Half-brother to six winners including Sakhee's Return (5.8f-7f including 2yo; RPR 93), Jackpot Royale (7f-1m; 91), Be Royale (6f-8.6f including AW; 79), Queens Royale (7f AW; 75) and Must Be Royale (7f AW; 70); once-raced dam (56) out of 1m Group 3 winner; family has won plenty of races for the yard, but stable only has the occasional winning newcomer; watch market. |

9st 9lb |
All four wins, including three at Wolverhampton, have come at around 1m2f; this trip looks right on the limit of his stamina, but he drops to this level for the first time so is well worth a second look. |

Flat winner is 0-5 over hurdles and was well beaten in sole previous handicap off 3lb higher at Limerick on penultimate; best form has come on heavy ground; others preferred. |

15th Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 0f 53y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins this year (two on soft), the latest when edging out Astronomica at Nottingham in June; now needs to bounce back from quieter runs, latterly in the Bath race dominated by two of today's rivals. |

1st Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Three wins this year including two over C&D (soft) in the spring; fast ground was against her at Doncaster last time and has been off for 68 days since, but she has won fresh; still on a career-high mark, but the return to a soft surface would be a plus. |

25th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Kicked off campaign with two wins at Bath (1m, soft) before a good second there (1m, good), and she returned to winning ways at Nottingham (1m, good to soft); it's unlikely she's going to be on slow ground today, which dents confidence somewhat, but this thriving mare is still respected. |

12th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win from 23 starts came on turf at Salisbury off 11lb higher last August; runner-up at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW; first-time blinkers) in March but he was disappointing over 1m2f here next time and was pulled up at Bath (1m, firm; reported to have moved poorly) when favourite 38 days ago; needs to bounce back. |

Terries Royale, Sycamore, My Honey B
Verdict
William Knight’s 3yo ATLANTIC GAMBLE is on a roll and it was easily his best performance yet at Kempton last week. Andromedas Kingdom is another on top of her game who could well cope with her new mark and provide the biggest threat. The latter’s stablemate Terries Royale should also feature, yet the prospect of deteriorating ground reduces the appeal of My Honey B and Sycamore.[Alistair Jones]
