The Panel's Three Top 4 Selections For Royal Ascot Day One
- Underwriter 15:05 - 11/5 Top 4 Finish With Bet365
- Sons And Lovers 17:35 - 8/5 Top 4 Finish With Bet365
- My Mate Mozzie 18:10 - 11/8 Top 4 Finish With Bet365
Underwriter – 15:05 Coventry Stakes (Group 2) Top 4 @ 11/5
Underwriter only made his debut last month but looked well above average when winning at Ayr.
He travelled strongly, picked up well when asked, and put the race to bed comfortably.
He’s stepping into much deeper waters here, but everything about that debut suggested there’s more to come.
Connections know how to handle a good one, and if he builds on that first run, he’s got every chance of making the frame. A live Top 4 player at a nice price.
Sons And Lovers – 17:35 Hampton Court Stakes (Group 3) Top 4 @ 8/5
Sons And Lovers has quietly been putting together some strong runs this season.
He was a closing third in the Group 3 Alleged Stakes in April and then stayed on for fourth behind top-class rivals in the Group 2 Mooresbridge Stakes at the Curragh.
He ran in this very race last year too, so he knows the track.
That blend of course experience and solid Group-level form makes him one to keep firmly onside for a Top 4 finish.
My Mate Mozzie – 18:10 Copper Horse Stakes (Handicap) Top 4 @ 11/8
A staying handicap to close out Day One, and My Mate Mozzie brings a compelling profile to the table.
He ran a cracker in this very race last year, finishing third off just 1lb lower, and returns in similarly good shape.
With apprentice Warren Fentiman taking off 5lb, he's effectively better treated this time around.
Proven over trip and track, and with conditions to suit, he looks rock-solid to make the frame once again.
Summary
These three aren’t flying under the radar, but they’re reliable, progressive and match up well with the Top 4 market:
- Underwriter: exciting prospect with a polished debut.
- Sons And Lovers: consistently mixing it in quality company.
- My Mate Mozzie: proven in the race, well treated, and bang in form.
If you're hunting for returns without needing a win, Top 4 with Bet365 looks like a smart play on all three, which pays out at just over 28/1.
