Verdict
Chancellor best, Royal Playwright overpriced after a long break.
Parade ring updates
7 Seagulls Eleven - very fit, two handlers and gradually starting to get on toes; completely normal for him.
6 Royal Playwright - fairly fit after a long break; not entirely dismissed.
4 Persica - very lean, starting to get a little warm but no major concerns.
8 Skukuza - sweating heavily, but does tend to present this way; doesn’t make appeal against some.
2 Chancellor - makes plenty of appeal, strong deep chested type, defined.
1 Boiling Point - looks in great order, high level of rib definition, little tense but does tend to present this way.
3 Ice Max - strong gelding, tends to present the same, fit.
5 Qirat - fit and fine, no major negatives.

Sam James: "He impressed me today, he really hit the gates and attacked the race. I had them beat from a long way out I felt. The step up in trip was no problem. This horse hasn't done anything wrong in all his starts; he was beat by a very good horse of Kevin Ryan's that went onto win at Sandown in a listed race, he won at Musselburgh, he was second behind a very fast horse of Becca Menzies' so he hasn't really done anything wrong.
"It's good to soft, they're getting into it a bit but when they're going forward it's alright.
"I'll leave that to Phil [Royal Ascot or not]. I suppose with them getting rid of the Windsor Castle and things like that, it's not as easy for these types of horses but that's why we decided to come here."
Verdict
Hickory Lad and The Bookkeeper best pair.
Social Spirit negative.
Parade ring updates
10 Rlasthope - late to paddock; red hood. Strong and fit.
2 Dandyman Dan - very keen and strong, would be a concern.
13 Romidijo - little plain compared to some of these, okay at best.
14 Time And Effort - might still need a run.
4 Hickory Lad - physically forward, well developed, like.
1 Alpe d'Huez - has height and fit; little tense and tight.
12 Havana Flash - still quite weak and small, will improve.
7 Wild Terrain - makes appeal, very straight forward demeanour, good level of definition.
6 The Bookkeeper - physically forward compared to some, has chest and girth, likeable.
11 Social Spirit - very keen and spooky; concern.
5 Possessive - very small colt; even for a Burke, very fit.
8 Ardad Steve - straight forward demeanour, fair definition behind.
3 El Lambo - very lean, not a scrap of fat on him.

Oisin Murphy: "She's bred to improve for these conditions, it's close to soft ground. She loved it, push button ride, really fast out of the gate and an improving filly; well done to Katie."
Katie Scott: "This is our biggest ever winner. We've only got 21 horses and it means so much to us; it's a big team effort.
"The winners on the big days are why we do this; we're only a small yard and to reward owners with winners like this is fantastic. It might not be tonight because we've got important runners tomorrow but there'll be a big party soon."

Coyy and Rosie Frith best pair.
