Our racing team review day one of Royal Ascot


Cornelius Lysaght and Oli Bell join David Ord and Michael Shinners to review the action on the opening day of Royal Ascot.

They talk through the drama on the track as Battaash blitzed his rivals in the Kings Stand, part of a treble for jockey Jim Crowley and owner Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum.

Check out their verdicts on the Ribblesdale and King Edward VII and the Classic claims of Frankly Darling and Pyledriver too.
