His fourth-place finish in the Chester Vase worked out well, with the one-two then filling the same positions in the Derby, and the third nearly winning the German Derby. The fifth-placed runner was second in the Queen's Vase over 1m 6f at Royal Ascot. Pinhole managed only eighth in the Queen's Vase, but it's notable he went off as 4/1 joint-favourite. The drop back in trip is no bad thing and he should be too good for his five exposed rivals in this lesser contest today. Cheekpieces are added. 7.48 York – Lyric Fillies' Stakes (Listed, 1m 2f; Racing TV) Another Beckett-trained runner, REVOIR has good-looking claims, dropping in grade and trip after her sixth-placed finish in the Oaks over 1m 4f at Epsom. While that Group 1 test proved too much for her, the race has been working out and she had previously finished a good, close second in a 1m 2f Listed race at Newbury, with that form being boosted when the winner, who also struggled at Epsom, landed a Group 2 race in France. Sand Gazelle, just behind Revoir in the Newbury race, might be the main danger. When is the next big racing festival? The week-long Galway Festival kicks off in Ireland on Monday (July 28), followed a day later by Glorious Goodwood. Check out the latest Glorious Goodwood free bets and betting offers. The latter is a five-day fixture and is set to feature the Kingman colt Field Of Gold, possibly the best horse in the world, in the Sussex Stakes on July 30, one of three Group 1 contests at the meeting. Does William Buick have any rides today? Buick has four rides at Ascot on the eve of the King George meeting. Where is Ryan Moore riding on Friday? The Ballydoyle No 1 sits out the Friday action but is back for Ascot on Saturday when he's set to partner Jan Brueghel in the Group 1 King George. What does NAP mean? NAP is a word used in betting circles to describe a prediction that a tipster thinks has a particularly strong chance of winning. Many horse racing tipsters pick out a 'NAP of the day', which is their favoured selection from all the races across the different meetings. The term NAP derives from the French card game Napoleon. When players of this game thought they had a particularly strong hand that they would win with, they would shout 'Napoleon'.
