DAY THREE
And it's Gold Cup day, otherwise known as LADIES DAY -- 'but hang on' I hear you shout -- every day is Ladies Day here are Royal Ascot, you just can't move for the amount of dresses and hats on show, even the Essex Girls have made an effort and the fake tan is giving off a nice orange glow in the silver ring.
4.25 Ascot -- The Gold Cup 2m 4f
Last years winner ESTIMATE is in the line up to defend her title won in great battling style for Her Majesty The Queen. If she can go in again it'll bring the house down.
The massive danger as usual in this race is from Aiden O'Brien and his LEADING LIGHT winner of the Queen's Vase here last year and also the St Leger a certain cup horse and going to be a short price fav by the looks of things.
The other one I fancy is the globe trotting BROWN PANTHER for Michael Owen and his trainer Tom Dascombe. Might just be found wanting over the extra few furlongs though but I do fancy him to be placed.
The Gold Cup is the feature race of the whole week as far as I am concerned, and will be a cracker. If I get time to update the rest of the meeting it will be later tonight. If not just enjoy the day.
