Royal Ascot Awash in Field of Gold

Grey sensation hogs Day 1 of iconic British racing event with St James's Palace rampage
-
ASCOT - Field Of Gold put to bed who is the best three-year-old colt over a mile as the Irish 2000 Guineas winner eased to victory in the £650,000 (S$1.13 million) Group 1 St James's Palace Stakes (1,600m) on the opening day of the five-day Royal Ascot on June 17.
Irish jockey Colin Keane made light of the pressure of being recently appointed first jockey for the Saudi owners Juddmonte as he surged clear halfway down the straight on the $8 favourite in front of packed stands on a baking hot day.
Keane's predecessor Kieran Shoemark had lost the job after what was judged, by the father-and-son training duo John and Thady Gosden, to be a poor ride in finishing second behind Ruling Court in the Group 1 English 2000 Guineas (1,600m) at Newmarket on May 3.
