Hey Jonesey last year.
BETDAQ value 10 Fresh, 22 Gulliver, 33 Indigo Balance

What are points? Points facilitate a staking plan, which is the secret to creating profit. One point is whatever you choose: a pound, a euro, or whatever ….
Start with a bank and decide how much you can afford to lose over a period of time, and determine the size of your bets accordingly. Daqman makes this variation every day.
