Royal Ascot: Simon Rowlands giving Twilight Jet a chance in Commonwealth Cup at a big price among five picks for day four
Simon Rowlands has five selections for the fourth day of Royal Ascot. The Commonwealth Cup and Coronation Stakes are the big races on Friday. There are over 600 declarations across the five days and 35 races. The winner of the Cor on the Commonwealth is likely to be Inspiral. Discoveries is a mystery. Tenebrism is an also-ran. He is probably second-best on show behind only Inspirals. Simon Rowland is happy to sit out the Terebrisms. His other selections are for Discoverie, who is the Moyglare Stud Stake winner at two.
Jet backed to fly high in Commonwealth Cup. Perfect Power is a Guineas non-stayer. Twilight Jet was a smart two-year-old who was asked to do too much in the lead when fifth in Middle Park Stakes. Changingoftheguard is the favourite in Royal Ascot Derby, the King Edward VII Stake (5.35). Trawlerman is an interesting bet in Duke of Edinburgh Handicap (3.40) and Sandringham Handicsap. He demolished 91-rated King Frankel and finished sixth in Sandown Classic Trial. He won a surprisingly strong handicap at Chelmsford last time.
Simon Rowlands' best bets for Royal Ascot are: Commonwealth Cup - Twilight Jet (1pt win), Duke of Edinburgh Handicap - TRAWLERMAN ( 1pt) and Sandringham Handiap- CRENELLE (0.5pt). King Edward VII - CHANGING OFTHEGUARD (2pts win).
