Royal Ascot: Coventry Stakes - Pedigree Analysis and Race Preview
by mjj000 on 16 Jun at 23:17
Dosage Profile of 2013 Coventry Stakes contenders in comparison to previous winners of the race
Dosage Profile (Brilliant - Intermediate - Classic - Solid - Professional)
The dosage profile is a series of five numbers which shows how many points this horse has inherited from their sires in each category. The Brilliant and Intermediate category relate to a horses speed, whilst the Classic and Solid categories relate to stamina
Dosage Index - Calculates a ratio of the horses speed to its stamina The general rule is the higher the number, the speedier the horse. Eg. 2.0 means the horse has twice as much speed as stamina
Centre of Distribution - The COD is another indicator of speed and stamina. A positive COD indicates a preference for speed, whereas a negative COD indicates he they have more stamina points

Royal Ascot - In which races should we back Sir Michael Stoute?
by drobgod on 12 Jun at 09:12
With Royal Ascot fast approaching and the US Open Golf firmly studied up I thought I'd turn my attention to trying to find some decent betting angles for next week and where better to start than Sir Michael Stoute, trainer of 45 winners at the Royal meeting.
I've decided to concentrate solely on his runners in group races that contest races run over at least 1m 4f and have used results from 2006 to 2012 for my research. Below is a list of the races he had runners in, where they finished, their starting price, the horses age and who rode them and then underneath I have broken the results down further in the hope of finding that angle we need.
2006
Ribblesdale - 2nd 5/2f (3yo) K Fallon and 11th 6/1 (3yo) C Soumillon
Gold Cup - 3rd 5/2f (7yo) Mick Kinane

O'Sullivan Hat-Trick Looks Overpriced
by TeddyT on 11 Jun at 16:39
With just over a month since the end of the 2013 World Championship we have already seen the initial winner of the 2013/14 season when John Higgins took the first European Tour event in Bulgaria.
Perhaps surprisingly one player who turned up in Bulgaria was Ronnie O’Sullivan and judging by his Twitter comments the World Champion appears to be enjoying playing snooker again. This has made me wonder if O’Sullivan represents a decent long range bet to win his sixth (and third consecutive) World Title next April.
A couple of bookmakers are currently offering 5/1 about a Rocket hat-trick and I’m quite surprised to see the bookies being that generous. I believe O’Sullivan was only a 6/1 shot to win in 2013 and that was after a year away from competitive snooker.
I was lucky enough to be in Sheffield for..
Royal Ascot. The Coventry Stakes and the Windsor Castle Stakes. Final Fields now known.
by martinr on 12 Jun at 05:45
The final fields for the Coventry Stakes and the Windsor Stakes have been declared.
16 go to post in the Coventry Stakes. Coolmore have accepted with three runners. Richard Hannon and Mick Channon are starting a team of three each as well.
13 of the 16 runners won last time out, so there's no help for punters there. Of the 3 runners that didn't win LTO, one of them (Riverboat Springs) looks to have a live chance as well.
Stubbs is the pre post favourite, trading around the 3.50 mark. The 3 Coolmore runners all feature in the top 5 in betting:
Stubbs. 3.50
Championship. 6.00.
Sir John Hawkins. 6.00.
Thunderstrike. 8.50
War Command. 11.00.
Riverboat Springs. 11.00.
Wahaab. 13.00.
Mawfoor. 13.00.
Parbold. 17.00.
Others: 13.00 - 100.00
With favoured runners having such a good record in the Coventry it seems best to concentrate on the..
