1	13 1st (13) (6/1 +57%) Running Lion		6 6/1(+57%)																															(13) Running Lion 6/1, Useful last season and she looked all over the winner before hanging left over 1f out when runner-up on return in Dahlia Stakes (9f) at Newmarket in May. Subsequent effort in Princess Elizabeth Stakes has to go down as disappointing and she needs treating with a degree of caution now. Enters the reckoning on her best form but was disappointing last time; risks attached.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 -14%) Laurel		4 4/1(-14%)																															(6) Laurel 4/1, Well-regarded filly who ran a fine race when second at Group 1 level on final start at 3 yrs. Seen only twice last season, successful on return at listed level prior to a lesser run in the Lockinge at Newbury (1m) 13 months ago. Interesting she remains in training as a 5-y-o and she's shortlisted. Back from 396 days off but she's still lightly raced and is a big player on her best form.
3	3 3rd (3) (14/1 +22%) Doom		14 14/1(+22%)																															(3) Doom 14/1, Consistent filly who progressed gradually towards the end of last season, signing off with success in French listed event (7f, soft) in November. Solid return to action when ¾-length third of 10 to Gregarina in Athasi Stakes at the Curragh (7f) and possible she can improve further this term. Still has potential but best form has been at 7f and she has quite a bit to find here.
4	7 4th (7) (80/1 -100%) Magical Sunset		80 80/1(-100%)																															(7) Magical Sunset 80/1, Useful filly. Career best when landing Group 3 Oak Tree Stakes at Goodwood (7f, heavy) last summer for Richard Hannon prior to a couple of low-key efforts in the autumn. Not at very best in trio of starts for new yard so far this term and work to do if she's to feature at this level. Won Group 3 at Goodwood last summer but she's been disappointing since; others preferred.
5th	11 5th (11) (66/1 -1786%) Rogue Millennium		66 66/1(-1786%)																															(11) Rogue Millennium 66/1, Smart mare who confirmed previous promise when landing this race 12 months ago. Acquired by present connections for £1,650,000 after final start and she shaped better than the result when third behind Ocean Jewel on return at the Curragh (1m) in May. Has to be of strong interest again. Won this last year and she didn't get much luck on stable debut last month; key player.
6th	5 6th (5) (66/1 +0%) Julia Augusta		66 66/1(+0%)																															(5) Julia Augusta 66/1, Useful mare who ran creditably upped in grade/on debut for new yard when 2 lengths fourth of 8 to Breege in Group 3 Princess Elizabeth Stakes at Epsom (8.5f, good to soft) 18 days ago. However, she's likely to find a few too good again in this even deeper contest. Behind two of today's rivals in Group 3 at Epsom and this looks a tough task.
7th	2 7th (2) (350/1 -2088%) Breege		350 350/1(-2088%)																															(2) Breege 350/1, Posted some excellent efforts in defeat last season, notably her second in the Sandringham at this meeting. Good third on return at Goodwood and deservedly back to winning ways in Grp. 3 Princess Elizabeth Stakes at Epsom 18 days ago. Looks a player again in first-time cheekpieces. Group 3 win at Epsom last time; has more to do here but she's in the mix; headgear on.
8th	12 8th (12) (350/1 -2817%) Royal Dress		350 350/1(-2817%)																															(12) Royal Dress 350/1, Useful handicapper for Richard Hannon last season and caused a surprise when edging out Breege on return in Goodwood listed contest in May. Matched that level when third behind that rival at Epsom latest (not seen to best effect) and she's evidently an improved performer this term. Big improvement in hood for new yard; now steps up to a Group 2 but she could be dangerous.
9th	10 9th (10) (350/1 -1844%) Orchid Bloom		350 350/1(-1844%)																															(10) Orchid Bloom 350/1, Progressed into a useful performer last term, successful on handicap debut at Newbury (1m) before finishing placed in pair of listed events. Ran well on her first try in pattern company when fourth behind Ocean Jewel at the Curragh 24 days ago. Stronger pace here will aid her cause. Has some work to do on these terms and fast ground is an unknown factor; tongue-tie on.
10th	9 10th (9) (300/1 -1775%) Novus		300 300/1(-1775%)																															(9) Novus 300/1, Smart filly who progressed throughout last term, winning 3 times either side of a very good sixth in Sandringham (1m) at this meeting 12 months ago. Enhanced her excellent Goodwood record when edged out late on at listed level in May and she's an each-way player back up in class. Went close in Listed race last month but this demands more and all wins have been on soft.
11th	1 11th (1) (350/1 -4275%) Ocean Jewel		350 350/1(-4275%)																															(1) Ocean Jewel 350/1, Sioux Nation filly who won Group 3 Ballycorus Stakes 12 months ago and, lightly raced since, she returned with a career-best performance when taking 8-runner Group 2 at the Curragh (1m) 24 days ago. Still low mileage and she could have more to offer at this sort of trip. Won Group 2 at Curragh and had two of today's rivals behind her; respected under penalty.
12th	8 12th (8) (450/1 -350%) Nibras Angel		450 450/1(-350%)																															(8) Nibras Angel 450/1, Won 2 of her 4 starts as a 3-y-o and progressed further without getting her head in front in Meydan around the turn of the year. Latest sixth of 11 in handicap at Newbury (7f) was a creditable effort but she's got plenty to find up at this level. Losing run is up to nine and she's bottom of the pack on ratings.
13th	14 13th (14) (350/1 -2088%) Sea The Lady		350 350/1(-2088%)																															(14) Sea The Lady 350/1, Useful performer who won 3 times as a juvenile. Improved without tasting success in pattern company during 2023 and she proved as good as ever on return/debut for new yard when third in Longchamp Group 3 (10f) in April. Forecast quicker conditions will hold no fears here. French filly who has something to find and her tactical speed will be tested back at 1m.
14th	4 14th (4) (14/1 +13%) Gregarina		14 14/1(+13%)																															(4) Gregarina 14/1, €210,000 purchase having showed useful form in France and she made perfect start for new yard when taking Group 3 Athasi Stakes at the Curragh (7f, soft) in May, staying on to lead dying strides. Return to this longer trip a plus and she's not discounted. Last-gasp win in Group 3 on stable debut and she's not ruled out back up in trip.

LTO Selection:

15:45 Royal Ascot Group 2 (Class 1) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Laurel has her first start since disappointing in last year's Lockinge. She won a Listed contest at Kempton under Ryan Moore before that, but has something to prove on her reappearance and OCEAN JEWEL is preferred. The latter looked an improved filly when winning a Group 2 contest at the Curragh last month with plenty left in the tank, and further improvement looks on the cards. Rogue Millennium won this last year and has joined Joseph O'Brien subsequently. She was no match for the selection when sent off favourite at the Curragh, though she may finish closer on this occasion. Breege accounted for Royal Dress and Running Lion when landing a Group 3 at Epsom, but would prefer some cut in the ground, while William Buick picks up the ride on the Irish filly and Group 3 winner Gregarina and she could go well.

Low-mileage mare LAUREL has been absent since finishing down the field in the Lockinge 13 months ago but she'd looked one to keep firmly on side in landing 3 of her 4 previous starts. All the more significant her leading connections opt to keep her in training as a 5-y-o, she's selected to enhance her good record fresh and strike. Last year's winner Rogue Millennium had little go right on return/yard debut and is feared. Ocean Jewel and Breege are others to consider.

Preference is for last year's winner ROGUE MILLENNIUM, who didn't get much luck behind Ocean Jewel on her return last month.

1	2 1st (2) (13/8 +7%) Auguste Rodin		1.625 13/8(+7%)																															(2) Auguste Rodin 13/8, Flopped in 2000 Guineas and King George but won all other outings at 3, namely Derby at Epsom, Irish Derby, Irish Champion and Breeders' Cup Turf. Flopped again on Meydan reappearance but took a big step back in the right direction when second in Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh. Leading player. Has an impressive array of top-flight wins, but punctuated by some absolute shockers.
2	8 2nd (8) (40/1 -100%) Zarakem		40 40/1(-100%)																															(8) Zarakem 40/1, Rose through the ranks with a 5-timer last season and produced a career best to make a winning reappearance in the Prix d'Harcourt at Longchamp (10.4f) in April. However, ran below form in Group 1 there later that month and this isn't any easier. Career best when winning a Group 2 at Longchamp (1m2f, heavy), too strong for Horizon Dore.
3	4 3rd (4) (15/2 -15%) Horizon Dore		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(4) Horizon Dore 15/2, Progressed well last year, gaining his fourth success in a row in Prix Dollar at Longchamp (9.7f) in September and has returned at least as good this season, losing out only in a head-bobbing finish in Grade 1 at aforementioned track on most recent outing. Respected. Usually held up and has fine turn of foot; move away from soft/heavy ground may well help.
4	1 4th (1) (13/2 +46%) Alflaila		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(1) Alflaila 13/2, Slow starter who ended 2022 firmly on the up, supplementing his Group 3 Strensall Stakes win at York with a high-class effort in the Darley Stakes at Newmarket (9f). Ran only twice in 2023, winning Group 2 at York on return before a creditable effort behind Auguste Rodin in Irish Champion Stakes. About 3l fifth of 8 to Auguste Rodin in Irish Champion Stakes, running on well from last.
5th	6 5th (6) (66/1 -230%) Royal Rhyme		66 66/1(-230%)																															(6) Royal Rhyme 66/1, Most progressive last season, bolting up in Goodwood handicap before following up in a Ayr listed race (1¼m). Far from disgraced stepped up to Group 1 level when fifth in Champion Stakes here and outclassed his 3 rivals in Brigadier Gerard Stakes at Sandown on return. Interesting contender. Needs improvement but while most form has been progressive, that's on softer than good.
6th	10 6th (10) (50/1 -1718%) Inspiral		50 50/1(-1718%)																															(10) Inspiral 50/1, High-class mare who completed a top-level hat-trick in the autumn with wins in the Sun Chariot at Newmarket (1m) and Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf at Santa Anita (1¼m). Should be all the better for her reappearance and holds leading claims. Last-gasp win at Breeders' Cup last November on her only go at 1m2f; below-form return.
7th	9 7th (9) (14/1 -17%) Blue Rose Cen		14 14/1(-17%)																															(9) Blue Rose Cen 14/1, Smart filly who had a brilliant season (for Christophere Head) last year, winning the Pouliches, Diane and the Prix de l'Opera. Ran respectably in Grade 1 at Longchamp (9.2f) on last month's reappearance and can be marked up having met trouble. Four Group 1 wins, last two over about 1m2f; not disgraced behind Horizon Dore on return.
8th	5 8th (5) (66/1 -164%) Lord North		66 66/1(-164%)																															(5) Lord North 66/1, 8-y-o who won this race 4 years ago, but he came up short bidding for a fourth successive win in Dubai Turf at Meydan (9f) in March. Ran his most encouraging race of the year when third in Mile at Sandown the following month but he's likely to find at least a couple too good back up in grade. Won this 2020; close in Group 2 latest but, as 8yo, probably no longer up to winning this.
9th	3 9th (3) (125/1 -25%) Hans Andersen		125 125/1(-25%)																															(3) Hans Andersen 125/1, Useful colt who didn't need to be at his best to make a winning reappearance in minor event at Dundalk in April. Not disgraced back up in grade the last twice but is once again biting off more than he can chew. Set pace when well beaten at 33-1 in Group 1 Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh last time.
10th	7 10th (7) (400/1 -167%) Snobbish		400 400/1(-167%)																															(7) Snobbish 400/1, Fairly useful maiden winner in France who is flying way too high at this level and is presumably here as pacemaker for stablemate Blue Rose Cen. This hugely stiff task for fifth race may be to assist pace for stablemate Blue Rose Cen.

LTO Selection:

---

16:25 Royal Ascot Group 1 (Class 1) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Six-time Group 1 winner Inspiral took the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf over this trip and she now has another crack at it after her below-par fourth in the Lockinge at Newbury last month. The daughter of Frankel boasts leading credentials, but Kieran Shoemark will have to navigate a path from a tricky draw in stall 10. With that in mind, the vote goes to AUGUSTE RODIN. Aidan O'Brien's colt had a good prep run for this contest when filling the runner-up spot in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh last time and he took the Irish Champion Stakes over this distance in September last year. The 2023 dual Derby hero has proven his versatility in regards to distance at the top level and he could prove very hard to beat. Royal Rhyme took the Brigadier Gerard in preparation for a tilt at this prestigious prize and he may run better than his odds suggest.

INSPIRAL is sure to be all the better for her reappearance and the style of her win at Santa Anita back in November strongly suggests she still has unfinished business at this trip, so she's narrowly preferred to Auguste Rodin, who took a big step back in the right direction when runner-up in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh last time. Royal Rhyme could be the one to fill the places on just his second try at the top level.

Inspiral is preferred to the inconsistent Auguste Rodin but French raider HORIZON DORE (nap) can win his first Group 1.

26	26 (26) ( ) Imperial Fighter		0 ()																															(26) Imperial Fighter , Third in Irish 2000 Guineas in 2022 but has largely struggled since, including at Sandown on Saturday. Up against it. Has lost his way; pair of duck eggs for new yard this season; opposed.
1	20 1st (20) ( ) Wild Tiger		0 ()																															(20) Wild Tiger , 5-y-o who missed whole of last season but, fit from a spell in Meydan, has returned firmly on the up, scoring comfortably at Yarmouth and Goodwood. Type to go on improving and makes obvious appeal. Lightly raced 5yo; 3-3 in British races; big player with further progress on the cards.
2	1 2nd (1) ( ) Sonny Liston		0 ()																															(1) Sonny Liston , Runner-up in this last year and shaped well without having much luck in some competitive events subsequently. It all clicked when he scored with an improved showing at Newbury on reappearance and another bold showing seems likely. Good second in this contest last year; went one better at Newbury on reappearance; solid.
3	8 3rd (8) ( ) Perotto		0 ()																															(8) Perotto , 2021 Britannia winner last seen looking as good as ever when scoring here 10 months ago and, while he'll need a career best, this is just his second season with Roger Varian and he should be tuned up for it. Won the 2021 Britannia; absent since last-gasp success in the Shergar Cup Mile last August.
4	24 4th (24) ( ) Daysofourlives		0 ()																															(24) Daysofourlives , Three-time winner who returned better than ever with a couple of excellent placed efforts at Newmarket. Already a C&D winner and visor goes on for the first time, so worthy of respect. Ran well, despite carrying head awkwardly, at Newmarket last time; steadily progressive.
5th	4 5th (4) ( ) Holloway Boy		0 ()																															(4) Holloway Boy , Debut winner in the Chesham at this meeting in 2022. Seen just twice last season and hasn't fired on either outing this term. Others are more persuasive. Won the 2022 Chesham and close fourth in the 2023 Jersey; interesting off a workable mark.
6th	11 6th (11) ( ) Coeur D'or		0 ()																															(11) Coeur D'or , Took a couple of good prizes in Irish handicaps last year and very much caught the eye faced with an inadequate test at the Curragh on return, finishing well. Back up to ideal distance with tongue tie back on, so all set for a bold showing. Irish 8yo; should be suited by the return to 1m with reappearance (6f) under his belt.
7th	23 7th (23) ( ) Metal Merchant		0 ()																															(23) Metal Merchant , C&D winner. 6/1, creditable 2½ lengths second of 12 to Sonny Liston in handicap at Newbury (8f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Likeable sort who should give another good account. Won the Spring Cup; ran creditably behind Sonny Liston last time; holds solid claims.
8th	27 8th (27) ( ) King's Code		0 ()																															(27) King's Code , Real success story for his yard, adding more wins at Southwell and Kempton at the beginning of the year. Proved beyond doubt he's still every bit as big a force on turf as all-weather when bumping into a Group-race bound winner at York and was quickly back on track at Chester 4 days ago. Mixed results since returned to turf; has nothing in hand off current mark.
9th	22 9th (22) ( ) Fantastic Fox		0 ()																															(22) Fantastic Fox , Latest win at Lingfield in January. Creditable fifth of 15 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, soft, 11/1) 19 days ago, left with too much to do. Could get competitive if things drop right. Finished behind some of these rivals in last two runs and is well exposed.
10th	15 10th (15) ( ) Ropey Guest		0 ()																															(15) Ropey Guest , Was in top form towards the end of 2023 and returned with a smooth-travelling fifth in the Victoria Cup here last month. Just as effective over 1m and should strip fitter for his return, so not ruled out. Has loads of Ascot form but is frustratingly 0-21 here and remains thoroughly exposed.
11th	2 11th (2) ( ) Sean		0 ()																															(2) Sean , Making second start for current yard, at least as good as ever when narrowly denied in a Meydan Group 3 in February. Has shaped as if still in good form since but others look better treated. Nearly won a Group 3 at Meydan in February; trainer won this race with a 7yo in 2014.
12th	21 12th (21) ( ) Mirsky		0 ()																															(21) Mirsky , Useful ex-French performer who ran creditably on the back of 6 months off (acquired for €37,000) when keeping on fifth in Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m). Might have found the race coming too soon at York next time and remains unexposed for this shrewd stable. Ex-French; has something to prove in this major race on third British start.
13th	12 13th (12) ( ) Bless Him		0 ()																															(12) Bless Him , Smart gelding who resumed from 7 months off with a good third of 21 in Victoria Cup here. Struggled up in grade at Haydock next time but can't be discounted given his excellent course record. Veteran; has form figures of 975 in this contest; close third in this year's Victoria Cup.
14th	30 14th (30) ( ) Eldrickjones		0 ()																															(30) Eldrickjones , Successful twice at Newcastle last year and stepped up on recent return when bolting up in 11-runner handicap there in May. Not in the same form at York next time and may find this too competitive. Form dipped markedly returned to turf last time; has a better strike-rate on AW.
15th	10 15th (10) ( ) Talis Evolvere		0 ()																															(10) Talis Evolvere , Successful twice on the AW during the winter and further progress when landing a valuable Newcastle handicap in March. Continued the good work returned to turf when third in competitive events at Newbury and might well be on the premises again. Creditable third in Newbury handicaps won by Metal Merchant and Sonny Liston; consistent.
16th	28 16th (28) ( ) Dutch Decoy		0 ()																															(28) Dutch Decoy , Cracking servant to connections who looked as good as ever this spring, runner-up in back-to-back competitive Newmarket handicaps. Couple of sub-par efforts since, however, so has a bit to prove in this company. Finished behind some of these rivals the last twice; weighted to his best.
17th	31 17th (31) ( ) Crack Shot		0 ()																															(31) Crack Shot , Progressive at 3 yrs and made a winning return at Newmarket in May. Did enough to suggest he remains in good heart when only fourth at Sandown last time and he's still relatively unexposed, so may have more in him. Reserve; 3-5 over 1m; soft ground possibly contributed to his defeat last time.
18th	29 18th (29) ( ) Regheeb		0 ()																															(29) Regheeb , Debut winner at Nottingham last season before landing short odds at Lingfield on third run. Good efforts both starts since back on turf but needs more if he's to seriously compete from this mark in such a competitive event. Placed in a couple of soft-ground events this term; unraced on good/firmer.
19th	16 19th (16) ( ) Aerion Power		0 ()																															(16) Aerion Power , Looked as good as ever when edging out Great Blasket (won next time) despite racing freely at Nottingham last time. Has a penalty for that and his style should suit the nature of this race, so could go well. Fourth in this race 12 months ago; incurs penalty for recent win; future mark is 3lb lower.
20th	7 20th (7) ( ) Raadobarg		0 ()																															(7) Raadobarg , Well prepped for a big run at the Curragh on reappearance but hasn't fired on either outing since. Has the right sort of style for this race, but hard to make a solid case for based on recent efforts. Placed in major Irish handicap on seasonal debut; has regressed in two subsequent runs.
21st	17 21st (17) ( ) Blue For You		0 ()																															(17) Blue For You , Encouraging start to present campaign when fourth of 17 at York (first run following a wind op). Possible that he didn't handle Epsom next time and has plenty of course experience but others are still more persuasive. On a handy mark but has a bit to prove back at Ascot; well held in this contest last year.
22nd	6 22nd (6) ( ) Beshtani		0 ()																															(6) Beshtani , Fairly useful form for Francis-Henri Graffard in France last year, winning 3 of his 5 starts at up to 9.5f. Changed hands for €340,000 prior to being narrowly denied at Epsom on return and worth chancing to go one better. Ex-French 4yo; went very close at Epsom on debut for new connections; warrants respect.
23rd	14 23rd (14) ( ) The Gatekeeper		0 ()																															(14) The Gatekeeper , Rounded off a fine 2023 season with success in the valuable Balmoral Handicap over C&D in October. Ridden too aggressively in the Lincoln on reappearance and could get back on track. Landed the Balmoral over C&D (off 4lb lower) last October but everything went his way.
24th	3 24th (3) ( ) Kingdom Come		0 ()																															(3) Kingdom Come , Low-mileage 5-y-o who confirmed promise of his Lingfield run when running out a good winner of the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March. Struggled in listed company here last time and has a stiff task from a mark of 107. In good form on AW this year; below par in C&D Listed event last time; yet to win on turf.
25th	5 25th (5) ( ) Streets Of Gold		0 ()																															(5) Streets Of Gold , Unbeaten in 5 starts as a 2-y-o and posted his best effort last season when third in the Jersey Stakes here. Back on track when sixth in the Victoria Cup here last time, shaping as if worth a go over 1m, so not ruled out. Has produced his peak RPRs in two attempts at Ascot, close sixth in Victoria Cup latest.
26th	18 26th (18) ( ) Thunder Ball		0 ()																															(18) Thunder Ball , Deservedly gained a second career win at Goodwood in October and resumed with a couple of promising efforts, shaping well under another attacking ride when fourth of 21 in handicap at Newbury on penultimate outing. Rare poor run at Newmarket last time and blinkers go back on. Ran poorly last time but record suggests he may rebound in reapplied blinkers.
27th	25 27th (25) ( ) Tempus		0 ()																															(25) Tempus , Successful twice in Group company in 2022 and though generally below par last year, he proved that plenty of ability remains when runner-up in a listed contest at Kempton in December. Both subsequent efforts have been poor, though. Blinkers go on. Ran respectably in this race in 2022 and 2023; regressive form this year; now blinkered.
28th	9 28th (9) ( ) Real Gain		0 ()																															(9) Real Gain , Low-mileage 4-y-o who landed 9f handicap at Newmarket in September. Not disgraced when fifth in Darley Stakes there following month and likely needed his return at Newbury. Remains with potential and jockey booking catches the eye. Lightly raced 4yo; appears to have been targeted at this prize; one for the shortlist.
29th	13 29th (13) ( ) Padishakh		0 ()																															(13) Padishakh , First run since leaving Roger Varian when 19¾ lengths sixth of 7 to Charyn in listed race (11/1) at Doncaster (8f, heavy) 88 days ago. Useful at his best in France and return to a sounder surface could help, but doesn't appear to have much in hand of his mark. Ex-French; comfortably held in two British races; something to prove.

LTO Selection:

17:05 Royal Ascot Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Wathnan Racing look to hold a strong hand in this contest and James Doyle presumably prefers BESHTANI to Real Gain. Having shown smart form in France, the selection was making his UK debut when finishing an excellent second behind a subsequent winner over an extended mile at Epsom last month. The handicapper left on the same mark and this four-year-old son of Siyouni can make amends for that near-miss. Wild Tiger did it well when scoring readily over 7f in a Goodwood handicap most recently and he warrants respect despite being upped 6lb. Last year's fourth, Aerion Power, looks primed for another prominent showing despite the burden of a 5lb penalty for winning at Nottingham earlier this month, while a truly-run race with a stiff finish can suit Dutch Decoy and he could earn himself a spot on the podium.

BESHTANI showed that he's still improving when an excellent second at Epsom on return and, with that form having been boosted by the winner since, he gets the vote to go one better at the possible expense of Wild Tiger, who is progressing fast. Sonny Liston is another big player and Real Gain still has some potential intact.

Being the type to improve further, BESHTANI is particularly interesting. Real Gain is second choice.

5	5 (5) (28/1 +0%) Vetiver		28 28/1(+0%)																															(5) Vetiver 28/1, Three wins, notably a 7f Carlisle listed event on soft ground last June. Showed she can mix it in good handicaps when 2½ lengths fifth of 20 to The Gatekeeper in the Balmoral over C&D final 2023 start but both efforts this spring hardly brimming with promise. Listed winner; solid fifth in Balmoral here on final 3yo run but below par this season.
1	16 1st (16) (11/1 -10%) Doha		11 11/1(-10%)																															(16) Doha 11/1, Boasts an excellent pedigree and confirmed debut promise at the second attempt when running out an emphatic winner of a Windsor maiden (1m) in October. Failed to land the odds at Haydock on reappearance but it wasn't a bad effort and she retains scope for better. Easy maiden win on soft; good second on handicap/seasonal debut; more to come.
2	18 2nd (18) (7/1 +56%) Hopeful		7 7/1(+56%)																															(18) Hopeful 7/1, Off 15 months after her debut but proved herself a useful prospect when winning at Newcastle in January. Took a step forward returned to turf when second of 6 in handicap at Redcar (10f, soft) and subsequent Newmarket run back over 1m confirms she's in good heart. Form of latest close third at Newmarket (1m) has worked out; travels strongly.
3	25 3rd (25) (22/1 +56%) Victoria Falls		22 22/1(+56%)																															(25) Victoria Falls 22/1, Won a pair of turf handicaps at the end of last summer. Deserves credit for her consistency, runner-up on her last 2 starts but they were much weaker races than this one. 1 lb out of the weights. Good second in 1m handicaps last twice but this is a rise in grade.
4	13 4th (13) (11/1 +31%) Rowayeh		11 11/1(+31%)																															(13) Rowayeh 11/1, Off the mark in a Beverley maiden (8.5f) last spring and had little fuss in following up on handicap debut at Sandown (1m) next time. Proved too free upped in trip at York on final start and in a re-fitted hood (discarded here) she wasn't seen to best effect on reappearance. Better expected. Still not fully exposed after seven runs and Newmarket reappearance was respectable.
5th	23 5th (23) (14/1 +30%) Aurora Dawn		14 14/1(+30%)																															(23) Aurora Dawn 14/1, Improver for switch to handicaps during first half of last season, comfortably doubling her tally at Newbury (7f). Entitled to have needed first start for 10 months at Kempton and easy to excuse Goodwood run latest given she was denied a clear run. Eyecatcher when meeting all sorts of trouble at Goodwood latest; one to consider.
6th	20 6th (20) (15/2 +38%) Elim		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(20) Elim 15/2, Landed the odds in third start at Newcastle and looked a handicapper to follow when following up at Musselburgh in April 2023. Off a year and reappearance was full of promise (probably needed it in the end) and she lurks on a favourable mark. Major player. Unexposed; promising return from layoff at Redcar and form boosted since; very interesting.
7th	15 7th (15) (450/1 -1025%) Moonspirit		450 450/1(-1025%)																															(15) Moonspirit 450/1, Steadily progressive as a 3-y-o, signing off last year with back-to-back victories at Chelmsford (1m) in the autumn. Shaped as if needing her reappearance on softer ground than previously at Bath but needed to see more at Kempton latest to seriously consider her. Tongue tie added. Below best in two runs this year but yard's flying form provides the hope for better now.
8th	22 8th (22) (11/1 +39%) Azahara Palace		11 11/1(+39%)																															(22) Azahara Palace 11/1, Three 1m wins at Chepstow last summer and expertly prepared to make a winning reappearance at Leicester 3 weeks ago, overcoming a pace bias in the process. That was a big career best so she enters calculations up 7 lb. Fourth win when pulling clear with a subsequent winner on Leicester return; up 7lb.
9th	1 9th (1) (400/1 -1500%) Villanova Queen		400 400/1(-1500%)																															(1) Villanova Queen 400/1, Big career best when winning this race from just 1 lb lower 12 months ago, coming in for an astute tactical ride. Campaigned in pattern company since and has struggled to make a significant impact, but big-field scenario in re-fitted cheekpieces may help her back at this level. Below best in two runs this spring but only 1lb higher than when winning this last year.
10th	19 10th (19) (450/1 -2713%) Rajindri		450 450/1(-2713%)																															(19) Rajindri 450/1, Successful twice over 7f last summer and even better form this term, confirming the promise of her reappearance when successful over the same trip at Kempton a month ago. Back up in trip in a deeper race but she commands respect. Form of latest 7f win is solid and she's only 2lb higher; stays 1m; each-way claims.
11th	14 11th (14) (100/1 -52%) Canoodled		100 100/1(-52%)																															(14) Canoodled 100/1, Did the job well when getting her head back in front at Newmarket last summer but that win was gained off a 7 lb lower mark and she hasn't really fired in 3 starts so far this season. Has failed to get competitive in three runs this season; others are preferred.
12th	2 12th (2) (18/1 +10%) Adelaise		18 18/1(+10%)																															(2) Adelaise 18/1, Caught the eye when fourth in this race a year ago, forced to pick way through and arrives on the back of a career-best effort having won a listed race on the AW in April. 12 lb higher this time around so fair to say another personal best is required. Fourth in this last year and took an AW Listed race under William Buick on reappearance.
13th	24 13th (24) (50/1 -25%) Ciara Pearl		50 50/1(-25%)																															(24) Ciara Pearl 50/1, Hit the ground running in handicaps this season, completing hat-trick over 10.2f at Bath in April. Progress has stalled somewhat from revised mark since, but a well-run race over 1m will suit her. Won four of first six starts but has found life tougher last twice.
14th	3 14th (3) (350/1 -775%) Mammas Girl		350 350/1(-775%)																															(3) Mammas Girl 350/1, Useful filly early in her career for Richard Hannon but low-key start for current yard switched to Ireland this spring, albeit set a couple of stiff tasks. Others more persuasive on this handicap debut. Won Nell Gwyn last year but has struggled at Group level subsequently.
15th	21 15th (21) (200/1 -506%) Mother Mary		200 200/1(-506%)																															(21) Mother Mary 200/1, Novice winner on second start last year. Consistent rather than progressive since, looking unsuited by drop to 7f starting out for new yard at Leicester a fortnight ago. Cheekpieces may sharpen her up. Hard to argue she's well treated but this could suit her hold-up style; cheekpieces go on.
16th	10 16th (10) (350/1 -1300%) Karsavina		350 350/1(-1300%)																															(10) Karsavina 350/1, Thought good enough to contest the 1000 Guineas when with Clive Cox last year. Limited impact both starts for N. Clement in France to end the year but opening run for Joseph O'Brien at Cork last month was promising, short of room. Fancied to build on that. Caught the eye a bit on last month's yard debut at the Curragh; big run wouldn't surprise.
17th	11 17th (11) (28/1 -250%) Summer Of Love		28 28/1(-250%)																															(11) Summer Of Love 28/1, Big eye-catcher on debut at Kempton in September and has won both starts since at that venue over 7f, looking every inch a useful prospect a fortnight ago. Different scenario here back over 1m on turf now handicapping but she brings considerable potential to the table. Two comfortable wins over 7f at Kempton and very much a dark one on turf/handicap debut.
18th	6 18th (6) (50/1 -52%) Cell Sa Beela		50 50/1(-52%)																															(6) Cell Sa Beela 50/1, Improved to make her breakthrough at listed level when winning 10-runner 7f event at this track in October, seeing off Breege. Beaten a long way in Group 3 company on last month's reappearance and needs to leave that well behind. Mid-field in the Sandringham last year previous handicap start. Won a 7f Listed race here last autumn but well held on Lingfield reappearance.
19th	8 19th (8) (200/1 -1900%) Twirling		200 200/1(-1900%)																															(8) Twirling 200/1, Unraced at 2 yrs but landed a brace of 1m novice events at Kempton in a light 3-y-o campaign. Progressive form this year, well on top at the finish when successful at Doncaster (from Roarin' Success) and 5 lb rise looks perfectly fair. Big-field scenario will suit so she's on the shortlist. Has taken well to turf, beating reopposing Roarin' Success at Doncaster latest.
20th	7 20th (7) (350/1 -2088%) Fakhama		350 350/1(-2088%)																															(7) Fakhama 350/1, Well-bred filly who overcame inexperience to make a winning debut at Newbury in April 2023 (7f). Failed to land the odds in novice company when last seen in August but this low-mileage 4-y-o is something of an unknown quantity on handicap debut for leading yard. Thrice-raced filly; very much unexposed for top yard; intriguing contender on reappearance.
21st	4 21st (4) (350/1 -2088%) Mystic Pearl		350 350/1(-2088%)																															(4) Mystic Pearl 350/1, Novice/listed winner who ran right up to form fitted with a tongue tie when a keeping-on third of 10 in a C&D handicap last month. Same mark here but needs to raise her game in this deeper race. Back-to-form third over C&D latest and runs off the same mark today.
22nd	17 22nd (17) (400/1 -2400%) Roarin' Success		400 400/1(-2400%)																															(17) Roarin' Success 400/1, C&D winner last summer and nothing wrong a with a brace of runner-up efforts last month, latterly behind Twirling at Doncaster. No reason why she won't give it another good shot. Good second to Two Tempting over C&D and Twirling at Doncaster this season.
23rd	9 23rd (9) (28/1 +30%) Back See Daa		28 28/1(+30%)																															(9) Back See Daa 28/1, Steadily-progressive filly who ran out a ready winner of a Newbury novice (1m) as year ago. Better form later that summer, shaping nicely (up with strong pace) when sixth on handicap debut at Goodwood and while she lacks a recent run, she represents an excellent yard. Off for nearly 11 months but has raced only six times so may not have reached her limit.
24th	12 24th (12) (200/1 -506%) Farhh To Shy		200 200/1(-506%)																															(12) Farhh To Shy 200/1, Strong traveller who won a C&D handicap and a 7f Yarmouth handicap in a productive spell around this time last year. Hasn't finished her races off with much conviction this term but on the plus side, she's back on her last successful mark. C&D winner; close sixth in this race off an identical mark 12 months ago.

17:40 Royal Ascot Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Summer Of Love heads the early markets after Saeed bin Suroor's Dark Angel filly scored comfortably enough on her return at Kempton and, with an opening handicap mark of 88, she can go well with a clear run, but Irish raider ADELAISE is still preferred. A little unlucky when short of room before finishing fourth here last year, she won the Listed Snowdrop Stakes at Kempton in April beating the 100-rated Choisya by a head, suggesting a mark of 98 here is workable. She looks as if she stays further so a fast-run mile could be ideal and, with William Buick booked to ride, she appears to have every chance. Villanova Queen won this last year and returns to handicap company boasting a chance, along with the lightly-raced pair Fakhama and Doha.

Having looked a handicapper going places last spring, ELIM had a year off the track but with her reappearance chock-full of promise, she's fancied to build on that for her up-and-coming stable. Summer of Love and Doha are low-mileage 4-y-os for excellent yards so they demand respect, while Azahara Palace's much-improved showing at Leicester marks her down as another interesting contender.

A host hold chances but ELIM, whose reappearance form has been boosted, appeals as one who could be well suited by a race like this.

14	14 (14) (100/1 -25%) Jm Jhingree		100 100/1(-25%)																															(14) Jm Jhingree 100/1, Won a 5f Redcar maiden in May but his limitations were seemingly exposed when third of 5 in a Beverley conditions event 11 days ago. Engaged 2.50 Catterick Tuesday. Redcar maiden winner; only seventh at Catterick yesterday and he'd be a shock winner.
1	1 1st (1) (11/2 +75%) Ain't Nobody		5.5 11/2(+75%)																															(1) Ain't Nobody 11/2, Sands of Mali colt who scored in good style on his 5f Carlisle debut (good to soft) 19 days ago. Sure to progress for a stable which has had a few run well in this down the years. 8-1 win at Carlisle on debut and Jamie Spencer excels on this straight course; a possible.
2	11 2nd (11) (22/1 -57%) Gabaldon		22 22/1(-57%)																															(11) Gabaldon 22/1, American raider who displayed plenty of speed and a good attitude when making a winning start to his career at Gulfstream (5f, firm) 39 days ago. Has a tongue strap added to his blinkers this time and sure to improve. Displayed bundles of pace and clung on at Gulfstream on debut; no surprise to see bold bid.
3	28 3rd (28) (28/1 +30%) Aviation Time		28 28/1(+30%)																															(28) Aviation Time 28/1, Kempton debut winner and unlucky third in the Hilary Needler at Beverley since, losing all winning chance when short of room and shuffled back approaching the final 1f, keeping on well in the closing stages. Definitely more to come. Had to wait for a clear run when third in Hilary Needler; each-way possible.
4	26 4th (26) (100/1 -52%) Weissmuller		100 100/1(-52%)																															(26) Weissmuller 100/1, Plenty to like about his debut third of 12 at Nottingham 17 days ago but a jolt of improvement will be needed for him to get heavily involved here. Encouraging third on debut at Nottingham but needs to find a chunk of improvement here.
5th	25 5th (25) (25/1 +38%) Vingegaard		25 25/1(+38%)																															(25) Vingegaard 25/1, Mehmas colt won a 6-runner-race on his 5f Chepstow debut (heavy) 36 days ago. His three closest pursuers on that occasion have all run well since. Capable of better. Cosy win at Chepstow on debut but others have a lot more substance to their form.
6th	19 6th (19) (50/1 +0%) Rudi's Apple		50 50/1(+0%)																															(19) Rudi's Apple 50/1, 5/1, 2¾ lengths third of 7 to reopposing Sir Yoshi in maiden at Tipperary (5f, soft) on debut 21 days ago, not knocked about. Will need to leave that bare form well behind. Promising third on debut at Tipperary; likely improver, but it's very much needed.
7th	23 7th (23) (33/1 +0%) Sir Yoshi		33 33/1(+0%)																															(23) Sir Yoshi 33/1, Made it third time lucky when a cosy winner in maiden company at Tipperary (5f, soft) 3 weeks ago. Open to further progress. Won Tipperary maiden on third start; others have better form but he's worth a second look.
8th	6 8th (6) (250/1 -279%) Calyxoh		250 250/1(-279%)																															(6) Calyxoh 250/1, Half-brother to several winners but hasn't shown enough when reaching the frame over 6f at Newmarket and Leicester in recent weeks to think he'll get heavily involved here. Went close on debut at Newmarket; fourth at Leicester since; others have stronger claims.
9th	27 9th (27) (100/1 -100%) Zabeel Road		100 100/1(-100%)																															(27) Zabeel Road 100/1, Made the perfect start at Ayr (5f) in April. Slight improvement when 3¾ lengths fourth to Shadow Army under a penalty at the York Dante meeting (5f, good). Unexposed for good yard but a big step forward will be needed. Won at Ayr on debut before solid fourth at York; others probably possess greater potential.
10th	9 10th (9) (66/1 -32%) End Of Story		66 66/1(-32%)																															(9) End Of Story 66/1, Largely knew his job when justifying favouritism in 13-runner maiden (4/1) at Thirsk (5f, soft) on debut in May. Could only run to a similar level when fifth of 10 in Woodcote at Epsom (6f, soft) since but this drop back to 5f may suit him. Won at Thirsk on debut then fair fifth in the Woodcote at Epsom; others appeal more.
11th	10 11th (10) (400/1 -506%) Fuji Mountain		400 400/1(-506%)																															(10) Fuji Mountain 400/1, Left York debut well behind when second of 12 in 5f Nottingham maiden 17 days ago, showing good speed. Runner-up at Nottingham on second run; no match for winner; needs another big step forward.
12th	17 12th (17) (80/1 -60%) Reposado		80 80/1(-60%)																															(17) Reposado 80/1, Wootton Bassett colt who left his debut behind when narrowly denied in a C&D conditions race last month. Not in quite the same form when 4¼ lengths fourth of 6 to Enchanting Empress in listed race at Sandown (5f, soft) since. Previously trained by Dominic Ffrench Davis. Has shown considerable ability (including over C&D) but now 0-3; vulnerable once more.
13th	22 13th (22) (66/1 -1220%) Shadow Army		66 66/1(-1220%)																															(22) Shadow Army 66/1, 9/2, won 11-runner novice at York (5f, good) on debut 35 days ago, just holding on from a subsequent listed winner. Has since been purchased by Wathnan Racing. Smart prospect. Won at York on debut and that form reads well; highly likeable prospect; on the shortlist.
14th	20 14th (20) (200/1 -60%) Sensorium		200 200/1(-60%)																															(20) Sensorium 200/1, 16/1, promise when third of 11 in novice at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 16/1) on debut 25 days ago, running on. Open to progress but this looks too big an ask. Encouraging third on debut at Windsor but unlikely to be good enough to threaten today.
15th	21 15th (21) (300/1 -809%) Sex On Fire		300 300/1(-809%)																															(21) Sex On Fire 300/1, 11/4, overcame inexperience to make a winning start in early 5f Southwell maiden. Ran to a similar level when third of 6 in a C&D conditions race 5 weeks later. More needed. Third over C&D last month and that form has been franked, but further improvement needed.
16th	8 16th (8) (200/1 -1150%) Cheval De Guerre		200 200/1(-1150%)																															(8) Cheval De Guerre 200/1, $450,000 breeze-up buy who showed plenty when neck second of 12 to Into Diamonds in maiden at Keeneland on debut, leading until close home. Sure to progress. Showed blistering speed on sole run in US (5.5f); could be tough to catch down to bare 5f.
17th	12 17th (12) (100/1 -456%) Hawaiian		100 100/1(-456%)																															(12) Hawaiian 100/1, Kodiac colt who made a winning start at Newbury in April and had soft ground as a possible excuse for his disappointing run in the National Stakes at Sandown since. Newbury debut win worked out extremely well; reportedly unsuited by soft ground at Sandown.
18th	7 18th (7) (10/1 -67%) Celtic Chieftain		10 10/1(-67%)																															(7) Celtic Chieftain 10/1, 450,000 gns No Nay Never colt who made a winning start to his career in a 5f Navan maiden 11 days ago. One of 2 strong contenders for his stable. Looked green when winning on recent debut at Navan; open to considerable improvement.
19th	5 19th (5) (350/1 -600%) Brosay		350 350/1(-600%)																															(5) Brosay 350/1, Made it third time lucky in Goodwood novice (5f, heavy) in May and better form when 2 lengths third of in conditions race at Tipperary (5f, heavy) 22 days ago. One win from his four starts, in a heavy-ground Goodwood novice; improvement is needed.
20th	18 20th (18) (350/1 -600%) Rock N Roll Rocket		350 350/1(-600%)																															(18) Rock N Roll Rocket 350/1, Made winning start in 12-runner maiden at Cork (5f, good, 16/1) in May and might have been unsuited by much softer ground when well beaten at Tipperary since. Form of debut win at Cork has worked out well; soft ground maybe didn't suit at Tipperary.
21st	3 21st (3) (300/1 -809%) Artagnan		300 300/1(-809%)																															(3) Artagnan 300/1, £350,000 breeze-up purchase who bumped into a promising sort when 2 lengths second of 10 on Ripon debut (5f, good to firm) a fortnight ago. Sure to improve. Runner-up on recent debut but this half-brother to Marshman could have lots more to offer.
22nd	15 22nd (15) (200/1 -203%) Karl Carlston		200 200/1(-203%)																															(15) Karl Carlston 200/1, 7/4, trained by Dominic Ffrench Davis when third of 14 in maiden at Bath (5.7f, good) on debut 35 days ago. Huge improvement will be needed. Inexperience evident when third on debut at Bath; may be best watched in this hot race.
23rd	24 23rd (24) (200/1 -3900%) Treasure Isle		200 200/1(-3900%)																															(24) Treasure Isle 200/1, Built on his promising debut second in the mud at the Curragh when taking a 5f conditions race at Naas next time under much faster conditions. That was a very useful performance and he has the potential for better again. Leading claims. Made all at Naas on second start; O'Brien/Moore have won 3 of last 9 runnings; respected.
24th	13 24th (13) (400/1 -2400%) Honorary American		400 400/1(-2400%)																															(13) Honorary American 400/1, Evens, blinkered when third of 6 in maiden at Aqueduct (5.5f) on debut 26 days ago. Plenty to find on form but his US trainer is well known for juvenile success at this meeting. Only third on debut but that was on dirt; US trainer won this in 2009 and 2014.
25th	2 25th (2) (350/1 -338%) Arabian Cobra		350 350/1(-338%)																															(2) Arabian Cobra 350/1, Went close in 6f Windsor novice on second start but only fifth of 15 at Haydock since. Would be a shock winner. Has shown promise but he's 0-3 and up against it today.
26th	16 26th (16) (250/1 -1983%) Pont Neuf		250 250/1(-1983%)																															(16) Pont Neuf 250/1, Made it 2-2 when leading towards the finish in 5f Salisbury novice (heavy) 34 days ago. Can progress again for a stable which knows what it takes to win this. 2-2 after wins at Kempton and Salisbury; latest form has worked out well; chance.
27th	4 27th (4) (400/1 -220%) Bretton Wood		400 400/1(-220%)																															(4) Bretton Wood 400/1, Only fair form when fifth on all 3 starts and first-time blinkers need to transform him. Has shown ability when fifth on all three starts but he'd be a surprise winner today.

18:15 Royal Ascot Listed (Class 1) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Wathnan Racing might have another useful one on their hands with SHADOW ARMY, who overcame inexperience to defeat subsequent Listed winner Francisco's Piece at York on his debut. Richard Fahey's yard has hit a rich vein of form in recent weeks and he could continue that trend, but Aidan O'Brien knows what it takes to land this contest and his pair Treasure Isle and Celtic Chieftain must be feared. Pont Neuf made it two from two when winning at Salisbury last month and he is another who looks more than capable at this higher level. There is no shortage of an American challenge with the likes of Gabaldon and Honorary American taking their chance, and the former, who made a successful debut at Gulfstream last month, rates the pick of them.

TREASURE ISLE recorded a useful performance at Naas last month and is taken to provide the Aidan O'Brien/Ryan Moore combination with a fourth win in this since 2015. Richard Fahey's juveniles have been going well and Shadow Army looked a nice prospect when edging out a subsequent French listed winner on his York debut in May. The selection's stablemate Celtic Chieftain and sole filly Aviation Time, who looked unlucky at Beverley recently, complete the shortlist.

Preference is for CELTIC CHIEFTAIN, whose debut win at Navan was a performance packed with promise. Cheval de Guerre is feared.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing.
