Jaipaletemps ran well at Worcester yesterday to finish second, his best run in Britain so far. He probably would prefer softer ground, especially over two miles but he hit the line strong and just bumped into a well handicapped rival on this occasion. The winner landed a hat-trick and there is probably more to come from that five year old. If the weather continues to remain dry, there is a race back at Worcester over 2m4f that we could aim for.

The stable has one runner today, Jaipaletemps who goes in the opening race on the Worcester card at 2.40pm and Jack Tudor rides. He runs in the two mile handicap chase and is looking to build on his latest third placing at Ffos Las. This is his second run since a wind operation and the handicapper has given him a little more help so I would like to think he will give the favourite something to think about. He is a three time chase winner in France but has not shown that form to date but fingers crossed we can see more this afternoon. He would prefer softer conditions but does handle this ground fine.

Royal Ascot Begins
Royal Ascot gets underway today and what a week of racing we have to look forwards to. The first race is the Queen Anne Stakes due off at 2.30pm and it is a mouth watering race over a mile to start the meeting. Rosallion is favourite for the Richard Hannon team with Sean Levey on board. The colt is 2 from 2 at Ascot and won at the meeting last year so I think he will take all the beating, especially with a significant non-runner Sardinian Warrior.

There are four flat meetings today in Britain at Carlisle, Chepstow, Windsor and Wolverhampton. In Ireland there is a jumps fixture at Kilbeggan. The stable does not have any runners. We are of course on the eve of Royal Ascot and today we have the Goffs Royal London sale where there are 30 lots on offer and buyers have the chance to purchase a Royal Ascot runner. Last year over £4 million was spent at the sale and this year the high profile horses on offer include Tropical Speed (entered in the Norfolk Stakes on Tuesday for Andrew Balding), Monteille (entered in the King Charles Stakes on Tuesday for Mario Baratti), Ghostwriter (who is likely to have an entry on Saturday for Clive Cox) and Montpellier.
