LEG 1 Relief Rally
Looks the one to beat after a hugely promising effort when second at Newbury a fortnight ago. That was even more commendable because it was her first start since May.
LEG 2 Al Aasy, Al Qareem
AL AASY is not getting any younger at the age of seven but looked at the peak of his powers when smashing the course record at Newbury last time. He’s proven on softer ground and will get this race run to suit with plenty of competition for the lead.
AL QAREEM won this race last year after beating Bluestocking in the Listed Stand Cup at Chester. She comes in again off the exact same preparation having won that race again and she’s proven on soft ground and is very reliable.
LEG 3 English Oak, Jarraaf
ENGLISH OAK has course and distance form and won impressively in a big Royal Ascot Handicap here earlier in the season. Second in a Listed last time out but vet reported he lost a shoe. Can crack on today.
JARRAF won over course and distance on last TWO runs. Unbeaten over six furlongs and can handle the step up in class.
LEG 4 Carrytheone, United Approach, Volterra
CARRYTHEONE has no room for error off top-weight, but no one rides the straight course at Ascot better than Spencer. He has gone close a few times in these big handicaps and if his top rider can smuggle him through then he has every chance.
UNITED APPROACH is proven in the mud and ran a race full of promise when going down narrowly over track and trip last time. First-time cheekpieces will sharpen him up.
VOLTERRA has yet to race on soft, but was a classy fourth last time out in the Mile Handicap at York. Dropping back down in trip should suit him.
LEG 5 Ornellaia, Queen Of Mougins
ORNELLAIA was placed in a Group 1 last season and second in a French Group 2 before that, could be worth chancing. Doesn’t mind the mud either.
QUEEN OF MOUGINS has been coming close all season for firing trainer Ralph Beckett and can get her nose in front with cheekpieces on for the first time.
LEG 6 Badri, Fantasy Master
BADRI won this last year off a much higher mark (13lb more), and can go in any ground. Looks to have a solid chance.
FANTASY MASTER won well last time out at Doncaster and can handle 5lbs more.
