Waiting Patiently can cause upset in Ascot’s Clarence House plus best bets for ITV racing coverage

WE have a serious weekend of racing in store!

The big guns have stood their ground and Saturday’s Clarence House Chase is a sizzler.

Add into the mix the return of Buveur D’Air at Haydock – weather permitting, of course – and you simply can’t miss it.

But it’s Ascot’s Grade 1 that will have most tongues wagging.

And I’ll have my money on Ruth Jefferson’s Waiting Patiently to turn over the red-hot favourite Politologue.

Jefferson’s star goes brilliantly at Ascot and he’s clearly back to his best judged on his superb King George second.

He’s primed to take all the beating in this one.
