Royal Ascot 2016 tips: Betting guide from the Racing Post's Paul Kealy

The Royal Ascot is taking place this week. Over 300,000 people are expected to attend. Paul Kealy gives us his betting guide for Royal Atcot 2016.

There are three 2,000 Guineas winners on Tuesday and a best horse in the world running on Wednesday at Royal Ascot. The Gurkha is hot favourite having trounced his field by five and half lengths at Deauville. Awtaad has won all four of his starts since his debut at the Curragh. A Shin Hikari is making his British debut in Prince of Wales's Stakes. James Fanshawe's five-year-old Hors De Combat is a sporting selection against obvious favourite Convey and the well-backed Best Of Times in Royal Hunt Cup. He was a close third in a straight-course handicap in Britannia at this meeting two seasons ago.
