Best-backed selection
17:00 Royal Ascot – Ostilio 12/1 from 20/1
Plenty of movement in the Royal Ascot markets through the morning and perhaps one of the most intriguing is Vazirabad (5/1 from 11/2) in the Gold Cup. The tricky but hugely talented stayer has already enjoyed a fine year, winning Group Twos at Meydan and Longchamp, and he will be looking to upset the big two in the betting Order Of St George and Stradivarius - who are both Sky Bet Price Boosts in the feature race.
National Stakes winner Vintage Brut is 9/2 from 6/1 in the opening Norfolk Stakes - where it's Money Back as a free bet if your selection is second or third.
Ostilio is the best-backed horse on the day in the Britannia Stakes as he looks to extend Simon Crisford's fantastic record when teaming up with Silvestre De Sousa, while Downdraft and Communique are both proving popular in the concluding King George V Stakes.

Trader Tip
6.50 Lingfield – Monumental Man
Michael Attwater’s nine-year old hasn’t tasted success for a while but looks of interest back at Lingfield this evening. The majority of his career wins have come on the all-weather surface at the track (5 from 12) and with an excellent draw in stall one he can add to his record this evening.
