Day 2, Part 2 Racing: Royal Ascot

up day one of Royal Ascot, we have enjoyed a stunning afternoon so far

here and big crowds watched the Royal procession, which kicked off

the afternoon's events and we have had two races so far and still to

come, the feature race, the biggest race of the day, the 150th

anniversary of the Prince of Wales' Stakes, a Group 1 over a mile-and-

a-quarter, in which the Queen has a running, a very good one - Carlton

House. He's definitely developed physically from three to four years

old and we will find out today whether he's up to the class as a

four-year-old. Could be very, very exciting indeed. I think he's got a

chance, don't you? He's got a chance, but he's got a tough nut to

crack in So You Think, the Irish or Australian colt. He is a very, very

good animal. Of course, it's a very good race and we have our next

French horse, now trained by Marco Botti in Newmarket called Planteur.

He's another very good horse and we have heard that he's well fancied

in the race as well. So, we have got a very good race in prospect.

My personal opinion is that I would go for So You Think, because he's a

horse that has been all over the world, he knows he's tough. He's a

heavy weight. I mean that literally as well as metaphorically. The

story of the day so far has been that favourites have not been

walking into the winners enclosure. We have had a very -- had a few

very long-priced winners. Aidan O'Brien was waiting for a winner

this year. He didn't have to wait long this afternoon, because a

filly owned and bred by his wife won our opening race, the Jersey

Stakes. Ish Varna was returned at a price -- Ishvana was returned at a

price of 20-1. Shaney Hefferman, his first Royal Ascot winner and

huge celebrations for the family. Jovality was the second winner.

Will yuem Buick on board. He had a -- William Buick on board. He had a

terrible fall last night when Nile fell. These are the races still to

a pretty decent Royal Ascot? Yes. We were lit up by Frankel and we

have been seeing some very good finishes with short heads and it's

been - obviously All The Good horses, the real good horses, have

been winning and we have had exciting races. We have got a lot

more exciting racing to come. Especially our next race. A lot of

heavy weights and then Saturday we are going to finish with the

exciting Black Caviar, which is half of Australia coming to watch

her. Those that aren't here watching her in the middle of the

night on screens that have been put up around Melbourne. And forgot the

richest race of all, tomorrow, the Gold Cup, which is a marvellous

race. Three real heavy weights going to slog out over two-and-a-

half miles. Flaming glory, -- Fame And Glory. Can he win again? He's

trying to emulate the same stables Yates who won it four times.

statue is in the paddock. The horses are being saddled. That's

Carlton House and just have his nose and eyes wiped down to make

sure he's absolutely gleaming when he comes into the paddock and we

expect the Queen to make her way down from the Royal Box to have a

chat with Ryan Moore, the man who will be on board this horse.

Looking pretty good when he won last time out at Sandown. Came

through a narrow gap and picked up well. Andrew Parker Bowles looking

on there. He's giving us a little grin, the horse, for the cameras.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 41 seconds

Eleven of them line up and here Jim little later. We have got a total

of eleven runners for the 150th anniversary of the race. The queen

about to come into the paddock, just going past the weighing room.

The Earl of Wessex is behind her too. I'm sure that Carlton House

will soon be in here and the Queen will be able to look at him and to

all of the other runners in the race. Those runners include plant

tour, trained by Marco Botti, who is an Italian-born trainer based in

Newmarket. Mick was the man who got the mission to go to his yard to

looks fantastic. Very good. I think think he's in very good condition

at the moment. He's working very well. Is he cheeky? No, such a

gentleman. You're light. He looks nice and relaxed? Yeah. He's very

laid back. Just like you, really? The yard has a great feel to it.

Very relaxed atmosphere. It is. The horses are happy and relaxed.

seems to have done particularly well since you've had him. I think

he's done really well. I remember he came in the end of December and

looked like a brood mare at that stage, very fat. Since then

obviously he has worked out. him to run so well in Dubai against

absolutely world-class horses and you know you can get him better

than that, that must give you plenty of thought? Exactly. When he

ran in the Dubai World Cup we took a chance. You never know how they

will cope on that surface. He was a new horse, so we didn't have a

chance to really know the horse. He's never been an extraordinary

walker. He does enough, never overdoes himself. We were getting

to know him. Plenty of class there. He looks the part. He's almost like

a mirror. I don't think we could have him in any better shape for

this. She is going to sit in the middle, so join in the last few and

give him a nice blow. You need to have a horse with the right

attitude and happy, mentally happy. Obviously for Royal Ascot there

will be a big crowd. Again, to have a horse that's been on the big

stage, so he's used to running and he has run fast. He's perfect this

morning. You've got a smile. You happy? Yeah. Really, he's done

enough for me. When you see him walk like that do you think

suddenly Royal Ascot winner? Well, I try not to get too excited. I

think he's done what I want to see and I'm really satisfied I think

he's spot on for Ascot and we need a bit of luck as well, so I try to

feet my feet -- I try to keep my feet on the ground. Plant tour

looking fresh and well, make -- Planteur looking fresh and well,

making his way in. There is Mickael Barzalona. We'll see where Planteur

figures in the betting. I have managed to grab hold of Jenson

Button. Not physically, observe l! Saw you presenting the award. How

is your -- obviously! Saw you presenting the award. How is your

knowledge? It's been a great day. I think the weather - we were lucky

with the weather today and yeah, looking forward to the next race,

because the Queen has got a horse in the race. Carlton House. In fact,

we'll see it walking around here. It's parading around in the Parade

Ring, so we can have a good look. There he is, over there. I only

know, because I've put a little bit of money on. How much? I can't tell

you. I lot, because you're rich? �20. Sports man's bet. Looking

forward to that. I've put my money on a different horse. Wow! So You

Think. I lost yesterday. Your season, you've had a textbook start

in Melbourne, which is a track you've been successful on before

and since then a few problems? was having such a good day. Sorry.

It's a long season. Yeah, it is. The first few races were great and

the last few have been pretty bad. However, I'm with a fantastic team

and I know that we can sort those issues out. I spend a lot of time

in the factory, since Canada, which was a tough race for me, but great

race for the team and I've solved a lot of the issues so heading off

tomorrow morning to Valencia. It's going to be hot in Spain this

weekend. It's a fun race and I'm really looking forward to the

weekend. Excellent. It's really early days and there's not a

dominant force, romping away, so we are still safe to back you, right?

Yes, you are a gambler, but it's been an unusual season. Seven

winners in seven races, which has never been done before, so I don't

know the reasons for it, but hopefully we'll understand the

reasons for it sooner rather than later and before everyone else and

we can get a bit of consistency there. That's the aim. I know I'm

with a great team, so we'll fight through and start being competitive

and winning races, I'm sure. We'll see between you and I who will win

this race. Yes. I bet Clare has put some money on too. Down here, it's

all abuzz. Jackie Stewart is here, continuing the Formula One theme.

He's been introduced. The Queen is also here, because she has Carlton

House and Ryan Moore joining the Queen and Sir Michael Stoute and

John Warren to receive their instructions. They are down near

the new winners circle. I am slightly further over and here we

have an American-trained runner, Johnny Murtagh taking the ride on

big blue kitten. Is there a lot of excitement here, Johnny?

owner's daughter is taking all the pictures. All very excited to be

here and hopefully he runs well. Nice horse in America, but the

trip and we are enjoying it. I will let you keep snapping. Fantastic.

Good luck. Over here Sheikh Mohammed and Princess Haya. William

Buick wearing her colours. We didn't get to talk to you after the

last race, well done and good luck here S that your first big race

winner at Royal Ascot, have you had a couple before? Bonfire last year,

which I was really pleased about. I think today was really special.

John did an absolutely beautiful job training her and it's lovely to

share it with Sheikh Mohammed who has followed her career the whole

time and really she's such a lovely filly in the stables, so friendly

and sweet with everyone. It's really nice to see her win. She's

going to make a lovely brood mare for you. Not there yet. What about

Colombian's chances in this? Fingers crossed. I actually really

hope Carlton House wins. Well with the Sheikh Mohammed behind, I

suspect also hopes Carlton House will win. We all do. OK. The

Godolphin camp are cheering for the Queen in this, although they

themselves have two runners. Farhh being the better fancied of those.

Let's have a closer look at the horses with Rishi.

We want to take a close look at the Queen's horse, Carlton House. He

looks magnificent, Willie. He was in need of a first run at Sandown.

He was in need of the run. He's obviously at his best distance,

which is a mile and quarter, which is it is today. A lot of these

horses are quite warm. He is still very cool. He looks absolutely

marvellous. Would you have to nearly say that he is the pick of

the paddock. Two horses behind him, Farhh, run three times for

Godolphin. Won all three times, the last time was in a handicap. He is

going to Group 1 company. Explain how difficult that will be. It's

going to be something in the region, he is going to have to run 30lbs

better than he's done in the past. It's a big jump. Like someone

running in domestic competition going to international competition.

It's a big jump. He is a strong horse, good looking too. Here come

a couple of strong horses, the favourite, So You Think. They've

let his mane grow. He looks wild! think he looks fitter than I have

seen him in the past. He looks really trim and he is ready to do

himself justice. He looks terrific. He's got a nice muscle on him. He

looks in good form. Look at the size of the saddle on his back.

Tiny, isn't it? Just behind So You Think is Sri Putra. He is a real

sizable animal. He is a big bull of a horse and a very talented colt.

Here is the American horse here, Big Blue Kitten. He looks quite

well muscled and they've come all the way from America. They've a lip

chain on him going around the paddock, but that's normal for

America. He has a tongue tie on as well, which is also a normal thing

for the American horses. In summary, the horses in the Prince of Wales

Stakes, Carlton House is the pick. Joseph O'Brien just about to get a

legup from his father, Aidan, on to So You Think. Just Just walking

past us, Sir Michael Stoute and Ryan Moore going to make their way

across to Carlton House and hop on him fairly late. The ones that are

the most fancied, the jockeys delaying getting on their horses so

they don't get their horses just too geed up before the parade

because the horses will be walking down in front of the Grandstand and

also cantering down to the start. Let's check the markets.

So You Think 5-6 now. There is a �20,000 bet behind me just been

So You Think. Aidan is just about to put Joseph on So You Think.

Robin Hood, the pace-maker, just drifted past. This is the team,

last year Ryan Moore was aboard So You Think when he was run down by

scan Rewilding. -- by Rewilding. am hoping they ride this horse for

a bit of speed. This horse has more speed than we have seen in the past.

If this horse wins, of course, Aidan O'Brien will go to the top of

the trainers' list for Royal Ascot this year. He will.

So You Think, you think the horse to beat? I am going on So You Think

for what he has done in the past, but that horse, Sir Michael

Stoute's Carlton House, he looks terrific. OK. There you have it,

Carlton House. The parade for this Prince of Wales

Stakes is led by the American- trained Big Blue Kitten, Chad Brown

the trainer, Johnny Murtagh on board and Johnnie being realistic

about his opportunities but they're hopeful. Colombian next and that's

because Carlton House is coming late and so too must be City Style,

but Colombian for Princess Haya, William Buick on board. Then we

have plan phrpb and you heard the - - Planteur and he is getting geed

up today. Then we have Reliable Man, who won the French Derby last year.

He looks very relaxed. Then we have City Style, again very

jiggy. It's a close day. It's very very humid and with the noise and

colour, some of the horses getting fizzed up. Frankie Dettori doing

his best to settle the unbeaten Farhh. He's won all three of his

starts so far. None of them in races of this quality, but he could

be untapped potential. Then we have got a big gap and we

saw the jockeys who were hanging back and delaying getting on board

and one of those was Ryan Moore, riding Carlton House. He will be

coming out shortly and one of the others was So You Think, and Joseph

O'Brien I think was the last one to get legged up. The photographers

all in position to make sure they get the best shot of the winner.

This is Robin Hood, who will be the pace-maker for this race. 150-1,

reflects his chance, he will stay in front for as long as he can and

probably fade. They're hoping So You Think, this horse, this giant

of a horse, will be the one who can pick up and capitalise in the

closing stages, bred in New Zealand. Trained in Australia and now with

Aidan O'Brien. Here is Sri Putra for Roger Varian. Neil Callan

riding him. He is all right, but probably not quite this class.

Then we have Wigmore Hall, for Jamie Spencer. He won a Group 1 in

Canada last September so he is a Group 1 winner. Last of all will be

Carlton House, being kept well away from the other runners, being taken

down by two handlers and Ryan Moore doing his very best to make sure

that nothing is going to wind this horse up before the stalls open and

the mile and a quarter is the only thing he will be thinking about in

terms of expending his energy and Carlton House looking actually very

relaxed. A horse third in the Derby last year, fourth in the Irish

Derby and then we didn't see him for the rest of the season but he

came back with a convincing win at Sandown last time. This is a step

up for him, but this will decide whether his four-year-old career is

going to run along the lines of Group 1s all the way and whether he

is as good as both the Queen hopes that he is, and also Sheikh

Mohammed hopes that he is, because he gave him to the Queen. The crowd,

an awful lot of them around those book-makers and trying to make

their decisions. A lot of money will be going on Carlton House,

because of the setting, because of the day, and because the Queen is

here. So You Think, he was 44-11

favourite, so much shorter for this race 12 months ago. We will look at

his most recent run. An easy victory. Taking it up in front of

the purple and white colours here. Mick, this was a good race. He is a

very good horse and he's won it in good style. Interesting to note

he's run at Ascot twice in his career and although he ran a good

race 12 months ago on this day, he has been beaten both times he has

run here. He has been beaten but he's been beaten by two very good

horses, all we are really seeing here in this piece - showed his

well-being, his liking for quick ground. He has everything in his

favour. No Rewilding this year. Carlton House is a formidable foal,

but this horse has to live up to the billing. He came as a superstar,

he is yet to live up to that. best win in Europe will have been

in the Eclipse in Sandown in the UK, he has been all over. He has been

to France. He has been to Dubai, in the World Cup. He got beaten in the

Breeders Cup, as well. There are a few, admittedly difficult races,

and top quality opposition, a few defeats against him. He is much

travelled. He doesn't look that way, he is a big, strong type. He is the

right type for this race. He is a big horse. A heavy horse.

Aidan O'Brien has admitted in the past maybe he hasn't given him

enough work at home and got him looking fit and sleek, but Willie,

you are impressed with his physical outline today. I think he is

looking sleeker than I have ever seen him. He looks very fit indeed.

Don't forget that among his great achievements in his successes

probably the most remarkable is managing to finish third in the

Melbourne Cup over two miles on soft ground off second top weight.

Unbelievable. Yet you think he is not a stayer. He is a speed horse.

I think we have seen him get beat on a few occasions where they've

kicked a bit too early on him because they think he's got so much

ability. But if they had waited I think his speed would have won the

race. But this fella is a speed horse. So you are Ryan Moore, you

wait and let So You Think go and try and catch him. He will trail So

You Think and get him the last furlong, furlong and a half. But So

You Think is a tough nut to crack. This horse does look tremendous.

Doesn't he look wonderful. Tremendous. Looks really well.

Hello! We have somebody going to collect him. Is that Stewart who

works for Michael Stoute? I am certain it is. He is the head lad.

He is. There is Sir Michael Stoute. A lot

of pressure on his his shoulders at the moment. It's been a quieter

season than he would have liked but coming into form now, to be fair.

His horses last year, we all knew they weren't quite right. There was

something - I don't know, virus, bug, whatever you call it in the

yard, and a lot of those two-year- olds or three-year-olds now are

coming out and winning the maidens. He's had a few winners recently, so

his horses are coming back to form. This horse, who won at Sandown. He

did well. Obviously, what we think of him last year, we thought he was

going to win the Derby, didn't quite get home that day but ran a

very good race to finish third. one I am most worried about in

terms of getting warm and fractious is Planteur. He is dripping. He was

getting wound up, even coming from the pre-parade ring. He is dripping.

Unfortunately, in the paddock when he was walking around if you put a

bucket underneath him you would have soon collected a lot of liquid.

I wonder if that means he might be drifting down in the betting ring

because punters are attune to this sort of thing. John? There's been

an even �100,000 bet with So You Think. �100,000 at evens with

Apollo, So You Think. Well, Farhh is the one we haven't

discussed up there at the top of the betting. Unbeaten in all of his

three starts so far. We are talking about - he was impressive in the

Cup. It's one of those jumps you don't normally take, actually. It's

a leap of faith you might say. So would you have �100,000 on even

money on So You Think? If I was a rich man, yes. You are a rich man!

I can't believe you haven't. So You Think going forward now. He's a

good temperament this horse and interesting to see how he performs

this year in a race that he was beaten in last year by Rewilding.

Colombian going forward. The biggest cheer of all will come if

Carlton House can be successful in this Prince of Wales Stakes. He

looks up against it, because So You Think is a globe-trotting superstar,

and a hot favourite. Here is Jim. Ryan Moore is the man entrusted

with this Royal responsibility. Carlton House, Her Majesty

anxiously looking down the course. The blindfold's been fitted to

Carlton House. This is the equal richest race at the meeting. It's

�500,000 in prize money total. Diamond Jubilee Stakes on Saturday

is the other one, the same prize money. Total of �4.5 million on

offer this week here at Royal Ascot. Going forward is Farhh.

City Style is going to be the last, I think.

That's the one with the white cap. Michael Barzalona in the saddle.

Others stand well. They're locked away. There is Ryan Moore on

Carlton House who takes - ready to heading it off is the pacemaker,

and So You Think is on the inside. Big Blue Kitten out very wide.

Followed next by Wigmore Hall, tucked in behind them. Further back

is Carlton House, settling about sixth in the early stages. Followed

by Planteur and sli pute ra. In company there Bishop Sri Putra. In

company there with Reliable Man -- and Sri Putra. In company there

with Sri Putra and Reliable Man. A length-and-a-half to Carlton House

and a fast-run race. From, on the outside, City Style, with the white

cap, as they start to pull up towards the home turn now. Further

back, followed by Sri Putra and Planteur on the inside from

Reliable Man and Farhh is out the back. All the time, heading up the

hill towards home and Robin Hood takes them along by two to Big Blue

Kitten in second. And So You Think with the run of the race. Then

Colombian on the inside and Wigmore Hall. A length then to Carlton

House, tucked away on the inside as they come to the turn. City Style

on the outer. Then further back is Sri Putra from Planteur and out the

back is Farhh, with Reliable Man. They are on the turn for home.

Straightening up and Robin Hood under pressure. Here is So You

Think. Joseph O'Brien and now getting a run is Carlton House. Now

racing early. He gets to work on So You Think. Carlton House has stolen

half a length, but So You Think is coming at him. A furlong left to

come and it's So You Think. He takes it up and he's powering away.

This is the real So You Think. So You Think goes on to win the Prince

of Wales' Stakes then Carlton House and Farhh in third, followed then

by Reliable Man and Sri Putra and City Style and they were followed

then by Planteur. Well back is Wigmore Hall. Followed then by Big

Blue Kitten. Out the back Colombian and the pacemaker, Robin Hood has

fnished absolute last. The winner is number nine, So You Think,

recording his tenth Group 1 victory. This much-travelled international

superstar has won the 150th San rerstary of the Prince of Wales'

Stakes by three. -- 150th anniversary of the Prince of Wales'

Stakes by three. There is City Style and Planteur. A gap to

Colombian and Wigmore Hall and then the others a fair way back. He got

the run on the inside. He took full advantage. He had a half length up

and went for home, but then Joseph O'Brien, who had been riding

quietly at that stage, got to work. He gpbt get an immediate response,

but event -- didn't get an immediate response, but eventually

he got the one he was asking for. There is strength and determination

and class was telling in the end. This news-bred and former

Australian-trained superstar has got the money. So You Think is the

winner. The distances were two-and- a-quarter lengths, a half length

between second and third. The time 2 minutes and three. He is an

extraordinarily good horse, this. When he delivered the knock-out

punch there was no coming back and galantly as Carlton House has tried,

he has been beaten by a really experienced battle-hardened Group 1

performer and Aidan O'Brien, his second win of the day and of the

week for Joseph O'Brien, his son. His very first Royal Ascot success.

Nice to do it in a Group 1 race. Marvellous. This High Chaperal colt,

he's very, very good. Today, you saw Joseph and he had the help of

the pacemaker and he sat and he was in third and this horse relaxed

underneath him. He was always in the right place. He actually waited

and was glad to see this. He waited until the danger came and showed

its face before he asked the horse to attack, but this guy has a turn

of foot. I know he's by High Chaperal, who is basically a

staying stallion, but this guy has a lovely turn of foot. We won't see

him many more times in this country. He may run in the Eclipse and go to

Australia and then stand as a stallion. He'll come back to

Ireland and stand there. So You Think, Joseph O'Brien was always

handy, good, strong pace set and Johnny was there on Big Blue Kitten

and Joseph was close enough, but patient. You can see Ryan Moore

going to make sure he gets the gaps and the run on the rail: Joseph

hasn't gone until he sees Carlton House on his inside. You can see,

possibly he took a furlong when they went head-to-head, then the

superiorty of So You Think came into play about the furlong poll.

He took off. Dur furlong pole. He's going to be very hard to peat --

furlong pole. He's going to be hard to beat. There is the Queen and

watching the closing stage and for a moment for a stride or two I'm

sure they thought it might happen and then in the last 100 yards or

so, this horse, the big horse, So You Think, asserted his superiorty.

That rich man who had �100,000 on he's going to the bookmaker to

collect. He's celebrating and so too the family. It's a big, big day

for them and a good day and for this horse, So You Think, I think

that takes his earnings and I'm sure Jim will confirm this, past

the �5 million mark? I'm sure it does, Clare, because he has won two

top places in Australia. This is his crowning achievement. He won

the Eclipse last year when she wasn't fully ac climb tiesed. He

has won three races in Ireland. There is he is on the outside. He

goes to the line far too strongly for Carlton House and he's won it

very, very well. So You Think is by High Chaperal and out of the mare

Triacic. As this horse comes back, a magnificent win by So You Think

in the Prince of Wales' Stakes. FANFARE

This horse is a global superstar. Bred in New Zealand originally

raised in Australia, now based in Ireland, he wins his tenth Group 1

of his life and he passes the �5 million prize money barrier. So You

Think is the horse. Trained by I'den O'Brien and ridden, his very

first Royal Ascot winner, ridden by Joseph O'Brien. So You Think, the

winner of the Premier Leagues' Stakes. This race first run in 1862.

Won by some real champions. Toto was a real star. He won it for the

late Alec Stewart. Dubai Millennium, a really big winner of this race in

the Godolphin colours not that long back. So You Think is a real globe

Trotter. Derek Smith, in the lucky purple colours. Worn by Camelot

this year in the 2000 Guineas and Derby and now this Prince of Wales'

Stakes. Historic race. One of the most historic in the calendar. As

happy connections discuss what happened out there, we'll check the

full details to see what price he and 14 wins. Four seconds and a

third. He has won five Group 1s in Europe and five in Australia. By

High Chaperal, who was a famous Ballydoyle double Derby winner and

also a double Breeders' Cup winner. Great performance. A real character

of a horse and Joseph O'Brien, 19 years of age. He's ridden a Derby

winner and he's ridden a Royal Ascot winner. And a 2000 Guineas

winner. He stands six foot tall and he's riding at around nine stone,

which is absolutely remarkable. As Willie was commenting before, the

size of the saddle. It's so small. It's a little more than the size of

a slightly large race card. There is Joseph nearest the camera.

O'Brien's two wins today take him past John Dunlop into third place

in terms of the leading trainers who have licences at the moment.

Sir Henry Cecil is on 74. Bearing in mind, he trained his first Royal

Ascot in 1970. Mike at stout trained his first winner in 1977.

Aidan O'Brien, since just 1997 has moved into third place there. As I

mentioned, when the horses came in for Joseph O'Brien, it's a first

and Willie he's growing more and more into the role and handling the

pressure so well of riding the hot favourites. He has. 19 years of age.

I never rode a winner until I was 19 and here's this kid. And won the

Derby on Camelot. Unbelievable. I keep thinking about all the books I

read about Lester Piggott. This guy, he's so much in that mold. He rode

a we will-timed, sympathetic race. It's the way he does it. He is

sitting on a superstar who is gliding along and he is sitting

there motionless and wonderful jockeyship. As the horse leaves,

we'll hear from the man who has guided him in the latter stages of

his racing career, Aidan O'Brien. Winning trainer, Aidan O'Brien,

with a second victory. Huge sigh of relief, but you were expecting a

lot from this horse today? Absolutely. We felt we had him in a

place that he has never been in before with us. We've had him 18

months and it took me that time to learn to train him, so it's

incredible. If we went back and listened to everybody and to what

Mark was saying and what has been said in Australia about him and the

things to do and not to do, we did all those things and we took all

the information that probably took me a year and five months to start

listening to or six months, but listen, we listened to it in the

end and all the team at home, everybody involved, we felt he was

in a place today where he was never, ever in before, so obviously we

were delighted. You never irritated by bart's comments in regards to So

You Think? No, I was delighted to hear it because he was speaking

from the heart and obviously I was probably overworking the horse here

and trying to gallop the speed out of him instead of letting him with

natural the way he was and Joseph then was very much of the opinion

he was going to ride him that way and wait, because everyone was of

the opinion before he came to us he was all speed and I suppose I just

set off on the wrong leg and started trying to make him stay a

mile-and-a-half and probably overworked him and too long, and

too often. Instead of letting him be natural. It's a half thing. We

knew we only had a few runs left and we knew that he had run in all

the top races, but there was that little thing missing, so we knew we

only had today and maybe Sandown left. The lads were confident he

would come, but you can't be sure, but we felt he was in a place never

port of call. If he is going stud there's a cut-off point. That will

be their decision. They will talk about that and we will give their

input and that will be it. That will be their decision. I think at

Sandown we had it in our head that could have been a cut-off point.

Obviously we'll be pleading hard now but obviously it will be a big

decision and a lot of things are expected to happen whatever. We are

just delighted that we eventually got him back to where Bart had him.

And where all the people in Australia said he was. All I can

say is I'm sorry I took so long to get him to show it. He is one of

those special horses and he has that great travelling class and he

showed it today. The last thing I want to ask you is about the man

standing to your right, we've seen a lot of the two of you in the UK

this year. How did a ride did Joseph give So You Think today?

are delighted. We had spoken between ourselves and Joseph knew

what he wanted to do. Obviously I was delighted and thrilled. I can't

tell you, Rishi. Well done Aidan. Joseph, did Ryan Moore get the

first run on you down the inside? He quickened up very well. I got

the slip through on the inside and I had to come around Johnny. Once

my horse got to see him on the inside he was never going to be

beat. You seem to be close to the pace set by Robin Hood. Was it

important to get into the right thithle? I wanted to get into the

right rhythm. He relaxed great. Loads of class and pace. When

things work out he is an exceptional horse. It's been an

amazing season - the classics, the Derby, and now a Royal Ascot winner

I'm lucky to be able to ride some nice horses. I owe big thanks to

all the owners for giving me nice opportunities to ride some good

horses. And Mr and MrsS O'Brien. Well done. Thank you. Sir Michael

Stoute with the Queen, talking through what happened there. He

said afterwards to reporters that they knew they were up against a

really good horse in So You Think. They knew he would be very hard to

beat and they have no excuses. I think Carlton House has won an

outstanding race and has been beaten by a really good horse. An

extraordinary interview by Aidan O'Brien basically admitting he has

been getting it wrong, that they've been riding the horse too much for

stamina and not for speed. I said that on air last year. This horse

has tremendous turn of foot. Because he's such a big horse and

he is by High Chaparral, obviously at home he's a bit cold and laid

back. They've been getting the wrong impression of him. But he is

a big horse. In Australia, the ground is pretty firm and he was

winning over seven furlongs in Group 1 company, so he's obviously

got a lovely turn of foot. What a year Derek Smith has had. He saw

his colours carried to victory in the Investec Oaks and the

Coronation Cup and the Derby and now in the Prince Of Wales Stakes,

as he soars past the 100 Group 1 winners' market. I think that's the

grandson, Max Wachman's son. I think that's him. I hope I'm right.

And Michael Tabor. The presentation being made by Her Royal Highness

the Princess Royal, whose daughter, Zara Phillips, has been selected to

ride in the Olympics, on a horse called High Kingdom. Like a little

pony, he can turn and she can pull him up quickly. It will be very

good for Greenwich. They've selected horses that are suited to

that track, and that does make a difference. And they've got the

Derby winner in Camelot, this team. So You Think, you would think one

more run and then down to Australia to stand at stud at Coolmore down

there. Coolmore is a fantastic stud. They've got the most marvellous

stallions Galileo and before Galileo was the great Sadler's

Wells. Galileo looks as though he's going to take Sadler wells' crown

and put more notches on it. It is an amazing piece of island down

there, is it in Tipperary? Yes, it is. This horse has is one from High

Chaparral, another Derby winner. sounded if in those interviews that

it was Joseph who said what you have been saying for a year, Willie,

that I will wait for turn of foot. He waited until the Queen's horse

showed his face and then went for it. Joseph was a very good event

rider. His two sisters are as well, and his two brothers are keen as

well. They ride ponies and go show jumping from a young age. Joseph,

although he is tall, is keeping his weight down certainly well enough

to ride at 9 stone in these races. There's a lot of jockeys in the

Weighing Room who wish he would go back to that. Fantastic success.

We've heard plenty of the winner So You Think and the runner-up,

Carlton House. Let's look at Farhh, the principal of the Godolphin

horses in the race, and Frankie Dettori's mount. He is in stall 8.

This is a little way before the start. He does try to rear up twice,

Mick. I had a word with Frankie Dettori and he said they fell out

of the stalls when they opened and he felt they were struggling after

that. Only his fourth race and a bold move. He came here, and no

disrespect to racing at Thirsk, but a handicap there isn't the same as

a Group 1 at Royal Ascot is it? but it shows he is a really

progressive type. Frankie's face told the story. Early on, they

didn't go that fast. I got the impression that making the

pacemaker got a shout from O'Brien. They very bunched up. You can see

Johnny Murtagh is keen to make them go faster on the American horse.

Let's look where they were at this stage. The winner, So You Think is

there, and Carlton House is in second and Farhh is third, and

Redact is -- Reliable Man is at the back. They are going to come

different sides and Frankie doesn't get the best of runs through.

got stopped twice. It cost him any chance of winning the race. His

horse was running a blinder. Gerald Mosse on the other hand said he

felt it didn't help him but he felt his horse ran a very good race.

Very pleased with him. Ryan Moore on Carlton House, a word with him.

He said this horse is running a blinder. He got all the breaks in

the race. He was just beaten bay very good horse. We know the winner

is very good and that's another group 1 for him. Carlton House, it

can't be far away now can it? So You Think is no longer going be

racing in Europe after early July I think it is, so thats the way for

him, so long as he can avoid Frankel. You can't win everything

in life. Without a shadow of a doubt. That's the big race of the

day, the Prince Of Wales Stakes. Look ought for Farhh and maybe

Carlton House will get that Group 1, but let's hope they avoid Frankel.

Thing will be number one on their list and everybody else's list as

well. A wonderful day here at Ascot. Beautiful sunshine in which people

have been enjoying all of the scenes that make this a sporting

occasion like no other. That mixture of racing and fun as well.

racing. You are from Berkshire? am from Berkshire and I have been

here a lot. As an 18-year-old I came in with my friends would have

a few drinks. Now I'm lucky enough to be up here suited and booted and

having a few glasses of champagne. Time's changed. And you are here

with your family today? I'm here with my lovely mum, Eileen, she's

incredibly busy but you recently launched something amazing for kids.

Tell us about the enterprise. launched an enterprise academy. I

developed an enterprise curriculum and we've now got 35 colleagues up

is something really close to my heart and it is really working.

Have you got anything in the next one? I haven't actually, but I'm

We need to ask your mum. Actually she does know. She is sitting over

of horses taking -- with some connections of horses taking part

in this. I read your Twitter account this morning and you were

saying how nervous you were. This is a horse I know James has always

thought a lot of. James has always liked Dimension. He was a little

disappointing early last year and Kieren came and rode him here at

the back end and he made all, which I doubt he'll be doing today,

Johnny, but he won nicely. He's just gone on improving. He was

gelded over the winter and we think that's been the making of him.

Johnny and James have a great record at Ascot haven't they?

Johnny likes riding James' horses when he says he should be on them

and James obviously likes putting Johnny up. How are the nerves now?

Pretty bad. I won't keep you any longer. Thank you very much. Off

you go. Alan Shearer has a runner in the race. You will have seen him

last night chatting away about a good day for England football.

great day. Not many people said we could win the tournament but the

further we two and the performance have to face Germany, if we win. My

favourites. Nice and easy. I wish we didn't. You've got

Justonefortheroad. Horse done well. Pretty well this season. It's won

seven times, so we are lucky guys, those who own it. There are a lot

of guys who never have winners and we've had seven. Great to be here.

Royal Ascot in the sun. Tell us what happened at York, because you

have won a couple. Was it a sign that it may be a bit harder?

think so. We were told that after that we'll get to some great tracks

but might not win too many, so we are happy to be here. What do you

think of the horse? Very nice horse. What else can he say? He's bigger

than me and don't forget how good he is with the head. Briefly, what

was your paddock pick? I didn't have one. Too many of them. Thank

you very much. You've been a great help. Alan, nice to see you. Cheers,

I'm not surprised because he's supported by plenty, but a huge

move for the gelding, who is trained by James Fanshaw. We'll

look at Edinburgh Knight. Trained by Paul Darcy. This has been the

plan. It certainly has. I really like this horse. To me, it smells

of a plot, when you get a horse that is laid out and they tell you

you can't win the previous race. This fella did that. Paul Darcy's

not hiding the fact that he really holds this horse in high regard.

There is Prince Of Johanne, the grey there. 50-1 winner in the

Cambridgeshire last season and I'm pretty sure should be on the

shortlist. Without a shadow of a doubt. John Fahy has had a lot of

good runners. Tom has had good results on the flat too. This horse

beaten last time. Huge field. Maximum field of 30 runners and

difficult to get around them all. We'll try to pick out a few. You

see Demention there down at the start. Absolutely fine. There,

captain Bertie. William Carson, Willie's grandson on board. Indeed.

Indeed. Willie, when I asked him about his grandson, riding a wen

eer, he said, "-- a winner, he said, "I hope so. I'm not sure." They was

fourth in the Spring Mile and won the Spring Cup at Newbury. The good

ground should suit. I don't know how influential the draw is going

to be. I suspect very. Kieren Fallon, here's a money coming in.

He won this on Yeast and Caribbean Man ark. I saw George Baker here.

Prior to this, racing in Dubai. This fella, much travelled, but the

money is telling you something. thought Cai Shen looked

particularly relaxed walking around the paddock. Big, honest head on

this horse. Trained by Richard Hannon who is waiting for his first

winner of the week. Second in the Britannia and second in the Winter

Derby. Yes. He won at Doncaster on similar ground. I know they're

hopeful. Richard Hannon senior looked disappointed, but pleased

with his charges yesterday. Godolphin horses are running well.

Particularly, I think, Farhh in the last race, really ran on and

Bridgefield here is the ride of Mickael Barzalona, who is linking

up so much with the horses trained by Mamood al-Zarooni. Another horse

to come out of the York race. This horse ran well on that occasion.

Like you say, have we seen the tide turn for Godolphin? It needs to.

600 horses. It's been a bit too quiet. This is Bonnie Brae for

David Elsworth and Ryan Moore. eye-catching jockey, because Ryan

will have had the choice of several mounts. His agent is absolutely red

hot. He had that big handicap winner yesterday. Dimension is

going to go off favourite at 5-1. Dimension is going to be coming out

of stall seven, so on the far side, as we look at them. Dimension is

the big gamble. It's Frankie going forward on board inadvisable man,

who won two years ago and runs well. He'll be up there again I suspect,

but not too many more to go forward. 30 for Jim to get through. There's

Johnny Murtagh on this heavily backed favourite, Dimension. Don't

have the best of records. I can remember Bankable a few years ago

for the Luca Cumani stable. Red-hot favourite. Going forward now is

Excellent Guest, Tom Queally. There is Johnny. 30 runners here at the

mile. A charge up the straight. Coming forward now. On the near

side is Fair Trade. Just arms linked behind this one. Coming

forward now. Prince Of Johanne nearest the camera. You can see

that that stall's blanket is supposed to give the horse a little

security and comfort and confidence, but it's not working at the moment.

Fair Trade really doesn't want to know here. Darryll Holland is the

rider. Now, they put the blindfold on as a last attempt to try to

encourage this horse to come forward. He's almost in. They've

got him now, I think. That's just about it. Fair Trade's in. They're

set to go. Stand by. They're ready for the Hunt Cup. They're racing.

Away to a fair start. One of the first aways with Brae Hill in the

centre as they split into two and over on the far side we can see

Boogy Shoes there and Arabian Star and up there too showing plenty of

speed is Rock Critic. Just behind them follows Justonefortheroad.

Also there as well as Boom And Bust on the near side, as we focus on

Brae Hill up there. Now they seem to have converged, the two. On the

near side Belgian Bill is not that far away and Capaill Liath showing

speed. Trade Storm there and doupbt call me, but Brae Hill takes them -

- Don't Call Me, but Brae Hill takes them along. Boom And Bust

there. In behind them is Capaill Liath. Followed then by Trade Storm

and they were followed then by Mull Of Killough and Rock Critic on the

far side. Coming up the stands rail now, starting to make some ground

here, as they come up now towards half-way. Steamy thunder getting

through as they race up on to the course and they are all in the

centre of the course. They are fighting it out. Capaill Liath

there too. Now Prince Of Johanne coming there on the stands rail.

Brae Hill out in the sent are. Don't Call Me and also Dimension --

out in the centre. Don't Call Me and also Dimension. Don't Call Me

and Dimension. On the near side, Excellent Guest and also Prince Of

Johanne. Don't Call Me being grabbed by Prince Of Johanne.

Prince Of Johanne going home best of all. Then Excellent Guest. In

third then is Don't Call Me. Tight for fourth. Field Of Dream and

inadvisable man. Cai Shen not that far away. A gap then to Stevie

Thunder and Bonnie Brae. Going across the line is Bridgefield.

Prince Of Johanne has got the money at 16-1. Ridden by John Fahy. The

Cambridgeshire winner has now done it in the Hunt Cup. Two of the

biggest handicaps in the calendar. Won it by half a length from

Excellent Guest in second. Don't Call Me in third. In fourth on the

stands rail, Field Of Dream. In fifth, inadvisable man. Sixth, Cai

Shen and Stevie Thunder and eighth Dimension and Capaill Liath and

tenth Man Of Action and they were followed by Belgian Bill on the

near side, who was up there for a fair way. Captain Bertie showed

pace. Abbackia not far away and Brae Hill, who was an early pace

setter. Then Boom And Bust is further back. Edinburgh Knight

never got into it. They were followed then by Rock Critic and

King Torus and further back in the field then Bonnie Brae. Then full

of Killough and then a gap to Justonefortheroad and then Fair

Trade, the horse who played up before the start and delayed them.

Boogy Shoes, who showed plenty of pace, then Common Touch and then a

long gap to Arabian Star, who showed speed and coming some way

behind them was Trade Storm, but there, no doubt about the winner,

it is official and the winner is number eight, Prince Of Johanne,

ridden by John Fahy. Trained by Tom Tate for David Story. Second is

number 23, Excellent Guest, Tom Queally. Third number 30, Don't

Call Me, Sam Hitchcock and Field Of Dream, ridden by Jamie Spencer.

John and Tom a first. A first Royal Ascot with Prince Of Johanne, who

we talked beforehand before. Horses have to be prepared for a big

handicap like this and this horse was. Just one run so far this year.

Turned up here and win it, job done. Thank you very much. Yeah. Indeed.

A great day for John. There is no bigger stage for Royal Ascot. Just

lost his claim. Only his 15th winner of the season. That will

tell you how big a launch pad this will be. Lovely ride. Changes hands.

Given the horse a little flick here and this horse as gone away and won

well. At this stage you are desperate for the line to come.

Exactly, because fast finishers like Jamie Spencer. Finishing

really well there on Field Of Dream, who eventually is fourth. John Fahy

has now ridden this horse four times and won on him three times,

so it's a partnership that works. He has judged that really well,

because it's a long way with that many runners. Absolutely. You saw a

few of the horses that jumped smartly and they were burned off

very quickly. Some bookmakers pay on the first five, so it's vital to

note that number one, inadvisable man was fifth. -- Invisible Man,

was fifth. The time was not that far out of the record. 1.08 outside

the record. John has had success here before. Promising young rider.

An enormous thrill for him. He comes back in. Prince Of Johanne,

winner of the Cambridgeshire. That was new mark the over nine. That

was the back end of the year, last September. Obviously a very able

performer. You need a lot of luck and a lot of ability in these big

fields and handicaps to win. Not only that, you need to be always a

little bit ahead of the handicapper as well. On this occasion, Prince

Of Johanne, he started from stall 33. Now if you are looking and you

see there is only 30 runners, it's because the draw is done before the

emergencies or the reserves are photograph taken about John Fahy

and Prince Of Johanne, as Jim said, has completed a rare double, the

Cambridgeshire and the Hunt Cup. It's rare that horses tend to go up

in the handicap, but this horse has clearly got some more improvement

to do or had some. Whether he'll go on from here is the new question,

because he'll have to take on better company after this. Tom Tate,

the gentleman standing in the top hat there. He's over to the left of

the horse, or right depending on which side you are looking from,

this is his first winner of the season. Tom, just saying your first

winner of the season and couldn't have picked a better spot? I only

train good horses, you know? good meetings? Yeah. Well, he's a

grand horse now and he's a bit better over the mile. Showed a lot

of speed to win the mile and won on the Cambridgeshire and his form's

there. I was filling air time that it's a rare double, because it's

difficult to win at the end of one season. 1949 it says in the paper,

one of the pundits has put, so I thought it was a bit of a damp

message. He has found improvement since Newmarket. Was that something

you expected? Well, the mile suits him and the stiff mile and fast

ground and John rides him well. He's a very good rider. Just before

we have a word, can I ask you what plans you have, because now you

have to take him into much better company than handicaps. We'll live

for today. Let's live for today. Perhaps next year you can have

another Royal winner with Prince Of Johanne. Well done. Even better.

Thank you very much. John, your celebrations were enjoyable. You

seemed to relish the success. Exactly. I remember a couple of

years ago, even last season, I was watching these races at home, so it

means an awful lot to someone young like myself to get a winner here.

Your first Royal winner on a horse that means a lot to you as well,

giving you some great days. Exactly. He's very close to my heart. He has

given me the Cambridgeshire and the winner here. I can't tell which one

is better to be honest. Tell me about the race, because for a

moment they were split into two and those on the far side joined you.

You were down in 33 close to the stand side. Do you think that was

as much of a benefit as anything else? To be honest, I don't think

so, because all the pace was on the far side. My lad, he likes to have

a little space and just be running with you. When I won the

Cambridgeshire I kicked him in the belly really soon, but today I have

a big thanks to give to John Reid and Richard Quinn, because to be

fair they've helped me out and given me some of their secrets of

riding here. John, it's often said the best way to advertise yourself

is to let your riding do the talking. Exactly. This is a very

important, because I lost my claim last season. Clive Cox has been

very, very good to me and Nicky Adams, so hopefully it's onwards.

Well done. Thank you. presentation for the Cup being made

by Her Royal Highness, the Countess of Wessex, wear colours similar to

Prince Of Johanne's colours. The owners going up to receive that

small Gold Cup. The double for the first time since 1949. There are

always going to be unlucky stories in this. We are going to look

Atfield of dream, because this was a field of nightmares for his

supporters. He is going to come out of here. Or take his time and look

for Sylvestre De Souza's horse, Man Of Action. From the stall up there,

Field Of Dream, he doesn't want to come out. He missed it. He missed

it completely. He ends up finishing fourth on this side. More of that

later. The other horse, that missed the kick. It may be excusable,

because some of the horses will have been there for a long time.

Exactly. It's a fact of life. have to accept that. You get the

horses that do get left. It's incredible how they've all started

to go Oneway and then the other. They all end up congregating in the

middle of the course. There is Field Of Dream, but we'll jump on

40 seconds or so. Here's the closing stages. Here is the winner.

Sorry, Field Of Dream. Dimension over there. As it turns out, ever

chance, but doesn't have horses to go with him. He was on the far sigh.

Come straight from the draw. He wasn't good enough. No excuses for

him at all. The second horse is coming through there. He was never

very far off the pace. Here you go. What's he doing down on this side.

Now he has come down here and he has switched on the Turbo and

finished so fast you would have thought if he had kept straight he

might even have won. However, he has had the benefit of not being up

there early on racing and relaxing, because he missed the break.

didn't think they went that fast. It was a good gallop. Obviously,

the way that horse is finishing, everybody is slowing down at the

finish. They are. We have shown you it. It will be a lot shorter price

next time out, but if he runs in the next ten days or so you might

want to have a few quid on Field Of Dream. The one horse is Excellent

Guest, because we are hearing he might be in the Buckingham Palace

on Friday. So close. Such tight margins between victory and defeat.

Even though he's so proud, he's gutted with the other. Two pounds

too much. Mick, before you started as a jump jockey you worked in a

couple of yards. Were you ever allowed to be travelling head lad?

I did some travelling for John jenkins when he was stuck. I wasn't

very good. Most of theing travelling head lands have been --

most of the travelling head lads have been doing it for years. It's

true of this lad, Jeff. This is his day yesterday, which started very

early at the stables. I'm in charge of the horses from the time they

leave to the time they get home. Give them the best chance to win

the race and get them home in one piece. Englishman. Funk Soul

can borrow everything else. Passports there. We'll pack them

Drop the colours in there and go back and make sure everything is OK

and get some lunch. Then it's time to get changed and get going for

the afternoon. He looked like he could do something, but didn't get

home. Disappointing, but live to fight another day. Pack the gear up

and load up and an hour after these have run we'll be on the road back

home again. All in a day's work, yeah. Terrific scenes here in the

grandstand. On the lawns, people drinking and counting up their

winnings and maybe their losses in some cases too. 20,000 capacity for

it's the best day. Very sunny and beautiful and nice, cool breeze, so

not too hot. We saw you quite recently Inthejungle, with our

Willie. Can you give us any secrets? I was looking forward to

doing it. I had never watched it, but I did want to do a boot camp

for my 60th birthday and people say to me did you learn anything and I

said, yes, do your homework, because actually I never watched it,

so - If you watched it, you wouldn't have gone on it, correct?

I'm not sure I wouldn't. I do like the hardship. The psychology is a

little harder to take, but I loved the hardship and the jungle. I like

to be under that circumstance. about Willie, did he pull his

weight? Oh, Willie was a blooming joy and for that small moment that

I was his queen or his princess or whatever it was, yeah!!!! He's

laughing. I've got to give him credit today because he gave me a

tip that won. Willie, where was my tip? He's nodding. He'll give you a

tip later on. Shall we look at some of the beautiful sights. Let's.

Here's some of the scenes. Let's have a look. Nice-looking fella

there. Wonderful colours, I have to say. I saw somebody earlier who was

in bright pink. She looks lovely. There's a love. Very Kate.

Beautiful. A lot of red. A lot of red with cerise, which actually one

thinks doesn't go together, but actually it does. That's rather

extraordinary. Personally, I think you should have a full hat if you

are older, because it stops top lighting. Listen, why do you think

I've got this perisher on for, because it stops total top lighting

on a sunny day. My age, gout to be aware. Your top tip is to wear a

full hat? If it's sunny. You got to think that sun is really high and

unless you are very young and beautiful, any top lighting is

going to drag, so I cover up. Lorraine, you are still beautiful.

Bless you. You are very kind. Tomorrow, I don't think it is going

to be sunny. If you are coming, probably bring a brolly. I think

probably tomorrow is not the time to have a big hat. I think it's

going to be a little windy. There you go. Fashion tips from Lorraine

jockey, so it don't sound bet. going to sit with you and watch

that. Thank you very much. Luck of the Irish. So many fillies in that

fillies are Irish too. She is trained in Lincolnshire and has a

very good chance. You were pleased to see Lorraine. She is one of the

most gentlest people I've ever met. She is so gentle. You feel she is

fragile and she is such a nice person. She is having a Loveday

here and those that have come on the second day, this is what

trained by an O'Brien. His first win had a sting in the tail because

of a seven day ban because of use of the whip.

William Buick described Joviality as tough and genuine as she came

home in front in the Windsor Forest Stakes, beating Chachamaidee.

One serious puntser had �100,000 even money on so. So this was the

moment he knew he had collected double that. So You Think beat

Carlton House to give Joseph O'Brien his first Royal Ascot

winner. 30 horses in the Royal Hunt Cup and

in front of them all was 16-1 shot Prince Of Johanne. The first horse

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 41 seconds

since 1949 to do the Cambridgeshire Andy, our speed man. I have to doff

my cap. You picked the winner, Prince Of Johanne. To be fair he

ran at work, ran a big race. I clocked all the horses on that

three-day meeting. Two seconds quicker than anything else, so I'm

thinking this form looks solid, Navajo Chief won at York, so that

gave me a solid background for this horse. Well done you. How have you

gone about this race? From a spread perspective what you are looking at

is two-year-olds that have run akin to the older horses on the same

card. If it is a strongly run race, and if the sectional times are good,

that tells you we are dealing with high class horses. There are three

or four that fit that criteria. What are they? Graphic Guest, who

who is coming off a good time at Windsor. She's also had a run here

at the track. The only horse that's had a course and distance win. I

think putting two and two together that's a major positive. Anything

else to look out for? The favourite, Mironica. A high class filly. Did a

good run it's a Naas. She clocked the same time in the sectionals as

Dawn Approach, which won here yesterday. If an older filly can do

that as well as the colts, you are looking at a dent horse.

A couple of different prices. Satsuma, finished second at

Musselburgh, and I think the horse that beat it runs tomorrow, called

Ahern. It is Graphic Guest for you? 8-1.

That's a fairly solid each-way bet. You can't have two winners on the

clock? They say a broken clock is right twice a day. A few of these

fillies very much on their toes as the jockeys get the leg up and they

realise it is time to go. Graphic Guest won a maiden on soft ground

here an her second start and then had a decent performance to beat

Hairy Rocket, who is in this race. How could you call a horse Hairy

Rocket, a filly called Hairy Rocket! Graphic Guest beat her at

Windsor last time. She's a big, strong filly. You picked her out.

picked this one out in the paddock. Walking around, without looking at

names, she it was one I picked out. It she's ran three times, had

experience, won twice. The ground today is a bit firm. Her trainer

has won this three times. He's now with Rishi. He's got a great record

in this race. He was telling me a moment ago he tipped the winner on

the Red Button last night. A lot to live up to. Yeah, he better tip my

own then hadn't I? You got two, Graphic Guest and Jillnextdoor.

They are both smashing fillies. I think they are both very good

fillies. It is hard to split them. They are going to be different

sides of the track. Pick on Graphic Guest first of all, she won a

couple of races in smaller fields. Will she be alright in bigger

fields today? She'll be alright. Across the course today anything

could happen. I don't know how the horse is going to pan out, but who

does? They are two of the best two- year-old fillies in the country. I

will be disappointed if they are not in the first half dozen, both.

You are teaming the up with your old sparring partner Craig Williams

with Jillnextdoor? He rides a horse of mine in the Norfolk. I thought I

would give him the practise, the cheeky one. Thank you. Not a

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 41 seconds

to the post for our final live race on BBC TV today. BBCi for the

5.35pm race. You are learning English? Yes, it is hard but I try

my best. We remember you from last year in the Derby and a Dubai World

Cup winner. Big wins for you already. Yes, If it is a very good

chance for me, a good horse. I'm very happy. Tomorrow, last year,

you haven't got a Royal Ascot yet but last year you were second on

Opinion Poll. Is he in good order? He's in good form. He tries hard

all the time. I hope the best for tomorrow. OK. And English racing,

is it good or is French better? no, it's good. Many in France is

more tactic. OK. Here is... They go faster earlier here. Yes, go fast

early, but it's a good chance for me for know everything in different

country. Thank you for talking to us. Good luck tomorrow. We hope you

get that first Royal Ascot soon. Thank you. I'm with Michael Owen

who is associated with the Tom Dascombe stable and, of course,

football. Tom's got two runners, Ceiling Kitty and Upward Spiral.

You are involved in the ownership of Upward Spiral. A great pedigree,

exciting filly. Yes, my partner, Andrew Black, owns Ceiling Kitty, a

lovely filly. She's won a listed race. At home this one goes

particularly well. Yeah, a group of us owned it before today. Qatar

bloodstock bought it off us two weeks ago, so we still remain with

an involvement today. We lose it in many ways in terms of ownership but

it is great they are leaving it with our yard. That's fantastic.

It's a difficult race to win, because obviously there's so much

untapped potential, but you say she goes well at home. As Tom knows,

good two-year-olds, has he given you impression she's good? Yeah,

she's very good. She's as good, when you talk to him she's as good

as he's ever train inside terms of fillies. He says she's the quickest

filly he's trained, so we are hoping she is going to put up a

good show. I must leave you and go to our betting site. A quick word

on how you think England are getting on? We got through with

flying colours. I'm particularly grateful to get Italy in the next

round, even though it's going to be tough. It is far better than Spain.

It's nice, a lot of people have said it is probably the toss of a

coin who goes through, us or Italy. If you are playing Spain it would a

tall order, but hopefully we can gain confidence and play a top team

in the final and we'll be in a better position. We've had Shearer,

owen and -- Owen and Shannon on the programme today. Good luck.

Graphic Guest looks as good cantering as she did walking. She's

getting a little keen. She looked short necked there but didn't look

like that going round the paddock. She's tucking her head in there.

The jockey looks very big. He is quite Taw though, Martin Harley.

He's having a great season. The first classic success for Martin

and the first in Britain or island for Mick Shannon. He's one of the

stars that's come forward this year in the Jockeys' Stakes. This filly

looks OK going to epost. Let's look at a few of the others. In the

centre is Jadanna. This is the filly that Lorraine Chase tipped

earlier and could give Frankie his first winner of the week. We were

talking about how he is getting plenty of winners for outside

trainers. She won a quick race in the Hillary Need ler, Stakes. She

won that. The form of the race isn't quite good, but she's a very

good quick filly. I would imagine she's going to run a very good race

here for Frankie. You never know, might give Frankie a winner. Might

This is the poor filly that's saddled with the name Hairy Rocket.

You don't like that do you? I think it is disrespectful. The hair goes

back when she rides fast. Richard Hughes has opted to ride Jubilee

Diamond for Joe Wood, but I think this filly could - you never know.

It is difficult to choose isn't it? The Hannon two-year-olds have been

getting beat. They are not winning. They usually win at this meeting.

They will be hoping one of their failies today will take the Hannons

on the board. Mironica is our favourite 5-1.

Not many more to go forward. We have a field of 2. Two-year-old

fillies. They'll be flying down the fiver. She won at Naas, beat her

stable companion, who was beaten by one of the Hannon fillies, so

Richard Hannon, would have an idea where he's going. Only a few to go

forward now. Graphic Guest, this was a few moments ago. There is

Martin Harley in the stalls there. She just gets a little bit

fractious. You can see from the stalls camera she wants to get down

in the stall. That was a few moments ago. She's OK now. Madam

Mojito is going to be the last to go forward. A big field here of 2

two-year-old fillies. You don't often get this in the Queen Mary

Stakes. They are ready. And they are racing!

Away to a fair start. On the stands rail one of the first away. All Fur

Coat going very fast. Madam Mojito is out there as well. Belle

Intrigue not that far away. Sharaarah also in that group on the

far side. Coming up the nearside it is Starlight Angel, who knows the

wade. Up there too in the early stages Lady Phill showing plenty of

dash. They are strched across the track. It is All Fur Coat on the

far side, from Madam Mojito up there as well, as Satsuma, followed

in fourth position by Ceiling Kitty. On the near side the group are led

by Hairy Rocket, who is in company with Upward Spiral. Battling on is

Miss Diva and Lasilia. On the far side it is Ceiling Kitty who shows

the way from Satsuma. Also Jadanna. Hairy Rocket and now flashing home

down the outside at 100 miles per hour Hoyam. But Ceiling Kitty gets

the money from Hoyam in second. In third is Hairy Rocket, followed by

Upward Spiral and jihad jafpltd further back in the field is

Jillnextdoor, from Satsuma. They followed by Lasilia. On the stands

side Miss Diva is there as well. One of the last to pull up is

Modern Lady. But Ceiling Kitty in the colours of Burt Black and the

master betters has won it for Tom Dascombe. Ridden by Richard

Kingscote. Happy scenes in the enclosure. You heard what Michael

Owen had to say before about Ceiling Kitty, a degree of

confidence there. Certainly some encouragement. Ceiling Kitty has

won the Queen Mary Stakes. The one that was flashing home was Hoyam

down the stands rail. Came from nowhere. Hairy Rocket got third

Fourth smile smile, in fifth was Jadanna. Lasilia ran a big race on

the nearside. Forefollowed by Satsuma. Up the top of the screen

Jillnextdoor was there for a long way. And Madam Mojito, who showed

pace. They were followed next by Threes Grand. On the nearside next

we see Miss Diva. And then at the top of the screen is Excellent

Guest in company with Baileys Jubilee. Lady Phill not that far

away. Mironica not sighted. Sharaarah was behind a wall of

horses on the far side. Star Up In The Sky up in the sky is next. They

were followed by Projectisle, who never got into it. All Fur Coat was

showing pace but got weary. They were followed by Jubilee Diamond.

Then Starlight Angel showed pace on the stands rail. Then Graphic Guest.

Then Masarah. And then Melodee Princess. Then Ballesteros was

about for the or Firth early, and then Modern Lady crossing the line

next. The winner is number four, Ceiling

Kitty, a filly by Red Clubs. Ridden by Richard Kingscote. Started at

for Tom Dascombe. Ceiling Kitty has been a revelation. She has been so

good for you Tom? Yeah. Not just for me but Andrew Black, who bred

her. Awesome. Richard Kingscote, fantastic. He didn't exactly pick

her. I think it was picked for him. He was pretty confident that she

had experience and that she was hard as nails. She is. The other

filly's run brilliant, but there's nothing in the race fast enough

this side to lead her. Michael was saying that you said how good she

was. I think upward spiral is the better horse, just not today.

That's the way it goes, but I want to say this is all about Andrew

Black. That's it really. He's been an amazing sport to -- support to

me and to get a winner here is incredible. Andrew, your trainer

was just singing your praises. He was saying what a fantastic

supporter to the stable you've been and what a fantastic moment this is

for you personally, because you've bred this filly too. It's my first

proper home bred. I claimed the mother for 17 grand. I'm a bit

speechless, I'm sorry. It's perfectly understandable. I was

also told that a share in the filly was offered as part of a

competition, is that right? I knew she was good, so I put half up of

her on betfair for the year and they gave four eighth shares away

in a competition. When I put her in I didn't know she was as good as

she was, but when we found out I felt good, because at least they're

getting a proper horse for their money. That's great. Four people

here who have had an amazing experience. Both of you look like

you are going through some enjoyable emotions at the moment.

Is it possible to describe? I don't know. I feel very shaky. I don't

know. I don't know what to say. Tom? Look, I mean, this is what

it's all about, isn't it? I want to say a real big well done to the

jockey as well. He's a real, good lad. He's brilliant. Well done.

Thank you. Third Royal Ascot winner for Tom and Richard. They teamed up

last year with brown panther and Rhythm Of Light. You can remember

Michael Owen last year. The same for Andrew Black. The first he's

bred and come out to win. He's got a scientific interest how he

matches up stallions with mares and Andrew Black also the co-founder of

betfair, so a man whose life has changed completely over the last

ten or 12 years. Ceiling city, she hangs in the -- Kitty, hangs in the

closing stages, but her time is amazing. It's just outside the

record time for the five furlongs here, which if she had stayed

straight she would have set a new record. Very possibly. Richard

Kingscote, he should be thanking Hayley Turner, because Hayley made

the pace on the far side and the pace of the whole race was way over.

Look at Tom. Hats off, literally. They're enjoying that. Here is

Michael watching this. The other filly's run well. Finished fourth.

She is by Teofilo and she will be better over the distance. This

winner, Ceiling Kitty is by Red Clubs. It has run four times. This

is the fifth run of the season. So she knew how to do it and she got a

good lead from All Fur Coat, which helped her to win and all the

others horses, the second and third, they were drawn on this side of the

track and they had a race, but the winner, as you said, Clare, if she

had kept straight would have had a better time, but she was getting to

the end of her tether. Fantastic time set by her. The ground

quickening and she is having a nice big drink of water. Here's the

red button. We'll bring you the Sandringham Handicap, the final

race of the day. Willie, you were saying that Richard could win that?

He's riding a nice filly here in the last race, that I was speaking

to him about earlier on. He didn't know which of the two-year-olds

were the best. He didn't get the choice of either, so - Switcher. So,

tomorrow, just to cut you off. Switcher in the next race. Tomorrow

we are on air at 1.45pm. Our feature race is the oldest race of

the whole meeting. The Gold Cup. What wins that? Oh, good question.

You know, because you've got Fame And Glory, would be the horse you

would have to think would win, but there's another Irish horse of John

Oxx's coming over something Rock. Sadler's Rock? Very, very nice

horse. You can join us for that from 1.45, but if you can't get

enough and you want to see whether Richard can follow up in the last

then press the red button. From all of us here at Royal Ascot on day

two, where So You Think charged home for his tenth Group 1 success

to takes the Prince of Wales and give Joseph O'Brien a debut success,

we wish you goodbye and good Summer breeze, make me feel fine
