ANCIENT WISDOM appeared to be crying out for a step up in trip when no match to the impressive Economics in the Dante. The Dubawi colt received just that when sent to the Derby at Epsom last month, but, having perhaps failed to handle the track, that effort can be forgiven. The clear pick on official ratings, he can resume his progress upped further in distance and eased in class. Space Legend (second) and Royal Supremacy (third) clashed in the King Edward VII at Royal Ascot last time and are the most likely dangers.

SPACE LEGEND has improved a chunk with each of his four runs to date so William Haggas' King Edward VII runner-up is taken to resume winning ways. Royal Supremacy came home a place behind the selection that day and rates the chief threat, although Ancient Wisdom is another with the form to have a say if back to his juvenile best in an intriguing Bahrain Trophy.

Preference is for the up-and-coming SPACE LEGEND, who was runner-up in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Better was expected of WHISTLEJACKET in the Norfolk three weeks ago, but he was by no means disgraced in fourth. The son of No Nay Never hit the line strongly that day and ought to prove more effective at this longer trip, so it would come as no surprise were he to provide Aidan O'Brien a first winner in this contest since Royal Lytham back in 2019. Ain't Nobody maintained his unbeaten record when swooping late to land the Windsor Castle last time, though it is Coventry runner-up Electrolyte that may be the main threat.

The smallest field since 2010 for the July Stakes and as usual, various form strands from Royal Ascot are represented against those that have won novices. The vote goes to WHISTLEJACKET, who failed to meet expectations when fourth in the Norfolk but this step back up to 6f looks the way to go. Ain't Nobody made it 2-2 in the Windsor Castle last month so he's most feared, ahead of Electrolyte, who went down by a flared nostril in the Coventry and is open to further progress.

The form of three 2yo races at Ascot is represented. Norfolk fourth WHISTLEJACKET will be happier back over 6f on softer ground.

WOODHAY WONDER boasts an excellent record on both tracks here, with her only defeat coming when third in the Duchess Of Cambridge at this meeting last year, and a recent fourth in the Palace Of Holyrood House at Royal Ascot proved there might still be a bit of leeway from her current mark of 99. Zabriskie Point was last seen competing in the Tattersalls Stakes on the Rowley Mile in September and it would come as no surprise were he to improve back handicapping, while Tropical Island and Dorney Lake are others to note.

TROPICAL ISLAND was a big eyecatcher on her York reappearance, travelling like one ahead of her mark before an 8-month absence seemed to tell late on. Woodhay Wonder's excellent Newmarket record, which includes a valuable success over C&D at the end of last summer, also earns her a place on the shortlist, ahead of Imperial Guard

A competitive sprint which could be heading north with SERGEANT WILKO (nap) preferred to \pTropical Island\p and Dark Vintage.

Having posted an excellent second in the Group 1 Coronation Cup at Epsom in May, HAMISH rates as the one to beat on this ease in class. William Haggas' veteran had previously racked up a five-timer and is taken to regain the winning thread at the main expense of the penalised Giavellotto. The son of Mastercraftsman arrives on the back of a comfortable victory in the Group 2 Yorkshire Cup and certainly won't be found lacking for stamina come the finish. Arrest makes most appeal of the remainder with conditions more in his favour.

HAMISH's winning run came to an end in the Coronation Cup at Epsom 6 weeks ago but he lost nothing in defeat that day and can resume winning ways back down in class. Arrest stepped up on his comeback run when runner-up in the Ormonde Stakes at Chester and last year's St Leger runner-up is feared most.

Eight-time Group 3 winner HAMISH was an excellent second in the Group 1 Coronation Cup at Epsom last time and can go one better today.

There was plenty of encouragement to be gleaned from MISS FASCINATOR's debut second over C&D last month. That experience should stand the Roger Varian-trained filly in good stead going forwards and a breakthrough victory may be imminent. Although she proved underwhelming in the Listed Marygate Fillies' Stakes at York in May, it's too early to write Magic Mild off. The daughter of Havana Grey is a potential improver upped in distance and she may give the selection most to think about, ahead of well-bred newcomer Adoon Valley.

MISS FASCINATOR sets the standard on her C&D second 13 days ago and, if the race doesn't come too soon, she should be able to go one better. Valentia Island is one of several rivals open to improvement and Adoon Valley is a notable debutante for a shrewd outfit.

Godolphin filly VALENTIA ISLAND raced away from the main action when fifth over C&D on her recent debut and earns the vote.

LEAD ARTIST was unlucky not to score on his debut in the Wood Ditton after being slowly away and flying home late to only be denied by a nose. The son of Dubawi proved to be a class act at York in May and appears to have plenty more scope for improvement, so the rise in grade is unlikely to be an inconvenience. Kitty Rose wasn't disgraced when fifth in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot last time and she has to be considered, while Socialite is another to take seriously.

The recent rain will play to the strengths of KITTY ROSE, who posted a personal best when runner-up in a Group 3 at Leopardstown in April and made a solid start for her new yard at Royal Ascot last month. Lead Artist looked potentially smart when scoring at York in May and is feared most, whilst Native American is another who will be suited by plenty of give underfoot.

Juddmonte's LEAD ARTIST impressed in a novice at the York Dante meeting and can take the step up in class in his stride.

TWIRLING was well beaten in the Kensington Palace at Royal Ascot last month, but prior to that she took a class 4 event at Doncaster. The daughter of Churchill is only 5lb higher compared to that triumph and Ryan Moore retains the ride from last time, so she shades the vote. Sterling Knight finished down the field in the Buckingham Palace at the Royal meeting last time, but he is better judged on his victory at Newbury the time before and he should go well. Of the rest, The Ice Phoenix makes the most appeal.

FIFTY NIFTY looked good when making a winning debut at Yarmouth in April and it was a competitive Doncaster novice in which he finished a very respectable fifth next time. Armed with potential now venturing down the handicap route, this unexposed 3-y-o makes plenty of appeal. Twirling and Sterling Knight were both down the field in Royal Ascot handicaps but better can be expected here, while Alzahir and Urban Sprawl are others to consider.

The 5yo STERLING KNIGHT is unraced over 1m but got up late over 7f at Newbury two starts ago and could prove well suited by the trip.

Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses.
