Royal Ascot - Royal Hunt Cup Tips

4.25 Royal Hunt Cup (Heritage Handicap) (Class 2) 1m straight.

This race, first run in 1843, provides one of the greatest spectacles of the Royal Meeting and carries a maximum field of runners. It is also one of the biggest betting races of the season.

Although BANKABLE may well win it is wise to keep in mind that he has had only 5 races to his portfolio.
BANKABLE trained by Luca Cumani, who is a stone well in and ridden by Frankie Dettori, is the biggest hotpot in the long history of the Royal Hunt Cup after James Fanshawe issued a statement last Tuesday that Artimo had suffered a setback. The shortest-priced winning favourite in the history of this race was Victor in 1863. However, it is worth noting that Luca Cumani has a terrible record at Royal Ascot so BANKABLE may not be so bankable after all? We shall see. I would also look at LANG SHINING or WE’LL COME @ e/w to run close.

Main bet: BANKABLE 7/4.
Next best: WE’LL COME 7/1 e/w.
