Hollie Doyle runs the rule over her two rides on Wednesday at Royal Ascot, all live on Sky Sports Racing.
Light weight favours consistent Shallow
She may be in at the deep end but the consistent SHALLOW can out-run her odds in an open Kensington Palace Stakes (5.35) at Royal Ascot.
Richard Spencer’s filly has been on the go all winter, winning twice over six furlongs at Kempton before producing a smart performance over the stiff seven furlongs in the Fillies’ and Mares’ Final at Newcastle on All-Weather Championships Finals Day.
Stepping up to a mile for the first time is a question mark but she hasn’t been out of the money all year and can out-run her big odds off such a light weight if she can build on her sand form on this first try on turf.
Track a plus for big-priced filly
JUSTICE TWICE is a huge price but deserves to take her chance in the Group 2 Queen Mary (2.30) following a string of creditable efforts in defeat.
Hilal Kobeissi’s filly went close at Yarmouth on her second start before proving her aptitude for this course and distance in maiden company last month. She finished best of all behind the reopposing Ralph Beckett filly Society Kiss in a race run in a fast time and again emerged with credit at Lingfield Park on her latest start.
This is a big ask but if the high numbers are favoured I’m hoping we’ll be well placed in stall 20 to give her owners a memorable day.
Hoping for Hollywood performance from Los Angeles
Los Angeles and Anmaat do battle once more
The Prince Of Wales’s Stakes (4.20) is a stellar renewal that I think will go to Aidan O’Brien’s LOS ANGELES – a horse who looks better than ever this year.
He didn’t set out with much to prove after winning the Irish Derby and the Great Voltigeur last season but the signs are that he’s better than ever at four.
Los Angeles looked beaten in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh last time when the reopposing Anmaat came looming upsides but, typical of an Aidan O’Brien horse, pulled out all the stops to find that extra gear and come out on top.
Lion to roar for second time
Charlie Appleby’s Godolphin filly Cinderella’s Dream looks a formidable opponent in the Group 2 Duke Of Cambridge Stakes (3.40) but she may just find one too good.
I prefer John and Thady Gosden’s admirable five-year-old RUNNING LION, who won this last year under an inspired front-running ride by Oisín Murphy, who is on board again.
She was well beaten by Cinderalla’s Dream in the Group 2 Dahlia Stakes at Newmarket on her seasonal return but the addition of cheekpieces can help her build on a better performance at Haydock Park last time.
Progressive Bullet Point my Hunt Cup fancy
My husband Tom Marquand has a great chance in the Royal Hunt Cup (5.00) on Wednesday on William Haggas’ progressive BULLET POINT.
He was dominant at Newcastle last autumn before following up on soft ground at Newmarket but looked better than ever on a sounder surface at Headquarters on his return to action in April.
William has a strong team for the Royal Meeting and this gelding looks to be right up there among his leading contenders. His main rivals are all drawn high but I just hope his low stall on the far side proves decisive.

Colts’ Alec Pierce stunned as NFL’s most explosive WR in 2024, looks to level up on precipice of free agency
Who comes to mind first when thinking about the NFL's top deep threats when closing your eyes? Is it Miami Dolphins All-Pro wide receiver Tyreek Hill? Or perhaps Philadelphia Eagles All-Pro wide receiver A.J. Brown? Maybe even new Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens? Last season, none of those players were the league's most explosive on a per-catch basis. That title belonged to Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce. The 2022 second-round pick led the NFL with a yards-per-reception average of 22.3 after catching 37 passes for 824 yards receiving and seven touchdowns. Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams, who was 5 yards behind Pierce with a 17.3 yards-per-reception average, was the next closest player. That makes Pierce's separation for the top spot in this statistic the second-largest in a single season in the Super Bowl era (since 1966), per Sportradar. Pierce had […]

Today’s best MLB pitcher strikeout props: Back Athletics starter against Astros at plus odds
Reigning World Series champions Los Angeles Dodgers are seeking their sixth consecutive victory and a four-game sweep when they host their National League West rivals San Diego Padres Thursday in the series finale. Los Angeles won the final two contests of its three-game set with the San Francisco Giants and took the first three games of this showdown to improve to 5-1 on its 10-game homestand. The first-place Dodgers have a 4 1/2-game lead over the Giants in the division and are six games ahead of the Padres.Los Angeles, which squandered a two-run lead in the ninth inning Wednesday before Will Smith belted a pinch-hit solo homer with one out in the bottom of the frame to give the team a 4-3 walkoff victory, sends Yoshinobu Yamamoto (6-5, 2.64 ERA) to the mound in the final game of the series.

College football’s hidden portal gems: 12 players poised to punch above their transfer ranking in 2025
Just under three months from the start of the 2025 college football season, several Power Four contenders have added key pieces through the transfer portal in hopes of upgrading their rosters.While many of the big-name signings have drawn plenty of attention coming out of spring camp, not every impactful addition is a household name, yet. Some of the most valuable pickups are lesser-known players identified by sharp personnel staffs and developed by coaches expecting them to contribute immediately this fall.None of the players listed below crack 247Sports' top 25 transfer rankings -- and most fall well outside the top 100. Some sought a fresh start; others saw opportunity and seized it by betting on themselves in a new environment. Previous school: New Mexico Utah moved quickly to land Dampier in December, securing the commitment of both the former New Mexico […]
