yeah im hoping she wins too - have only had a small bet on her this time - I was huge on her last year but Canford scares the living daylights out of me..

Can't believe Canford is even-money in the U.S. pool. Thought Goldie would get bet off the board and let Canford go off a big overlay. People can't be fooled.

It's amazing how relaxed all the horses are over there going to the gate.

Well damn

huge late money for Goldikova but it was misguided - great ride by Hughes. It will be very interesting to see what prices the US horses are in the next in the US - I fancy Prohibit big time next up.

Cowell was in a state of disbelief as Prohibit returned to the winner's enclosure. "I can't believe that's just happened - has it happened?" he said.

"I'm overwhelmed. I've got sunglasses on, so you won't notice I'm crying. I've had a bit of flak for running him too much, but he thrives on his racing. He's a game horse and I'm chuffed to bits. It's the best day of my racing life - it's awesome."

That's great.

Great race. Both horses were amazing. Canford is a monster at Ascot - Coventry in 2009, St James's Palace last year and now the Queen Anne.

Can't believe how well Cityscape ran. The race of his life.
