Verdict

Quiet Soul made a promising start to her racing career when runner-up at Newcastle three weeks ago and is respected. However, newcomer RULER'S PRIDE gets the vote. The son of Mehmas fetched 550,000gns at the Breeze-Ups last month and is bred for speed, especially given that his dam is closely related to smart US sprinter Campanelle. Crystal Queen can chase the pair home.

Top Tip: Ruler's Pride (1)
Watch out for: Quiet Soul (4)

Quiet Soul showed plenty on her debut at Southwell and boasts an experience edge over her three rivals but RULER'S PRIDE has an appealing profile, being from a top yard and having cost 550,000gns. He's taken to make a winning debut before heading to Royal Ascot. Crystal Queen makes some appeal also and could easily have a say for good connections.
