Crowley Calls it: “Mojito is my standout ride of the day”

The French horse has some good Group One form as he was second in the French Derby.

If my horse runs to his best we may be able to pick up some place money so we are not afraid to take our chance.

3.00 Ascot – Second Thought

My runner in this has a really good chance in the race.

He hasn’t run on anything softer than good but when you look at his breeding he is by Kodiac out of a Diktat mare so you’d say he probably wants a bit of cut in the ground.

He has been a little unlucky at times but hopefully he will run a big race. Blue Point is obviously the one we have to beat but we should be right there with him.

3.35 Ascot – Mojito 

I won on this horse at York and he looks a very progressive type.

He gave me a good feel when I won on him last time.

He has a Group Two entry later this month so William Haggas thinks a lot of him. He has done nothing wrong this season and is going in the right direction.

I’d say he is my standout ride of the day. We are in stall 18 which is standside so we may need a bit of luck from there but I think we will be ok.

4.10 Ascot – Urban Fox

This is a nice filly who won at Newmarket last year where she beat Unforgetable Filly from Hugo Palmer’s yard.

She will not mind any juice in the ground. I rode her early in her career in the Sweet Solera Stakes where she finished fourth.

She is rated 98 so she’ll need to step up but she should be placed at the very least.

4.45 Ascot – Justice Lady

I’ve not ridden this horse before but I have watched her a few times and she looks to be a strong traveller.

She is a hold up horse, has a nice weight on her back and we expect Ascot will suit her so she should have a good chance.
