NEW FALCON is a game son of New Approach who showed greenness on debut, before stepping up on that and finishing second on the all weather behind a well backed favourite. He shapes the right way, and looks too big at double figure odds. Similar story with SEQUENCE for Sir Michael Stoute and Her Majesty The Queen, who debuts in handicap company for the first time. On a lenient mark, and a daughter of Selkirk, she should appreciate the step up in trip to a mile and a half. ROC FORT goes for an in form stable, and could spring an upset in the maiden contest. A gelded son of Rock of Gibraltar, Sir Henry Cecil has the favourite who is odds on, and the Ruth Carr three year old should be able to run into a place at the very least at around the 20/1 mark. ON THE HIGH TOPS goes with Shirley Teasdale for the same trainer and is the standout rider in this apprentice handicap. The course and distance winner is down to a career low mark of 59 and although beaten soundly, has been running rather gamely. At the foot of the weights, she has solid claims on only her fourth start of the season thus far.

SHARAARAH steps back down into handicap company after running with credit in the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot, only beaten by eight lengths. The form of that is shaping nicely, and the filly beat New Falcon on her maiden win, hopefully both can win and doubly-frank the form! THISTLE BIRD was tipped up on here when winning last time out at Windsor in a nice little listed contest. He stayed on powerfully that day, and with under his belt, and the stiffer task of Ascot, he should thrive. He looks the best bet on the card. A couple of outsider fancies to round off with and KANGAROO COURT was an exceptional juvenile hurdler, giving trainer Emma Lavelle her first Cheltenham Festival win. He has claimed two wins on the flat in the last few months and is a gutsy stayer who will appreciate the two mile trip. William Buick booked is a big positive and at around 12/1 looks a fair price. ROAYH is the outsider of the entire field in the 4.40, but shouldn’t be overlooked, despite carrying top weight. The Godolphin gelding has ran at Lingfield, Epsom and Sandown since signing off his season last year with second in a twenty runner handicap at HQ and a mark of 95. With three runs under his belt, and down to a mark of 90, he has been given the chance to bounce back, and has exceptional form as a two year old and solid form at three. Hopefully here is where he bounces back in style.
