In A Name: Royal Ascot 2020 Edition

I didn't bet on Royal Ascot yesterday, but I did look at the results. When doing so, a winner stood out to me and I thought to myself 'damn, I would have backed that one!'

The horse ran in the King Edward VII stakes. It was an 18/1 winner. Most importantly, the name was...

Pyledriver.

Okay, it isn't 'Piledriver', but - as a wrestling fan - that is something I would have gone for. I am sure the name would have stuck out.

Seeing as I am on a wrestling theme for Royal Ascot, I've taken a look at today's card to see if any names stand out.

Here's what I've gone for.

1:50 Hampton Court Stakes - King Carney
3:25 Royal Hunt Cup - Pogo 
4:40 Copper Horse Handicap - Amazing Red

Both are 33/1, so I am not holding out too much hope on these horses winning!
