Jack Milner presents the latest edition of the Freebets.com Horse Racing podcast, focusing on all the winners, and indeed losers, from last month at Royal Ascot. Joined by a select panel of form judges Alan Kelly, Charlie McCann and Ed Quigley, the team assess the chances of Day 1 winners Palace Pier and Poetic Flare, both successful at G1 level on the opening day in the Queen Anne Stakes and St James’s Palace Stakes respectively, eventually meeting in a clash of the generations and look set for a collision course in The Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood. Aidan O’Brien has an abundance of talent in the 3yo fillies division but is back to the drawing board after the disappointments of High Definition and Bolshoi Ballet, how will the Ballydoyle maestro shuffle his pack heading into The Coral-Eclipse, The King George, Glorious Goodwood and The Juddmonte International? His sole 3yo colt to score at G1 level is St Mark’s Basilica, completing France’s Guineas and Derby double last month at Chantilly and his sole representative on Saturday at Sandown. The panel look at the chances of Love, a winner on her belated return in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot, as she sets to take on the classic generation in a hotly anticipated clash with Derby winner Adayar in The King George later this month at Ascot. Flat racing put to one side, the panel give their thoughts on the proposed move to extend Cheltenham to five days, whilst also giving their best bets for the summer’s sporting calendar. Unsurprisingly, Ed and Jack are focusing on The Open Championship at Royal St George’s!
Episode 8 of the Freebets.com Horse Racing Podcasts sees Peter Scudamore join Alan Kelly, Ed Quigley and Jack Milner to reflect on Epsom’s two-day classic meeting where Godolphin’s Adayar ran out a shock winner of the Cazoo Derby under Adam Kirby.

Snowfall was a sixteen-length winner of The Oaks on Friday and the guys reflect on the real ability of the winner, and the field in behind.

The team look at the other big winners from the weekend including Coronation Cup winner Pyledriver and Prix du Jockey Club winner St Mark’s Basilica – could they be set for a collision course in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe later this autumn?
