Royal Ascot Tuesday Tips – Dan James Racing
Royal Ascot’s iconic opening salvo features three Group 1 races packed with top-tier milers. The Queen Anne Stakes, St James’s Palace Stakes, and King Charles III Stakes line up a stellar cast, promising head-to-head showdowns and tactical dramas.
With the ground expected to stay good to firm and the Royal Procession marking its 200th anniversary, it’s set to be a day to remember.
Undefeated in his last three starts, including a commanding win in the Irish 2,000 Guineas, which really showcased raw power and a breathtaking turn of foot. Colin Keane’s partnership is unbelievable, and this horse recovered smartly after a tactical misstep at Newmarket to return to top form at the Curragh. He’s the standout in a trio of Guineas winners and all signs point to him dominating this.
Winner of the St James’s Palace last year and runner-up in the Lockinge this season, Rosallion combines experience with class. Richard Hannon’s four-year-old has a strong public following—odds shortened from 9/2 to 5/2–11/4, showing confidence in how he comes into this race. A proven Class 1 winner over the mile, Rosallion is every bit the calibre of a Royal Ascot winner.
Last year's Haydock Sprint Cup winner, he showed blistering early speed and tenacity to beat a strong field over 6f, but he’s equally effective over the minimum trip and has proven himself versatile in terms of ground and pace setups. A live outside chance.
