![]() ![]() Selections: Spangled Mac (No 18) and Bless Him (No 5) Bless Him is fancied to go well once again in this race (Pic: Focusonracing) Leg Fourģ.00 Ascot: Moet & Chandon International Stakes (Heritage Handicap) The Roger Varian stable is going well and has a good strike-rate with runners returning after a year away (22%), while the yard's sole runner in this race, Princess Noor, was a winner back in 2013. ![]() The Irish trainer has good figures with his runners in Britain and Cadeau Belle looks a real improver for the yard, winning going away last time, and she can take another step forward now and finish in the shake-up.Īmeynah has been off the track for a long time, but she was fourth in the 1000 Guineas over a year ago and that is excellent form in this context. The Listed race won by Cadeau Belle at Navan last month has worked out well enough and Johnny Murtagh's filly can make a winning visit to British shores and plunder this Group Three prize. Selections: Cadeau Belle (No 5) & Ameynah (No 1) Johnny Murtagh does well with his runners in Britain and his a progressive filly on his hands (Pic: Focusonracing Leg ThreeĢ.25 Ascot: Longines Valiant Stakes (Group 3) Soprano finished best of all in the Albany, but she ran at Sandown only on Thursday and her trainer indicated afterwards that the Sweet Solera up in trip back at Newmarket may be the likeliest next step. Pretty Crystal finished in front of Komat at the royal meeting and she can fill the places again here in ane exciting race of unexposed fillies but one in which there is a lack of Group or Listed form on offer. The form of the Albany Stakes is working out pretty well and Komat travelled particularly nicely approaching the closing stages at Royal Ascot and finished in a fashion which suggests she has more to offer. Selections: Komat (No 5) & Pretty Crystal (No 8) The Albany won by Porta Fortuna is form that is expected to hold up well in the Princess Margaret (Dan Abraham / ) ![]() Leg Twoġ.50 Ascot: Bateau London Princess Margaret Stakes (Group 3) Of the newcomers, Richard Hannon isn't readily associated with debut winners in the way his father was but Timebar has several siblings who scored first time out and the trainer knows the family well. The Charlie Fellowes yard does well here and has at least hit the places with three of their seven runners in Ascot maiden and novice races so far. Of the rest, Appellant is also likely to improve for his debut this month where he fared best of those patiently ridden and showed decent work late on at Ayr. The booking of William Buick here is interesting too, with the rider and trainer teaming up to good effect in their careers to date (19%, +£62.67) and the pair have combined for eight wins from 22 starts together this Flat turf season. However, Kodiac Thriller did shape nicely in second behind a well-backed winner at Windsor last time and Charlie Hils' colt featured in the shake-up among rivals who already boasted racecourse experience. ![]() Selections: Kodiac Thriller (No 7) & Appellant (No 2) Charlie Hills could land the opener at Ascot on Saturday (Pic: Focusonracing)Įleven runners - with nearly have of the field unraced - make this a tricky opener with the level of form on offer not at such a daunting level for the newcomers to aim at.
