3:45 Ascot Tips

You get the feeling that course winner Rashabar might have a big chance in today’s contest, dropping back to one mile in a race without too many front-runners. The Coventry Stakes winner from two years ago is drawn near the stands’ side rail, which should give James Doyle a straightforward ride. He was aimed at some competitive races last year and ran with credit, often making the frame and sometimes finding one too good. Usually going well after a break, he meets easier opponents than he normally does and looks fairly priced at 11/2, with each-way insurance.

Strongly built gelded son of King Man & Bound ( Dam's sire Galileo ) who was last seen at York 251 days ago where not shown to best effect in the Sky Bet Strensall Group 3 Stakes when last of 8 however now arriving here in top nick and in very good heart open to plenty of progress especially now as a 4yo J & T Gosden's inmate is most certainly one to keep a very close eye on and earns my vote to take this Memberships At Ascot Paradise Class 1 Listed Stakes yard also saddles Chancellor here however Bowmark is the percentage call in my point of view jockey R L Moore takes the ride and can give Bowmark a promising ride here at Ascot not one to underestimate . Respected .

Runner-up in the Balmoral over course and distance in October. Last seen over a furlong further at Meydan at the end of February when 3rd of 8 and will appreciate the drop back to a mile.
