Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: So Regal
So Regal is the pick in a tightly knit Ascot 7f contest, rated 102 and just a pound behind the joint top-rated pair, with a progressive profile giving her the edge over those higher-rated rivals. On good to firm ground the profile of an improving type is what we want to side with, and the margin to the top of our ratings is slim enough to overturn. Awaken and Domina Ignis share the top rating of 103 and are the obvious dangers, while Midnight Tango is on the same 102 as our selection and cannot be dismissed. This is a competitive Class 1 renewal with little between the leading half-dozen, but So Regal's upward trajectory makes her the one to side with.
