Royal Ascot 2019: tips from Racing Post experts for day three
Handicappers' nap
Sir Ron Priestley (5.35 Ascot)
This unexposed colt has impressed in winning both starts this year, still looks favourably treated and can add to trainer Mark Johnston's good record in this race.
Paul Curtis
Newmarket nap
Sinjaari (5.35 Ascot)
Was unlucky not to win at Newbury last time but will like the ground and is fancied to overcome a wide draw.
David Milnes
Eyecatcher
Roseman (3.05 Ascot)
Chased home King Of Comedy at Sandown last time and deserves plenty of credit as he duelled up front but kept to his task all the way to the finish. That experience will have sharpened him up and he looks well worth his place in this field.
Raceform
Irish angle
Fleeting (3.40 Royal Ascot)
A strong-finishing third in the Oaks and unlucky not to have run the first two closer. The daughter of Zoffany can justify the decision to supplement her for this contest.
Tony O'Hehir
Speed figures
Questionare (5.35 Ascot)
Has twice been beaten narrowly since making a winning debut in March and deserves to get back in the winning groove.
Dave Edwards
Spotlight nap
Sinjaari (5.35 Ascot)
Has finished in taking style on all four starts and only just failed to get to Hampton Court fancy Headman in a hot handicap at Newbury last time. From a sprinting family but he is by Camelot and looks ready for 1m4f.
Richard Austen
Must-have stat of the day
Nine of the last ten winners of the Britannia were officially rated 87-96, six of the last seven had run no more than five times, seven of the last ten had already won a handicap and seven of the last nine finished in the first two when last seen. Migration is the only qualifier on all counts at 5.00.
