Day Two Royal Ascot 2024 Superboost

2024 Royal Ascot started with a bang on Tuesday with our Superboost of Henry Longfellow to finish in the top 4 of the St James's Palace Stakes landed easily!

On Wednesday we are back with another superb Superboost again backing Betfair ambassador Ryan Moore.

He has a great chance on multiple Group One winner Auguste Rodin in the Prince Of Wales's Stakes at 16:25 today, and if you fancy the horse to run well you can back it at the super-boosted price of 1/12.00 from 4/91.44 to finish in the top two today.


Royal Ascot - 15:05: Back Meydaan

Aidan O'Brien is having a good go at the Queen's Vase today with three intended runners and he's had plenty of success in it too with four wins since 2015, but I have been a bit of a fan of Meydaan this season and I am backing him at 7s to run well.

Meydaan ran in the Lingfield Derby Trial, and the time was quick there, and while he has a few lengths to find on Illinois on that run and they re-oppose here, I've had him down as very much a stayer.

The form has obviously been given a boost with Ambiente Friendly's run in the Derby, and Meydaan also came out of Lingfield to score in the Listed Cocked Hat at Goodwood - which is a race that usually goes to a strong stayer.

Today will be the quickest ground he'll encounter, so that's potentially a worry. But he saw his race out strongly last time and he could excel, or certainly improve going up to 1m6f.


Royal Ascot - 17:05: Back Wild Tiger

Six places are on offer for the Hunt Cup, and Simon Crisford's old Godolphin chum Saaed bin Suroor has a couple of fancied runners today.

One is Wild Tiger facing 32 rivals in the famous old cavalry charge up the straight, but I was impressed with his win last time at Goodwood over 7f - and sparked the interest for going up to 1m.

Indeed, bin Suroor identified the Hunt Cup soon after, and off a revised mark off 98, we are still nowhere near the ceiling of his abilities.

He's been improving and won at Yarmouth previously, and while that wasn't much of a race, he's progressive and done well since the headgear was applied - a trait of the trainer's.

Invisible Man won this for the yard back in 2010, and I am hoping we can get a tune out of Wild Tiger. He's drawn in 20, and I like a draw with an extreme rather getting stranded down the middle and he should race up with the pace under Oisin Murphy.
