William looks forward to Royal Ascot

UNFORTUNATELY there will be no representatives from Phantom House running at Royal Ascot this week but William is very much looking forward to watching the week unfold.

He said: “I am very much looking forward to the best five days of racing in the calendar. I am lucky enough to be going with Tony Verrier on Tuesday and with Kevin and Joanna Hickman on Wednesday.

“As ever my tips are well worth following and my banker of the week would by Manifest in the Gold Cup.

“I was fortunate to work for Henry Cecil during the time of his two great stayers Le Moss and Ardross and he is a wonderful trainer of staying horses.”

On the runners front at Phantom House William is hoping that Loki’s Revenge can get off the mark over 5f at Warwick on Thursday.

The son of Kyllachy was an encouraging third on his debut at Leicester and he should be mentally and physically sharper for that outing.

On Friday Kay Gee Bee will be in action at Newmarket while Kerchak is an intended runner in a 1m1f handicap at Goodwood.

Al Jaadl is likely to be in action over the weekend at either Newmarket or Pontefract.
