Just checked back on my predictions written at 9am this morning. Why the hell didn’t I put on an e/w Acca? Gutted1

For once changing my mind last minute has worked a treat. Put Circus Maximum and Frankly Darling into my 4-folds so guaranteed a return. Small stake so will only be going wild if last two go in (Nazeef and Land of Oz).0

Nazeef and Moon King are hardly imaginative tips for the penultimate and last races today, but only the Ribblesdale has been worth my attention I think, so I'd ignore me! Tomorrow seems a bit more promising.0 -

The logic I put behind opposing Frankly Darling earlier, I’ll flip it on it’s head and back Dettori on a 50.0 (BFEX) shot here - Pianissimo. Fingers crossed.0

1.15 - Obviously a race to consider each way filth though a lot of people fancy Ouzo, the favourite, even if that's unimaginative/obvious. Zhui Feng at 20s loves Ascot and well worth a look, and Plantadream is talented. If I had to pick a likely winner then I suspect Maydanny (6s or 13/2) could make a mockery of the handicapper.
NB Hugh Taylor goes for Ambassadorial, and Ben Linfoot Salayel.
(1.50 is above - Berlin Tango then Kenzai Warrior. Ben Linfoot mentions Berlin Tango but doesn't tip him.)
2.25 - Mark Johnston wins this a lot and has Frankie aboard King's Caper (14s with Bob's lot, 10s and 11s elsewhere), and Andrea Atzeni on Glenties at a huge 33/1 or so (probably rightly). I think KC is likeliest of Johnston's entries, but my fancy comes in the form of the Buick/Appleby partnership in Bright Melody (anywhere from 5s to 6s) who shaped as if a step up would be welcome when third last time out, that form also boosted by Pyledriver. But this is a race where I would want to concentrate on each-way players. In no particular order they are Arthurian Fable, To Nathaniel, and Trumpet Man.
NB Ben Linfoot fancies Bright Melody as well as Arthurian Fable.
3.00 - Japan looks easily the classiest but prohibitive to back. I think Addeybb will overcome ground issues for a huge challenge, while Barney Roy has to be massively feared too. Probably a watching brief mainly though, and hopefully a cracking race!
3.35 - Value hunting time! You could make a case for pretty much every runner here. If Afaak (12s generally) can return at his best he has every chance. And he won this last year, with a second in 2018, so worth chancing with the excellent Cieren Fallon on board. The Gosden runners are rightly at the top of the market, but a little short-priced for a handicap so deep, and reflecting that, going with Indeed each-way when loads of firms are offering six (even seven) places makes a bit of sense.
NB Ben Linfoot tips Fox Premier and Petrus, and he's much more worth listening to than me lol.
4.10 - A load of once-raced horses. This could be literally anything. All I'd say is that if you're not going to avoid the race, you should be avoiding Mighty Gurkha, because Archie Watson is 3-54 with two year olds in Pattern-class races (Soldiers Call being two of those three), despite a great record on 2yo debut. If I'm proved wrong by the one horse I've named here, then we have a very good horse around, and I will look like a right mug.
4.40 - Both Hugh Taylor and Ben Linfoot have tipped Ranch Hand (9/2) which has rather decimated the odds but I will go with their collective wisdom. I think both Dubai Horizon and Eddystone Rock have each-way possibilities (both around 16s). At even longer odds, Hochfeld is a very interesting runner given how long he's been off the track, and lurks on a dangerous mark. Fujaira Prince is a worthy favourite. But I'm not going to follow my dubious nose here!

Whether he is good enough to beat Japan is another matter. The softer it is the better his chance will be.
To me tomorrow looks like an awful day to be betting.0 -
