So cool that Nyquist gets a Royal Ascot winner!

Happy for George Weaver and Velasquez. I know the former is going through a lot right now.

Who won? I had the stream up on my computer but got a call from my dad's attorney (still dealing with stuff from his passing in March) and I missed the race.

Thanks.

I saw the results, they just weren't up when I posted. Mostahdaf, Luxembourg, Adayar, My Prospero, Bay Bridge, Classic Causeway(who justified my skepticism of him being entered in this race).

Mostahdaf‘s win flatters Equinox.

Poor Classic Causeway—in way over his head. But I think he contributed to Luxembourg’s loss by pushing the pace.

Chuffed for Crimson Advocate, but my favorite winner of the day was Mostahdaf. Not only was he smashing, but I remember him from the Saudi race. I was watching the television was quite struck by the nearly-black son of Frankel.

Valiant Force (Malibu Moon) is a 150-1 winner of the Norfolk :shock: Lady Aurelia's son American Rascal never did much.

A Maiden wins the Norfolk Stakes American Rascal, No Nay Mets and Elite Status were Disappointing

Thought His Majesty was a shade unlucky but wouldnt have beaten the winner

Well done to Amo Racing

I’m afraid that the English and Irish may have finally caught on to Wesley Ward’s methods. I guess this is the main product of all those sound but speedy two year olds that theyve been retiring to stud for the last 5-7 years.
