My main hope was Navajo Charm but its a NR, a few others stick out but
not sure, have took a giant leap of faith with a small eway Fine Kingdom
4.10, not only is the race looking tough for it but also has pretty ordinary
form, just playing the cheekpieces angle on Kings Best, worth a small ew 22/1

Meoldmate, he has looked a thorough stayer to me so far, and I don't think it's a coincidence that his career best came over 2m in the Queen's Vase last summer. He was disappointing next time when stepped back to 1m 5f at HQ, and was quickly put in his place by Barbican on his final run back at Ascot over the trip he tackles today.

That said, he does have the make and shape and also the pedigree to do much better at four (unraced as a 2yo), and the fact he remains in training suggests connections are also expectant of a good season; remember being disappointed with Manifest after a low-key end to his 3yo campaign, and look what he went on to do at four. Cecil handles these types of horses very carefully, so they naturally have improvement in them when it comes to their second season; today will tell us a lot more about whether or not Solar Sky will be a serious player in the Cup races.

Cheers Aiden, put this one into a fair prospect, just wondering, if he is forward enough to do himself justice with a light weight here.
There is form with several here with a line through Barbican.
Dandino improved dlast year as a good stayer.
Good race to look forward too.

1.50 Lingfield

place Lay on fav for me @ 1.39

too short first of all, was beaten at similar odds last time,
all of these lot have some sort of chance and you couldn't rule any of them out, as most of them have decent weights to carry when you include their marks
jockey is terrible on the flat and he does do better on the aw but still this horse is too short and I think a few of these could trouble it

hmm no

my only other bet is Dreamy Ciara 2.10 Nottingham Fingers Crossed

Unlucky IM.... Chjimes should have won that. Can't believe Waabel won though.... makes me want to pull out the Martingale system!!
