The action for the Royal Ascot 2017 meeting starts at 2.40 pm on Tuesday, June 20th with the Queen Anne Stakes (Group 1) affair. This is part of the British Champions Series and market leader Ribchester will probably go down into many an opening day accumulator from the famous meeting. Don’t forget that at online betting site bet365 you can claim the best price on every horse of all races which are shown live on ITV Racing.
To ensure that you get the best price on every horse running, just place a bet from 10 am on the day of the race and then Bet365 will match the price of Ladbrokes, William Hill, Paddy Power, Coral, Sky Bet and Boylesports, so you can get your Royal Ascot betting down safe in the knowledge that you are getting the best price.
At a short price of 5/6 punters aren’t going to have massive appeal on Ribchester taking on the challenge in 16-horse field, but the acca appeal of him is huge here. Ribchester will be going over the quicker ground that he has been out on since running at the Sussex Stakes and he is a big 5lb clear of his rivals which, in terms of form are Lightning Spear and Mutakayyef.
But then even when you look at Lightning Spear, he has come off second best in his recent four battles with Ribchester now and with Ribchester winning so impressively in his last outing to take the win in the Lockinge at Newbury on soft ground, everything screams that he will take the title here. But then again you have that price which is on the wrong side of evens for a lot of punters.
With the action at Royal Ascot getting off with a bang in three Group 1 races then Ribchester starts to make a lot more sense as a banker in an accumulator. Event though he has failed to keep track of Ribchester, Lighting Spear is the one punters are turning to oppose Godolphin runner Ribchester, after winning the Celebration Mile at Goodwood last August but still because he would need to improve vastly to keep in touch with Ribchester, you can find 10/11 on him for a top three finish of at 7/2 To Finish 2nd.
