![]() My laptop would decide to throw in a shocker when the final day means so much (when it comes to trying to overhaul a yank winning an English competition
![]() Anyway, I'm making use of the public library in Newmarket........ wow, not been here in a while! 2.30 Chesham (listed) Aerodynamic (alt Shakesperean), Beethoven (alt Step In Time) 3.05 Hardwicke (Gr2) Doctor Freemantle (alt Tajaaweed), Campanogolist (alt Enroller)..... If I don't hit the exacta here there is something wrong! 3.45 Golden Jubilee (Gr1) J J The Jet Plane (alt Ialysos), Sacred Kingdom (alt King's Apostle) 4.25 Wokingham Genki (alt Nota Bene), Jimmy Styles (alt High Standing) 5.00 Duke Of Edinburgh Martyr (alt Hatton Flight), Road To Love (alt Young Mick) 5.30 Queen Alexandra Amerigo (NAP) (alt Halla San), Tyrrells Wood, (alt Tasheba) For what it's worth, I found it very difficult to choose which one to NAP today. Everyone knows how much I love J J, but 7/2 in such a good race means there is little value, Aerodynamic was my nap until I changed my mind. Pat Eddery thinks he is very good! However, Amerigo will love this extreme trip and should be too good in the last.

![]() Well, I wish I hadn't have bothered today. Awful awful day from my point of view.
I just spotted two very nice exactas from you two handicapping experts. It's been a great performance from both Bigs and Viscount. Well done guys! What can be said about Me and Brock....... well, I think "don't give up the day job" comes to mind. Often as my school report said "could do better" It's been a fantastic week of racing and it was brilliant to see two American winners, I hope we can see some more American trainers come over next year, the more the merrier. Disappointed with JJ today, he kept on well for fourth, which is nothing to be ashamed about I suppose. Something like the July Cup could be the race to suit him a bit better with a real stiff finish. Once again, well done Bigs and Viscount. Two very nice exactas picked out today and it'll be interesting to see who comes out on top.

![]() FINAL ROYAL ASCOT RESULTS
Firstly, thanks all for playing. It was great fun and a tremendous week. 7 or 8 years ago, I had probably my most horrific days betting at Royal Ascot on my first ever visit there. Yesterday pretty much rivaled it. Anyway, enough about me and congratulations to Bigs who had another brilliant day nailing the exacta in the ultra competitive 26 runner Wokingham paying £106.5 for £1. He has been as solid as a rock all week and he is now rivaling Wes Ward as my favourite American! Honourable mention to Ian who also has a solid week picking plenty of winners. Hopefully, please God, we'll all be around next year for Royal Ascot 2010.. Position / Name / Score Today / Total Score 1. Bigs +362.5 +2173.67 2. Viscount +162.5 +1222.08 3. No Chance -450 +325.25 4. ARyan 0 -301.67 5. Irish -450 -648.67 6. Stickhorse -170 -1566.67
