Ireland's best three chances of a winner at Royal Ascot on Wednesday

Royal Ascot on Wednesday looks to be another great day of racing, featuring the heavyweight clash in the Prince Of Wales's at 16:40 with Daryz, Ombudsman and Minnie Hauk going to battle in what looks a thrilling contest.

Queen's Vase, 2.20

In the 14:20, I like the chances of Asakir in the Queen's Vase. He was a good third on debut and he improved when a good winner of a Leopardstown maiden before finishing second in the Yeats Listed Stakes, and he reopposes Limestone.

I feel he has a huge chance. In the famous Aga Khan silks, I feel Ben Coen can make use of a not ideal inside draw and have the horse in a good position, and a positive position will be vital.

Duke of Cambridge Stakes, 3.40

In the 15:40, Catalina Delcarpio is an extremely classy horse and I feel she's quite overpriced as she has a turn of foot and stamina, which will be extremely important in this contest.

She was sent off 2/1 favourite for the Ribblesdale Stakes and she ran a great race to finish third last year and the drop back in trip will suit. She has a massive chance and at odds of 8/1, she'll have can hopefully add to the Irish scoreboard.

Windsor Castle Stakes, 6.10

In the final race, we see the Listed Windsor Castle Stakes and the Aidan O'Brien-trained Sergei Diaghilev looks like he could be the next superstar to come out of Ballydoyle.

He is a brother to Endorsement, who is a high-class three-year-old over a mile and a half, but the son of Wootton Bassett showed signs of speed on his debut in the Curragh and the Royal Ascot straight will be sure to suit, as this horse will need further in time.

A couple to also mention in the race for the Aga Khan stables would be the Michael O'Callaghan-trained Celeron who was an impressive winner in the Curragh, and he has the former Irish champion jockey Colin Keane on his back and he looks sure to take his chance, while Robson Aguiar will be hopeful his Night Of Thunder filly Controlla owned by Amo Racing, will be able to back up an extremely promising debut at Naas Racecourse and she looks to have plenty of speed.

The Irish supporters will be hopeful after a bright start to Ascot that the success for our trainers, jockeys and owners will continue.
