Key races and best bets
MORE THUNDER - 14:27 Ascot
MORE THUNDER fully confirmed he belongs at the top level when runner-up in the Queen Anne Stakes at the Royal meeting and is clearly the one to beat on that form back down in grade. Zeus Olympios hasn't quite gone as expected this year but remains low mileage and should be very competitive back at this slightly lower level. Seagulls Eleven has taken his form up a couple of notches of late and appeals as the likeliest to fill the places.
RAAMMEE - 15:45 York
Roger Varian's lightly-raced RAAMMEE rates just the pick of the weights on the back of an excellent Sandown second and with this step up in trip also rating a positive, he looks the way to go in a cracking John Smith's Cup. Both Warrant Holder and Yabher also look to have better days ahead of them and rate major threats. Respond, Danger Bay and Quai De Bethune also warrant plenty of respect in this wide-open contest.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN - 16:00 Newmarket
ABRAHAM LINCOLN passed his first test with flying colours when comfortably winning a Curragh maiden 15 days ago and he looks an exciting prospect for his leading yard, who last won this race with the top-class City of Troy in 2023. Both renewals since have gone the way of Charlie Appleby so Al Hudaiba isn't taken lightly, with Pikachu also in the mix after his Royal Ascot effort.
SATONO REVE - 16:35 Newmarket
A well-up-to scratch renewal with the two 6f Group 1 sprints at Royal Ascot probably the key pieces of form. SATONO REVE came up agonisingly short for the second time in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes and is tentatively selected to reverse the placings with Almeraq and provide Japan with a second win in this prestigious race. Venetian Sun ought to confirm the Commonwealth Cup form with her re-opposing rivals and she demands respect, too.
