1.50 Ascot - Princess Margaret Stakes- Simmering

An interesting juvenile for Ollie Sangster who is still a maiden but has posted the best form coming into this contest.

2.05 York - Jump Jockeys Nunthorpe - Soul Seeker

A chance for the jump jockeys to test their skills in a 5 furlong sprint and Soul Seeker is looking for his third win in the race.

2.25 Ascot - Valiant Stakes - Soprano

This is a tricky race to unpick, but it might just be worth siding with Royal Acsot winner Soprano to bounce back.

2.40 -Sky Bet Dash Handicap - Rage Of Bamby

Risks come attached but Rage Of Bamby makes plenty of appeal on only her second handicap outing after looking a very talented juvenile.

3.00 Ascot - Moet And Chandon International Stakes - Hickory

One horse that seems to always crop up at an attractive looking price and smart looking profile in these kinds of handicaps is James Fanshawe’s Hickory.

3.15 York - York Stakes - Passenger

Won his maiden as a 3 year old before coming a close 3rd in the Dante Stakes at this venue. Seemingly hated Epsom in the Derby and finished a poor 12th before winning at Windsor on his last outing of the campaign.

3.40 Ascot - King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Qipco Stakes - Dubai Honour

It’s a strong renewal of the King George, but this race can throw up a surprise and there’s some in the market who can throw in a poor run every now and then.
