Ascot
3.50 My 2 against the field for the Victoria Cup are Mabait and Well Painted. The former hasn’t won for getting on for 2 years but as a result is well handicapped on his best form. The ground will suit although he does not have a favourable draw. Well Painted is lightly raced and looks to have further improvement in him. The stable are going well and he has a decent draw. He is yet to run on fast ground.
Haydock
2.25 Hanseatic was beaten a neck at Windsor on only his second career start. He will have learned from that run and can go one better here.
4.05 Pintura is probably best at this trip and has a sporting chance. The ground could be a negative though.
