I have to say I really enjoy these 6 race cards. I find that I am enjoying them more, betting more and looking forward to the next day.
Seems like on our big days I am exhausted by the 9th, the feature isnt until the 12th and oh by the way we tacked on 2 allowances in the 13th and 14th.
Ascot has it right.

Handicapping each Royal Ascot race takes a lot of time. Without running lines or speed figures, the only way to do this is watch replays of past races.

Aside from the 30 horse fields, I feel like I have seen most of them run a few times with a quick refresher.

I agree 100% --
And, they manage to do it all in less than 30 min between races..
And they post quick photo finishes..
And take bets as low as a 1$ (on Twinspires at least)
I'm not going to lie, I learned alot this week!

I know most of the horses and trainers (Thanks to my friend Dave who is a wizz at euro racing, he also taught me how to handicap euros).
I lost my dependance on speed figs.
I watch the races on TVG every day available.
and I bet the exchange on euro racing.

Just a couple of bets at Ascot for me today.
4.20. I think this is actually quite an open race and at the odds I have gone for Coeur De Beaute at 12/1 each way first three places. She finished a neck second to Teppal last time but is double the odds.
5.35. I like longshots in these and Sir Chauvelin could run a decent race back up in trip from las time. At 40/1 a decent each way bet.

Used him under six horses and bet to win, but didn't have the winner.
Damn

Well pleased with my selection Sir Chauvelin at 40/1 in the last. If he'd had a better run he may have even have made it very close. Still backed it each way and got to be happy with 1/4 the odds (10/1) for the 2nd place.
