#Noble Style

Sportsmail's expert tipster Sam Turner delivers his verdict ahead of day three at Royal Ascot. 2.30: WALBANK shaped with considerable promise on his debut at this venue behind Noble Style and enjoyed a runaway success at York last time. He tackles notable competition in unbeaten Irish colt The Antarctic, but the stiff five furlongs should suit the…

PRINCESS ZOE (4.20) can finally reign supreme for Anthony Mullins in the Gold Cup on Day Four of Royal Ascot. The mare handled this gruelling Group 1 well when a cracking second to Subjectivist 12 months ago. The grey ran another stormer when chasing home Twilight Payment back over 1m 6f at the Curragh. She was then over the top when a lacklustre…

Finding a superlative to describe the year which Charlie Appleby has enjoyed is a relatively easy task, but for those of his training colleagues with aspirations of toppling his team in 2023 they face what looks set to be a challenge of epic proportions. Having raised the bar following a stellar 2021 season, the Newmarket handler once again took…

It can be tricky to handicap early-season stakes for juveniles like the Norfolk S. (G2) taking place on Thursday at Royal Ascot in England. There are so many promising young horses to choose from! The Norfolk looks especially tricky since it's drawn a large field of 11 horses, all vying for a "Win and You're In" berth to the 2022 Breeders' Cup…

It's a huge week for racing fans and punters alike, with 35 races scheduled to take place across five days at Royal Ascot from Tuesday onwards, and we've picked out five horses that have major chances at reasonable odds. The meeting kicks off with arguably the banker of the entire week in Baaeed but you won't get rich backing a 1/4 chance and there…

Top tipster Simon Rowlands has three selections plus analysis for the third day of Royal Ascot on Thursday, live on Sky Sports Racing from 1.30pm. The Gold Cup at Royal Ascot on Thursday (4.20) will look a very different race depending on whether or not the best stayer around, Trueshan, shows up. He has been declared but seems an unlikely runner…

Mirror Racing asked the leading bookies which horses they don't want to win, with punters expecting decent payouts if the likes of Golden Pal and Bay Bridge live up to the hype Royal Ascot is here again with its top class racing, fashion and entertainment throughout the week. The five-day fixture, summer's biggest occasion for fans of the sport,…

There was little doubt that Highfield Princess was the sprinter who achieved the highest profile during the season, thanks mainly to completing a Group 1 hat-trick in three countries in the space of not much more than a month in the Prix Maurice de Gheest at Deauville, the Nunthorpe at York (replay below) and the Flying Five at the Curragh. The…

Reference Point, High Chaparral, Motivator, Authorized, Camelot. All won the Vertem Futurity Trophy at two and the Derby at three between 1986 and 2011, but the fab five haven't been joined by another horse in the last decade. Perhaps the-times-they-are-a-changin'? The Doncaster race has become more of a pointer towards the 2000 Guineas in recent…

It will be a sweet moment on Saturday at Ascot for William Buick, who looks set to finally get his hands on the Jockeys' Championship trophy. Buick takes an unassailable lead of over 60 winners into the final week of the season, moving over the 150 mark with success on Pogo last Friday at Newmarket. The 34-year-old Norwegian rider secured 151…

Two-year-olds hold center stage in Britain and Ireland this weekend. Newmarket hosts the first two Group 1 events of the year on the British calendar for juveniles, both over six furlongs. There are also Group 2 one-mile two-year-old contests in Britain and Ireland that are not only good prizes in their own right; they also open the European Road…

The unbeaten Gimcrack winner Noble Style would have been a short-priced favourite for the Middle Park Stakes had he been in the line-up but in the absence of the Godolphin colt, the York runner-up MARSHMAN looks a worthy Ratings Banker instead. Noble Style won well but Marshman was only a length and a quarter behind him, running to a smart level…

Get set for a super Saturday on Racing TV Marshman carries the hopes of Karl Burke in a fascinating renewal of the Juddmonte Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket on Saturday. The Harry Angel colt won his maiden at Ayr in July and then went on…

Saturday is billed as "Juddmonte Day" as the breeding operation sponsor the Royal Lodge, Cheveley Park and Middle Park Stakes, but it could end up being Coolmore Day or even H H Aga Khan Day, though the predominately emerald green silks representing the latter will not be on show, not at Newmarket anyway. That's because the season's outstanding…

Baaeed will face six rivals as he bids to extend his unbeaten record to eight in Tuesday's Queen Anne Stakes, the opening event of Royal Ascot, live on Sky Sports Racing. William Haggas' charge made a perfect return to action when strolling to a three-and-a-quarter-length victory in the Lockinge at Newbury last month and he is a very short price to…

New stars of the Flat are set to emerge this week as three days of outstanding action kick off on Thursday when Newmarket hosts an abundance of top two-year-old races. Last season the likes of Coroebus and Modern Games appeared at the meeting and this year's fields are likely to offer plenty of clues for next season's Classics and beyond. 1m,…

It was a hot renewal of the Gimcrack Stakes, perhaps the most strength in depth in the race for many a year, a contest which has produced Group One winners like Muhaarar, Blue Point, Sands Of Mali and Emaraaty Ana in the last decade. The first two home this year, Noble Style and Marshman, pulled over three lengths clear of the rest and they look…

Our Juvenile Watch columnist, Ross Millar, is intrigued by what Aidan O'Brien said, and didn't say, about a Coolmore stallion over the weekend, plus nominates his star of the week and shares his thoughts on the Mill Reef Stakes. When trying to be successful as a punter it pays to pay attention to what is being said, and sometimes what is not being…

Irish Champion Stakes, Leopardstown, Saturday 10 September Luxembourg had been only workmanlike when winning the Royal Whip Stakes by a neck at the Curragh last month, but, having met with a setback after finishing third in the 2000 Guineas, he was entitled to come on for that outing and he duly took a big step forward to win a strong edition of…

Cold Case (yellow): finished third to Noble Style and Marshman in the Gimcrack in August Two horses stand out in this sales race and the market has found them - Group 1-entered pair Cold Case and Magical Sunset. Both arrive with differing profiles but similarly appealing claims. Cold Case ran third to Noble Style and Marshman in the Gimcrack in…
