      Predicted 1st

      Arc Ole Ole

      12/1

      Back-to-back wins, featherweight 8-8, and a pace set up for late finishers — this horse's trajectory is the sharpest in the field at a price the market has left unattended.

      Missed — Finished 5th
    2. 🥈
      Predicted 2nd

      Into The Light

      5/1

      Form 122, William Buick engaged, SR 70 is low but the 5/1 market signal is the strongest in the race — prominent run likely to collect a place at minimum.

      Missed — Finished 11th
    3. 🥉
      Predicted 3rd

      Enceladus

      10/1

      Ryan Moore, 8-12, form ending in a win — the 33-1 last run was a step up and Moore rarely wastes a ride in a Heritage Handicap at this level.

      Placed — Finished 1st
    4. 4
      Predicted 4th

      Heyzoom

      13/2

      Form 3-21 shows a recent win, 8-8 weight, and Saffie Osborne's booking at 13/2 implies stable confidence in a horse that handles a good-ground mile-and-three.

      Predicted 1st

      Sea Venture

      11/2

      SR 138 on 9-0 weight is the single best combination of class and weight allowance in the race; George Scott's filly is unbeaten and gets a true gallop to aim at.

      Missed — Finished 6th
    2. 🥈
      Predicted 2nd

      Time For The Moon

      6/1

      Joint-highest SR at 137, market support at 6/1, and a trainer in Charlie Johnston who rarely misses at this level with a prepared juvenile.

      Missed — Finished 10th
    3. 🥉
      Predicted 3rd

      Aperoll

      9/1

      SR 138 and the same weight relief as Sea Venture at 9-0; Richard Hannon's colt gets the trip and Pat Dobbs keeps it simple from a clean draw.

    4. 4
      Predicted 4th

      Aix La Chapelle

      7/4

      SR 135 with Ryan Moore aboard keeps him in the frame, but topweight of 9-5 against higher-rated rivals on lighter terms erodes the market case.

      Sergei Diaghilev

      unpriced

      Ryan Moore's booking for O'Brien's sole runner, a clean winning debut, and the pace setup across a true six furlongs all point here. SR 135 is honest but the connections elevate t…

      Moonrise

      unpriced

      SR 138 — the joint-top mark — with an 8-11 pull in the weights and a winning debut under PJ McDonald for Balding. Three pounds lighter than most rivals is a real asset in a sprint…

      A Bear Affair

      unpriced

      Joint-top SR 138 and a solid form string of 1-3-7 showing genuine placed consistency. Sean Levey and Richard Hannon know Ascot sprints; this colt picks up prize money.

      Missed — Finished 6th

      Predicted 4th

      Celeron

      unpriced

      Unbeaten, Colin Keane booked from the O'Callaghan yard, SR 135 is competitive. Front-running style risks getting swamped late but the talent to fill a place is clearly there.

      All Moonshine

      unpriced

      Three wins from last four, lightest competitive weight in the leading group at 8-8, Watson retains the ride — the form and weight combination is the clearest edge in this field.

      Missed — Finished 15th
    2. 🥈
      Predicted 2nd

      Rumba Numba

      unpriced

      Last run was a win, same weight of 8-9, Varian and Mitchell a strong combination — Rumba Numba is the horse most likely to beat the selection.

      Missed — Finished 5th
    3. 🥉
      Predicted 3rd

      Radiant Beauty

      unpriced

      Ryan Moore does not take Ascot rides for fun; 113 form earlier in her sequence is class that a bounce-back run can reproduce on Good to Firm ground.

      Missed — Finished 13th
    4. 4
      Predicted 4th

      Gaga Girl

      unpriced

      SR 81 is the second-highest in the field and she ran a recent 12 sequence, but 9-4 at the top of the weights is a stiff ask in a 25-runner cavalry charge.

      Missed — Finished 9th

      Indalo

      8/1

      Archivist

      Predicted 3rd

      Mister Winston

      14/1

      Form of 40-161 shows Oisin Murphy found the key last time; SR:93 on just 9-4 is a fair weight, and Balding knows how to target these heritage handicaps on Ascot's straight mile.

      Missed — Finished 23rd
    4. 4
      Predicted 4th

      Jagged Edge

      11/1

      Form reads 1010-1, three wins from five finishing positions — he knows how to win. SR:82 is modest but Colin Keane will place him perfectly and 9-4 is workable in this field.

      Missed — Finished 12th

      Ombudsman

      unpriced

      Highest SR in the field at 119, back-to-back wins, Buick booked, and a true Ascot gallop sets up his strong finish perfectly.

    2. 🥈
      Predicted 2nd

      Daryz

      unpriced

      SR 118, consecutive victories, and Barzalona for Graffard is a formidable cross-Channel combination — he'll be finishing fastest of all bar the winner.

      Placed — Finished 3rd
    3. 🥉
      Predicted 3rd

      Minnie Hauk

      unpriced

      The 3lb weight allowance and Ryan Moore are enough to pinch third; SR 115 is workmanlike but this pace and trip suits her better than last time.

      Placed — Finished 2nd
    4. 4
      Predicted 4th

      Almaqam

      unpriced

      SR 112 and a 1233-1 form line confirm he competes honestly; setting the pace off a good weight of 9-2, he'll be caught late but not disgraced.

      Blue Bolt

      unpriced

      SR-104, form 1122-1, last-time-out winner under Colin Keane — the strongest recent form in the field and the pace will be honest enough to suit her finishing style.

      Nailed it · Finished 1st
    2. 🥈
      Predicted 2nd

      Carolina Jetstream

      unpriced

      Ryan Moore's booking on a 4yo who has twice won recently gives this 9-2 shot claims; SR-99 is workmanlike but Moore extracts every point from it.

      Missed — Finished 6th
    3. 🥉
      Predicted 3rd

      Godspeed

      unpriced

      SR-98, form 8147-2 shows a placed effort last time; James Doyle keeps this yard honest and a second consecutive placed run at this level is achievable.

      Missed — Finished 9th
    4. 4
      Predicted 4th

      Noche Clasica

      unpriced

      Form of 131-14 shows a winner and a placed effort in recent starts; Kevin Stott can pinch a position off a strong pace and the 4yo profile fits the race.

      Predicted 1st

      Point Of Law

      unpriced

      SR 141 tops the field, his 21 form is progressive, and a true-run Good to Firm Ascot mile-and-six plays directly to his sustained galloping style under James Doyle.

      Placed — Finished 4th
    2. 🥈
      Predicted 2nd

      Galiyan

      unpriced

      SR 139 makes Galiyan the only other horse in this field operating at Group 2 quality; Oisin Murphy will ensure he runs his race and he'll finish clear of the rest.

      Missed — Finished 6th
    3. 🥉
      Predicted 3rd

      Limestone

      unpriced

      Form figures of 321-11 show consistency if not class; Dylan Browne McMonagle will get the best out of him for third in a moderately-rated chasing pack.

      Placed — Finished 1st
    4. 4
      Predicted 4th

      Port Of Spain

      unpriced

      Ryan Moore drags Port Of Spain into the places through sheer horsemanship, but an SR of 90 and a stop-start form line of 1537-5 cap his ceiling at fourth.

      Love A Giggle

    2. 🥈
      Predicted 2nd

      Shining Moment

      unpriced

      Wesley Ward's more experienced runner; SR-140 and a runner-up on latest start shows she handles pressure. Oisin Murphy is the right jockey for a big-field sprint.

    3. 🥉
      Predicted 3rd

      Big Negotiator

      unpriced

      SR-142 and a form line of 321 shows consistent improvement; P J McDonald is quietly underrated in these big-field juvenile sprints.

      Predicted 4th

      Armor Supreme

      unpriced

      SR-142 with form reading 12 — she has run at the top of this division already. Rossa Ryan will position her to take full advantage of any splits.

      Valiancy

      unpriced

      SR 90, best form in the race on a 1321-1 string, 9-10 weight is workable, Haggas-Doyle axis, and a pace scenario that sets up her finishing kick perfectly.

      Predicted 2nd

      Gamrai

      unpriced

      Joint-top SR of 90 with Oisin Murphy aboard and a recent second suggests a horse close to peak fitness; Gosden horses rarely run badly at Ascot in midsummer.

      Predicted 3rd

      Sing Us A Song

      unpriced

      James McDonald takes the ride and the 971-32 shows a horse that competes at this level; 9-9 is a fair weight and Ralph Beckett's four-year-olds often run well fresh.

      Predicted 4th

      Daiquiri Bay

      unpriced

      Rossa Ryan on a horse that last won at 4353-1 suggests confidence; Alan King targeting this race specifically, though a class rise makes the frame rather than the win more likely.
