13th 16 (5) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Has failed to build on an eye-catching reappearance effort but seemed to be outstayed over 1m2f most recently; unlucky second in the C&D Britannia at this meeting last year (good to firm; might well have won but for traffic issues) and looks very interesting back here, bidding for compensation. |
9/1 |

5th 15 (7) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Two starts at Royal Ascot have yielded a win in the 2023 Chesham (7f) and cracking second of 23 in the Kensington Palace (1m, also good to firm) last year; won four-runner Leopardstown Group 3 (1m1f, good) the following month and there was plenty of encouragement when third in 7f Group 3 back there on last month's return; no surprise if she raises her game once more back at her favourite fixture. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Acts on any ground; admirable campaigner whose Listed success at Doncaster in March is flanked by respectable efforts in Group 1 events at Sha Tin; his excellent record over this C&D reads 11322214 and features two wins at Royal Ascot, including narrowly in this contest last term despite rider dropping whip over 1f out (played second fiddle to Charyn, the year's champion miler, in the 2024 edition); solid claims returned to this scenario. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Versatile as regards ground; landed the Britannia here in 2023 and good second in this contest in 2024; beaten only half a length in Listed grade on reappearance, taking Ascot form figures to 113222; close third in Epsom Group 3 since, meeting traffic issues then finishing well; returns to his ideal location, albeit bringing a lower rating than most of these rivals. |
16/1 |
