Oisin Murphy, Danny Tudhope and Jason Weaver look back on Royal Ascot
Chris Hayes and William Hill's Jamie McBride also join the panel
What was your pick of the two-year-old performances at Royal Ascot?
Chris Hayes, jockey Arizona in the Coventry and Pinatubo in the Chesham both impressed me. Arizona was still quite raw and looked as if a step up in trip would suit him well whereas Pinatubo looked very smart and put his race to bed very quickly.
Jamie McBride, William Hill It’s rather obvious, but it's hard to get away from Pinatubo. The visual impression was backed up by a slick time and plenty of others in behind him ran with promise, including Heaven Forfend and Year Of The Tiger.
Oisin Murphy, jockey I thought Roger Varian’s filly Daahyeh was very good in the Albany on Friday. She's a daughter of Bated Breath, won her maiden very impressively at Newmarket first time out and I'm delighted for David Egan. He's a young jockey going places and it was fantastic to see him ride a big winner.
