Royal Ascot Friday Tips: Check out RaceOlly's six best bets for day four
We swiftly move on to day four of Royal Ascot, and our star tipster RaceOlly is back with all his best bets for Friday's racing and you can check them out here...
14:30 Royal Ascot - Albany Stakes
High draws are pretty important in this with 13 of the last 14 winners coming from double figure draws, the total outside stall winning on five of those occasions. BEAUTIFUL EYES has a great draw in 16 and represents 2018 winning yard. Good winning debut at Ayr before defying a penalty at Kempton and ran well in a Listed race at York finishing amongst horses that’s ran well here this week already. Kept on well that day and step up to six could be a good move especially on breeding and sire Bobbys Kitten sired last years winner Sandrine.
15:05 Royal Ascot - Commonwealth Cup
SACRED BRIDGE went off just 13/8 fav for the Cheveley Park Group 1 at Newmarket at the end of last season and 5/4 for a Group race on return at Leopardstown where she ran well just failed to reel in the front three and dropped back to sprint trips last time when winning a Listed race. The 4th from that win has since come out and won a Listed race and a Ggroup 2 and this step back up to six furlongs is ideal. Ger Lyons has been in good form lately boasting a 20% win rate over the last two weeks after four winners from 20 runners and this is his own Ascot runner this week. Scratching that run in the Cheveley Park out where the run was to bad to be true and she’s five times the price she would have be.
15:40 Royal Ascot - Duke Of Edinburgh Stakes
EVER PRESENT boasts some very smart form especially last time out where he done well from a terrible draw and bad position to win in a race that’s thrown up multiple winners. Only defeat came when he was just out stayed by the winner after going past him and looking the winner until the final 100 yards, front two pulled a mile clear of the 3rd that day and the winner was highly tried since. Trainer Jessica Harrington had a winner on Thursday at Royal Ascot taking her Ascot win rate to 20% after five winners from 25 runners over the last five years. Little break is a slight worry but he’s won after a break twice already and two of the last five winners won this on seasonal debut.
16:20 Royal Ascot - Coronation Stakes
The French have a good record in this winning four of the last 11 runnings and MANGOUSTINE beat well fancied Cachet in the French Guineas last time out. Ervedya won the French Guineas before winning this for France in 2015 and this is just the trainer's second runner in Britain in five years. Mangoustine has only raced on softer ground, but Dark Angel horses usually have a better record on firmer ground, a 4% higher win rate on firmer ground.
17:00 Royal Ascot - Sandringham Stakes
GOLDEN SPICE has been on the go for a while since the winter but has improved with every run and looked very useful last time when winning easily off a handicap mark of 80. Won a good race at Newmarket before that where the form has been franked multiple times since most notably with the 2nd winning at York last month. Trainer George Margarson had one go very close in the Buckingham Palace here finishing 2nd at a huge 40/1 and the booking of Luke Morris has been worth following this season winning three of his 14 rides for the yard, a 21% win rate. Golden Horn horses have a good record stepping up further in trip which makes him more interesting here

18:10 Royal Ascot - Palace Of Holyroodhouse Handicap
Going for a Luke Morris double to finish the day and LIL GUFF for Daniel and Claire Kubler who’s chasing a hat trick of wins here. Been winning in good times and form of latest win is working out well with the 2nd winning since when he was raised 3lbs. Lil Guff raised 4lbs for that win so is well handicapped and travelled so strongly on recent wins that drop in trip is not a major worry. Low draw is a concern on history but there’s plenty of pace drawn around him and low draws have won four of the five sprints here so far this week and even the seven furlong race was won by one drawn low so worth going against the usual draw bias here
