Jumps powerhouse Henry de Bromhead reveals his Royal Ascot team including well-regarded Ribblesdale hope
Henry de Bromhead has conquered all the feature races at the Cheltenham Festival as well as the Grand National and he has now set his sights on a first Royal Ascot winner with three chances next week, including the unexposed Hollys Graces in the Ribblesdale Stakes.
