15:55 Ascot

Imperial Guest was in my view very unlucky yesterday and although it seems silly to think he can run well again just a day later, the race didn’t look to take much out of him. I don’t think he’ll run if he not about to put up a decent show, and I just think he is a horse on his way back to good form. The better ground this time compared to what he has faced in his other big 7f runs a Ascot earlier this year should really help and he worth a small bet at 33/1 EW with 5 places.

Damika has been getting back to form lately, and this has the look of a weak enough race she he may be able to dominate. This tough 5 furlongs might just be about right. The win at Nottingham and close 6th at Doncaster next run are both decent and give him a definite chance here. 14/1 looks about 4 points too big.

Pravda Street is one of my old favourites and on the form of his 7^th in the Victoria Cup of 6lbs higher would be easily enough to take a hand in this weaker race. He was poor last time which is probably the reason for the big price, but he is back 1 furlong in trip from that run and looks better in general on softer ground. 22 on Betfair certainly looks quite a few points too big and worth a bet.

Qulinton won this last year of a higher mark, and I’m just going to ignore his runs since then as id be pretty sure that today is the day yet again. He showed a bit of a return to some kind of form last time out when he stayed on for 4^th in a Hurdle, and the fact that he has been hurdling in his last few runs makes me think they have found his right mark over fences after a long series of poor runs. The trainer is well capable of getting one ready to be spot on for a particular day and the way he walked away with this race last year must surly give him a great chance of a repeat.
