- Crimson Advocate and John Velazquez claimed the narrowest of victories in a thrilling climax to the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot.
A field of 26 juvenile fillies went to post for the five-furlong opener on day two and the George Weaver-trained Crimson Advocate made a rapid start in the hands of his Hall of Fame pilot.
The 9-1 shot, a winner at Gulfstream Park in Florida last month, led her rivals a merry dance for much of the way and it was just a question of whether she would hold on racing inside the final furlong.
Relief Rally, unbeaten in two previous starts for William Haggas, came at the leader hard as the post loomed and was in front just before and just after the line - but the judge confirmed Crimson Advocate was a nose in front where it mattered. Beautiful Diamond, the 11-4 favourite, finished third.
Kentucky-born Weaver had saddled just one previous runner at the Royal meeting, with the Velazquez-ridden Cyclogenisis finishing down the field in the 2015 Commonwealth Cup.

What a tight finish i backed the first two so was pleased the americans got a winner good for racing and its so hard for the aussies and americans to win at royal ascot.
It’s not hard we just don’t send our best horse’s.
@@notnek202 your best horses run on dirt so even your best turf horses would struggle as proved by European turf horses cleaning up in the breeders cup.
Yayyy! USA. Congratulations!
Had him done!!!!
Did william Buick win anything? he's my man,
Has Martin Lewis commented ( hes blocked me ) the Aussie and Us horses were useless this year and would have no winners according to him. Oh the joy of seeing Frankie ride them to sleep on Gregory . Lewis wont like that or his bet on Luxembourg,
His exact words were “throw enough darts and some of them are bound to land”
JV the best
Someone needs to tell this announcer how to pronounce John Velasquez's last name. The Q is pronounced as a K.
Who cares?.
Hardly a matter of importance is it? I’m sure the American dog track commentators will pronounce it properly for you if it bothers you
No, it’s “ cuez “
@@beagleman123456789 Learn your Spanish.
@@patriciaguth6882 I’m an expert’
Does he win at the Breeders nope
Throw enough darts, one has to land 😂😂😂😂
We dont send ALOT of horses over there so actually it's always a huge feat number of runners ratio wise
You guys send ALOT more horses to the states and dont really dominate on grass like you should
@@lagosfury5142as an irish man i can say without we lead the world jumps flat breeding... we rule all diciplines 🇮🇪
@@annmarie2751 nope
@@annmarie2751 Total crap on that!!! US rules dirt racing and most of your good horses have some American parentage. Remember Giant's Causeway? Born and bred in the US with Secretariat in his blood. But Tiznow whipped him in the 2000 BC Classic!!!
@@lagosfury5142 And the US isn't big into turf racing anyway, so nobody cares who wins those BC races. We wait for the dirt races, and no foreigners even challenge us anymore in the BC Classic because they know they've got no chance. Tiznow whipped Giant's Causeway in 2000 and Galileo in 2001, so they stopped coming!!!
Brits and Irish horses are still better though, I bet that was a fluke.
Only and grass Japan and America kill u guys on dirt around the clock
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
John Velazquez Is Great
Angel Cordero Jr Is Still The Greatest Race Rider/ Jockey Of All Time After Eddie Arcaro.
Congratulations To John Velazquez
Smoked you Brits USA USA USA 🇺🇸
Says the country with a woke president and a healthcare monopoly 🏴 🏴 🏴
says forest gump
@@barrypeers8665 Forrest, even your education system is certainly ‘better’ and more patriotic than ours, we actually learn geography, how’s your map of the world then?
These dummy Brits don't realize that turf racing ISN'T big in the US -- that our money goes into our dirt horses instead, so when they beat us, they're usually not beating much! The Brits have crap dirt horses.
Good luck in paying your health bills yank, you always need it.
