Shergar Cup

Not everyone's cup of tea but the renewal is staged at Ascot tomorrow. The races, as you'd expect, are incredibly competitive. In the one race where there was a warm favourite - the stayers - we have an early non-runner: Western Prize which will be a blow to Take and the International team as this one could have gone off around 5/2.

Ireland has won the team prize for the last three years but this year Ireland and GB are amalgamated as one team represented by Murtagh, Fallon and Doyle. Looking at their rides and indeed their experience I don't understand why some bookmakers do not make them favourites for the team prize. I have therefore stepped in:

Shergar Cup team : 6pts win GB and Ireland @ 11/4 Coral (also available 888 and Blue Square)

It would not surprise me if the RP went for GB/Ireland so it may prove best to take the price now rather than wait until tomorrow.
