Trading Leather wins the Irish Derby.

I guess the racing highlight today is the Gp1 Prix Jean Prat at Chantilly.

Will Poule d'Essai des Poulains winner, Style Vendome, prove that he is the best three-year-old miler in France? The form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com thinks he can score his second Group One victory of the year. Who do you think will win?

[WideWally]

I guess the racing highlight today is the Gp1 Pretty Polly Stakes at the Curragh.

A talented group of fillies and mares will contest this race The form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com was keen on Alive Alive Oh but unfortunately she has come on season & been scratched. Who do you think will win?

[WideWally]

Today is the first day of the Newmarket July meeting. The first race (The Bahrain Trophy) was just run & won by Feel Like Dancing. Sadly for me Centrebet claimed the race was closed when they didn't actually jump until about three minutes later.

Dirty grubs

I guess the racing highlight today is the Gp1 Foul Mouth Stakes on Day 2 of the Newmarket July meeting.

There are only four starters in this one mile race for fillies and mares but three of them are Group One winners. The form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com has a preference for Sky Lantern & Elusive Kate. Who do you think will win?

[WideWally]

Lethal Force just won the Group One July Cup at Newmarket in a new track record time. Very impressive performance by the brilliant grey sprinter who won the Gp1 Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot at his previous start.

 

[WideWally]

We have just seen Flintshire win the Group One Grand Prix de Paris at Longchamp, a classic race for three year olds over 2400m. He was ultra impressive & will undoubtedly shorten in the market for the Arc in October. Today was only his fourth start & his third victory.

[WideWally]

I guess the racing highlight today is the Gp1 Irish Oaks at the Curragh.

A talented group of three year old fillies will contest this race. The form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com was keen on Alive Alive Oh but for the third time in recent weeks she is a late scratching. Possibly connections are waiting for a bit of cut in the ground but the track today was Good to Firm. The two best chances are now probably Talent (who won the Oaks at Epsom) & Riposte who won the Gp2 Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot. There will also be some support for Chicquita who ran second in the Gp1 Prix de Diane (aka the French Oaks). Who do you think will win?

[WideWally]

I guess the racing highlight today is the Gp1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot.

The outstanding French gelding, Cirrus Des Aigles, is favourite for the event. His Official Rating is 12 lbs better than any of the other runners. Can he be beaten? He is now seven years old & was disappointing at his only run this year after his trainer had said he was ready to win first-up. I think she has changed her story since. Certainly, we can expect a much improved performance this time. The form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com suggests that Ektihaam might be a good bet on a "both totes" basis. Two starts back he thrashed Thomas Chippendale in the Buckhounds Stakes over this course & distance. Last start, he was bowling along at the head of the field in the Hardwicke Stakes when inexplicably the jockey fell (or more likely "jumped") off. Thomas Chippendale went on to win that race before his tragic demise just after the winning post. Ektihaam is currently 15/2 so represents each way value.

Others with good chances include Irish Derby winner, Trading Leather; Gp1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud winner, Novellist & at long odds, Gp2 Princess Of Wales's Stakes winner, Universal, who received a high rating from the form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com after that victory. I guess Hillstar has some chance but Trading Leather is probably the better 3yo by a couple of lengths.

Who do you think will win?

Here is yet another excellent tip from the form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com

If you want to give your horse a little bit of help during a race, grunt "hooo hooo" in deep guttural tones.

It really works!

e.g. Race 5 at Caulfield. The bet of the day, Octavia, was bowling along in front as they entered the home straight. The form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com went "hooo hooo" & she skipped clear. Halfway down the straight, the form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com went "hooo hooo" again & she increased her lead.

Then in Race 6 at Caulfield, Second Effort sneaked up on the rails as they entered the home straight. The form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com went "hooo hooo" & he shot to the front. Halfway down the straight a couple of challengers appeared but the form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com went "hooo hooo" again & he responded strongly to secure victory.

Best of all, this excellent tip from the form analyst at www.widewallyfoldableshoesandhorseracingtips.com is absolutely free. That's right. Hard to believe, isn't it? We just ask that you don't tell every man & his dog about it. Thank you.

It has been scientifically proven to be far more effective than "Go you good thing".

[WideWally]

German star Novellist has won the Gp1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot by about 5 lengths from Trading Leather & Hillstar. A fast track & a hectic early pace contributed to a new track record, some 2 seconds quicker than Harbinger time from 2010. The first five horses home were all inside the old record. Once again Cirrus Des Aigles ran well below his best.

Novellist will now challenge Intello for favouritism in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe to be run in October.

[WideWally]

Elusive Kate easily wins the Gp1 Prix Rothschild at Deauville. She has now won 4 Group Ones including this event last year.
 

[WideWally]

Today is the first day of Glorious Goodwood.

How good is that?

Answer - It's okay?

[WideWally]

I guess the racing highlight today is the Gp1 Sussex Stakes at Goodwood.

How good will that be? Dawn Approach & Toronado meet again after their great battle in the St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot. And you can also throw in the talented Declaration Of War.

[Merlin]

Hughes claiming that Toronado can turn it round against Dawn Approach ...
Not sure of that, meself.
But at 4/1 Toronado versus 7/4 Dawn Approach ... the tasty odds beckon.
