    Two for tomorrow so far in case I miss prices. Reasoning later.

    3:10 Ascot - Kellys Eye - 1pt e/w @ 25/1 (Bet365)

    3:45 Ascot - Dyna Waltz - 1pt e/w @ 14/1 (WillHill)

    3:10 Ascot - Kellys Eye - 1pt e/w @ 25/1 (Bet365)

    Highly progressive 3 year old since joining the Brown yard after racing for Brain Smart as a two year old. He started this season off a mark of 72 and is now rated 94 which is tremendous progression. He placed on his first two efforts for his new yards then notched up a quick hat-trick at Ripon and was subsequently rated 96. He flopped on his last 4 runs, not beaten by far on any occasion but didn't get the result needed to seem "impressive" and I think that's why he's currently on offer at a crazy price of 25/1. He was hampered on his penultimate start at Ripon and finished 3l behind Gap Princess who is a good horse. Last time out he came 19th of 25 in the Ayr Silver Cup, on the face of it it looks a terrible run but he's a lot better than that and traveled well throughout and didn't get a clean run through despite looking likely to give a big challenge and even hit 2.62 in running, although I can't understand that. He was drawn high which is usually the place to be at Ayr but the low side seemed to be quicker with a lot of the higher drawn horses running poorly, more than likely due to a moderate pace being set stand side and a rapid gallop set on the other side. Kellys Eye was 8 lengths behind the winner in the end but with a clearer passage and a faster run race he'd of been a lot closer, in my opinion.

    The ground was very quick for Kellys Eye on the last 3 runs and with slower ground here I think he has a very good chance of getting one of the four places available at the very least. He likes to be raced tracking the leaders and he has the perfect position to attack from stall 15 of 16 and has a lot of the pace around him. The slower/softer ground and great draw will give Kellys Eye a good chance of placing if he runs to ability and with four places paid the 25's looks massive. There could still be more to come from this Noverre gelding and he should strip fitter for that run a week ago. Jamie Spencer takes the ride on this fellow for the first time which is interesting, he doesn't often ride for the Brown yard but from 4 rides he has 2 wins (50%) and a 2nd place. Spencer is riding reasonably well of late and despite a few poor rides he is certainly a positive for this horse and he should be able to get her settled in behind the leaders from this good draw and hopefully produce her late on as he can do so well at times, it's either that or he'll ruin her chances altogether. This is the only horse that the Brown yard send here tomorrow to a track they have only visited on 2 occasions before and I reckon they'll be expecting a good run from their progressive 3 year old. He certainly has a good chance with the ground softening and a good jockey on board and Kellys Eye is a 10/1 shot in my book so the 25's are absolutely huge, with 4 places paid being a big advantage assuming nobody pulls out as there is just a dead 16 runners at the moment. Could cause a shock and outrun his price tag. He's worth small each way stakes.

    3:45 Ascot - Dyna Waltz - 1pt e/w @ 14/1 (WillHill)

    Quite a good three year old filly who won the Lingfield Oaks trial beating Timepiece into second. She was upped from 7f to 11f miles that day and stayed on very well suggesting she'll stay this extra furlong, she showed a good attitude to win despite being off the bridle a good few furlongs out, she's very lightly raced with only 7 runs to her name and has plenty more to come. The ground is ideal for her today as anything too fast doesn't really suit her and if a little bit of cut stays in the ground it'll be even more suitable as she seems like the sort who'll enjoy a softer surface. Trained by John Gosden who has been in great form of late and has a good 14% strike rate at the course. William Buick gets the ride and he has been in great form since the last week of August with many a winner, if he can get her settled in behind the pace setters she has a good chance of going close here if staying the extra furlong, she looks a potentially classy sort over these middle distances and have that perfect mix of pace and stamina.

    She ran in the Group 2 Park Hill Stakes at Doncaster last time out, she was stepped up to 1m 6f for the first time. She challenged 2f out and looked a big danger but she didn't see out the trip and faded badly to come last, beaten by 30 lengths. She's now stepped back in trip to 1m 4f, which based on that Lingfield run, should be ideal for her. She wasn't seen for 4 months through injury and may just have needed that run at Doncaster to get back into the swing of things and now, 2 week on, she should prove fitter and will hopefully find a bit of form now dropped to Listed level. This Ascot track should suit her and she should get a race run to suit on possibly soft ground which I think she will appreciate, assuming the rain keeps coming. She ran here as a 2 year old over 1m in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile at this meeting last year and came 5th of 9 over a trip that she probably doesn't have the speed for, she only finished 3l behind the winner Hibaayeb who won the Group 2 Ribblesdale Stakes this year. If proving as good as she was early on in the season and it's just a case that she needed the run then I certainly think she can out run her price here and give a good account of herself, she's an 8/1 shot in my book so the 14's look big and with the stable form and conditions to suit it seems very generous to me.

    Back in time again. Busy day tomorrow.

    2:35 Ascot - Hypnotized - 2pts @ 5/1 (StanJames)

    Lightly raced 3 year old who has won twice from 8 runs so far in his short career, he has bundles of ability but has a tendency to pull hard and hang during his race. He is now stepped up from 1m to 1m 2f which I think could do the trick. Jamie Spencer is reunited with this colt and he has been the jockey that got the most out of him with form reading 1-1-4-2-0. The run where he didn't figure in the finish was in a hot handicap at this course on lightening quick ground where he was short of room and didn't get a clear run until the final furlong, he ran on that day to finish 17th of 27 but hadn't a hope of doing any better. He was then sent off 5/2 favourite last time out over a mile at Kempton but didn't travel throughout and finished 3.5 lengths back in 6th place. He is certainly a better horse than those runs suggest and the ground and extra trip today may just do the trick and bring more out of him. Cheekpieces were applied on his penultimate start and they are left on today for the 3rd race in a row. Since they were applied they seem to have stopped him from hanging and pulling hard and if Spencer can get him settled at the back of the field I think that the extra 2 furlongs could see him go very close, he is the sort that should appreciate a bit of give in the ground and with heavy showers at Ascot at the moment he could get that ground.

    Michael Bell doesn't come to Ascot too often and this is the only fellow he sends out here today, the last time he sent out one horse to this track was last month and that was a winner. Bell has said that Hypnotized is doing some good work at home and looking back to himself so I'm expecting a good run today and I doubt the 5/1 price will be around for too long come the morning. He has raced over 1m 1f on Good ground, he ran very well that day and came second just going down by a neck to Soul Station who hasn't run since. My selection was closing all the way to the line but couldn't get there and looked as if he'd stay another furlong, which he didn't get since. He was however 6 lengths ahead of the 3rd placed horse in that race, Beachfire, who has since notched up a hat-trick of wins off marks of 80, 85 and 91. That form looks very good to me and leads me to believe that the extra distance and slower ground is exactly what Hypnotized needs. He's also well in at the weights and has the highest official rating of the field and is certainly open to more improvement. All in all the 5/1 looks very generous and I've priced him up at 3/1. Rock N Roll Ransom is the big danger in my opinion and he's the reason it's only a small to medium stake on my selection as he's lightly raced and highly progressive but often runs into trouble but certainly warrants respect with Fallon back on board but I think with a clear run and taking to these conditions that the Michael Bell horse has all the ability and conditions needed to do well here and he's my selection for the race.
