Your 2YO Racing Guide to Royal Ascot 2018


It's that time again. Big hats. Girls dressed to the nine. All fur coat and no knickers. Perhaps. Also, lots of top-class thoroughbred horses to feast the eyes. 

The two-year-old racing action is exceptional with juveniles from across the globe including top-class trainers such as Aiden O'Brien, Wesley Ward and a host of British handlers. 

We will update the races day by day. 

Tuesday - 

3:05 Royal Ascot - Coventry Stakes (2yo) (Group 2)

John Gosden's Calyx made an impressive debut win and could start favourite for this quality race. A couple of horses that may go well at a price. Shine So Bright for Karl Burke and Vange, traine dby Richard Fahey. It looks a tricky race so I will be watching.  

Wednesday - 

2:30 Royal Ascot - Queen Mary Stakes (Group 2) 

Interesting to see how Wesley Ward goes with Chelsea Cloisters who won easily on debut at Keeneland by eight lengths. Race fan have fond memories of Lady Aurelia winning unchallenged back in 2016. Remember a year before, he fired home another winner with Acapulco.
