2K to 10K Betting Challenge (Bet No 55 ) Sat 22nd June


2K to 10K Betting Challenge continues on Saturday on final day of the Royal meeting .

The betting bankroll stands at £2726 ,after I Can Fly finished third in Duke Of Cambridge stakes on Wednesday for small loss of £11.00.Stakes remain the same at £110.00  .

Moving on to Saturday ,going concentrate on the G2 Hardwicke Stakes at 3.40 .

9 runners declared for 12f Hardwicke stakes on ground described as good/soft.This looks cracking group two contest .The three main contenders look to be Defoe ,Masar & Southern France .

DEFOE : 5-Y-0 Grey Gelding ,winning 8 out 17 .Useful sort winning four group races,been in decent form this season,including finishing creditable second in G2 Jockey Club stakes at Newmarket.However produced career best effort last time ,winning the G1 Coronation Cup at Epsom.Still looks to be progressing ,solid claims returning to G2 company.

MASAR : 4-Y-0 Chestnut Colt .winning 4 out 9 .Had some very useful form last season ,including finishing third in 2000 guineas and winning the Epsom Derby .Suffered leg injury on eve of the Eclipse and not raced since last June .Obvious claims on his Derby form if fully wound up .

SOUTHERN FRANCE : 4-Y-0 Irish Bay Colt ,winning 2 out 9 .Consistent sort ,had some fair form last season ,including finishing second in Queens Vase at Royal Ascot & third in St Leger at Doncaster.Also finished creditable second in Yorkshire Cup at York last time behind Stradivarius.Each-way claims ,though drop in trip not ideal .

VERDICT : Derby winner Masar looks interesing runner on his belated return from injury,has gone well fresh in past,though will need to be close to his best to land this quality group two contest .Passed over on his return .

DEFOE should go well after landing the G1 Coranation Cup last time at Epsom,that looked decent effort beating St leger winner Kew Gardens .Will be suited returning to G2 company here, recieves no penalty for winning that G1 contest .Odds around 4-1 look fair value
