The Weekend Winners team are back to preview the Saturday of Royal Ascot and provide you with their best bets.
Host Kate Tracey is joined by BetVictor’s Sam Boswell and Declan Rix of attheraces.com to select their best bets from the Royal Meeting, with particular focus on the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes.
At The Races’ Declan Rix…
“I like the chances of Wathnan Racing’s second-string Flora Of Bermuda. She’s got Royal Ascot form as well as form over the course and distance. She progressed nicely from two to three and this year has shown more progression into her four-year-old campaign.
“It was a big run at York last time and was possibly a shade unlucky, as looking like needing the run. Oisin Murphy isn’t riding as her as usual and he is retained for the owners of Sajir who also lines up in the race so don’t be put off by that. There is plenty to like about her.”
Host Kate Tracey…
“I’m with Flora Of Bermuda too as I think she’s overpriced at 12-1. She’s highly consistent, she’s proven herself at the level and is a staple in the sprinting scene. The bar isn’t high for the sprinting division currently, but she has announced herself into that group.
“What she’s been able to show in Group One company when finishing fourth, fifth and third when going down a length in the Champion Sprint on Champions Day is a massive positive. She was only beaten a neck by Inisherin last time and at the prices she looks the better bet of the two for me.”
BetVictor’s Sam Boswell…
“I’m going to side with the Japanese runner in Satono Reve and wouldn’t it be great if they were to have a winner. You go back through his form and he loves rattling fast ground which it is going to be. You see him finish second to the best sprinter in the world Ka Ying Rising at Sha Tin last time and it’s a good run which adds him into the mix.
“At 9-2 or 5-1 I think that is a more than fair price. My only worry would be the set-up of the race and hope he doesn’t get shuffled too far back. He’s a solid bet for me in this.”

Dodgers’ Roki Sasaki Resumes Throwing Program in Recovery From Shoulder Injury
<!--> Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Roki Sasaki has restarted his throwing program as he continues his recovery from a right shoulder injury. Manager Dave Roberts said the 23-year-old phenom threw from 60 to 90 feet Friday in his return to workouts after a brief pause. "That was a bonus," he said. "That was a plus. Chatted with him briefly afterward. He was excited about it."The Dodgers had halted Sasaki’s throwing program for the previous several days because he didn’t feel comfortable throwing at full intensity. Roberts confirmed that Sasaki has remained pain-free, but must build up his arm to game strength in a process that will take at least a few more weeks.Sasaki went on the injured list May 13 with right shoulder impingement, and the Dodgers transferred him to the 60-day injured list earlier Friday to make room on their […]
Pirates’ Oneil Cruz makes error in center field, then watches ball roll away as run scores
The Pittsburgh Pirates came into Friday's game versus the Texas Rangers with the second-worst record in the National League at 30-46. In the first inning, center fielder Oneil Cruz looked as if the losing had worn him down. Or he was frustrated at making another error at his position.On a Sam Haggerty single to center, Cruz ran over to field the ball but it went under his glove. Errors happen but rather than chase after the ball, Cruz stood and watched the ball roll away, presumably mad at himself for his mistake.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAdam Frazier backed up the play, yet if Cruz had immediately run after the ball, he probably would have gotten to the ball first. It was a bad look for the young star, who appeared to be giving up on the play.As a result of Cruz's lackadaisical approach, Josh […]
