Richard Hannon already has 10 winners at Royal Ascot on his CV which is more than most will ever achieve, but judging by his team for this year\u2019s meeting he looks well equipped to add to that tally. <\/p>\n
Last year saw the Classic winning handler walk away with two victories from the meeting after Rosallion backed up his Irish 2000 Guineas success in the St James\u2019s Palace Stakes, while Haatem tasted Group Three glory in the Jersey Stakes. <\/p>\n
Both horses feature prominently among Hannon\u2019s team once more, however they are not the only ones given Hannon cause for optimism with some exciting two-year-olds and potentially smart handicappers expected to make their presence felt across the five days. <\/p>\n
Hannon said: \u201cWe had two very nice winners at the meeting last year and two winners would do me any year. I\u2019d love to think we could have two winners. <\/p>\n
\u201cI think we have better chances in the handicaps this year, as much chance in the two year old races and a good chance in the Queen Anne. <\/p>\n
\u201cRosallion is the big hope for the week, but if he doesn\u2019t win we have to pick ourselves and get on with it as we have a lot of other good horses running during the week.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Richard Hannon already has 10 winners at Royal Ascot on his CV which is more than most will…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7320,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4107],"tags":[1071,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-186052","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-racing","8":"tag-racing","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114686770731260038","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/186052","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=186052"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/186052\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=186052"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=186052"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=186052"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
