15:10 Ascot (R3) 6f C1 Group 3 8 runners

Analyst Verdict 1-2-3

The first 3 from last year's Middle Park meet again in this Group 3 but there's a chance they may be caught cold on their return by GHOST MODE, who scored in impressive fashion on his handicap debut last time and is unexposed at this trip. Brussels may have to settle for another runner-up spot ahead of his Newmarket conqueror Wise Approach.

7 (2)

GHOST MODE (IRE) C. T. Keane

6/17

Raced mainly at 7f last year, winning a maiden at Chester before being collared late on in a sales race at York. Was much improved when winning 8-runner event on handicap debut at Southwell back at 6f in March. Unexposed as a sprinter and looks worth his place in this. Position Prediction: 1

3 (6)

BRUSSELS Ryan Moore

11/43.75

Debut winner at the Curragh last year. Proved expensive to follow after, finishing runner-up on 4 occasions, including twice at the highest level. However, gets a 4 Ib pull at the weights with Wise Approach on their Middle Park meeting and has to be taken seriously. Position Prediction: 2

1 (3)

WISE APPROACH (IRE) William Buick

7/42.75

Smart colt who won 3 times in 2025, emulating his half-brother Perfect Power in winning the Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket (6f), showing a willing attitude after nearly coming down at the start. Has a penalty to carry but he's a serious player on first start as a 3-y-o. Position Prediction: 3
