Ascot looms…

…and I’m beginning to get excited.  Winker is extremely well and we’ve been arguing the toss with Pete all week as to which race he’ll go for.  It’s looking like we’re going for the Norfolk on Thursday.  Major Eazy will run in the Windsor Castle on Tuesday, and Frankie is taking the ride.  He’s run in the best 2yo company without winning anything, but Brian’s horses hadn’t been firing.  That seems to have changed (even Adam Eterno beat a couple home yesterday…) and I’d give him a proper chance at hopefully decent odds.

On the Saturday Captain Hurricane may run in the Wokingham, but he’s slipped so far in the ratings now that he probably won’t get in.  King’s Head goes for the Duke of Edinburgh handicap.
