KEEP BUSY (1.15 Ascot, 1pt each-way 12/1)
John Quinn’s KEEP BUSY (stall 21 of 22) is not quite in the same league as stablemate Liberty Beach but she too had a very successful juvenile season, scoring three times including in a Listed race at Chantilly over 5f110y.
She coped well with the drop back to 5f when placed in a Listed race at Sandown last Saturday, the 16-1 shot finding only 15-8 favourite Lazuli too good. She wasn’t helped by racing on the inside rail from stall 1 that day, a draw that used to be favoured at Sandown but hasn’t been in recent years. She’s well drawn on the evidence of the first two days of the Royal meeting.

MIGHTY SPIRIT (1.15 Ascot, 1pt each-way 16/1)
MIGHTY SPIRIT ran over course and distance in last year’s Queen Mary, finishing a 20-1 sixth of 25 and doing second best of the far side bunch behind Liberty Beach, who was rated 105 prior to her King’s Stand Stakes third on Tuesday.
That was the first time that Richard Fahey’s filly finished out of the frame and it has only happened once since, when a two-length fifth of 12 in a York Listed contest. Her record on good or softer going reads 6321 (1-4) and she looks a major player off a mark of 90 on her handicap debut.
GEORGE CORNELIUS wears a hood for the first-time and such runners have a six from 26 record at Royal Ascot since 2009 for a profit of £42.50 to a £1 level stake. He could go well from stall 15 despite an odds-on defeat on his recent debut for the Karl Burke yard.

UNDERTAKE (1.50 Ascot, 1.5pts win 12/1)
Roger Varian’s UNDERTAKE (stall 12 of 14) lived up to her name when making a winning debut at Lingfield, ducking up the inside to challenge where the Polytrack surface looked slower. She’s a qualifier on my ‘Kodiac 2yo system’, as was Yazaman, 20-1 second from a poor low draw in the Windsor Castle Stakes on Wednesday. Her trainer has only had four juvenile fillies run at Royal Ascot and two of those won for a profit of £16.00 to a £1 level stake.

MAHALE (1.50 Ascot, 1pt each-way 25/1)
I wrote up MAHALE in the Racing Post Weekender after her debut fourth to Queen Mary fancy Sacred at Newmarket where she ran a blinder to finish so close from the worst of the draw in stall 1 (first three drawn 12, 8 and 11 of 12). She was also asked to come from off the pace, hard to do on the Rowley Mile, and is also worth a bet despite a potentially tricky draw in stall 4.

EYE OF HEAVEN (2.25 Ascot, 2pts win 7/4)
EYE OF HEAVEN (stall 5 of 14) was a huge eyecatcher on his debut at Newmarket, winning from a poor low draw in stall 3. Yes, he was the even-money favourite but he got no cover in the early stages, racing keenly, and couldn’t get on to the favoured rail.
Get It, runner-up from stall 8 after making the running and third home Tactical, also well drawn, have both franked the form this week and the winning margin of three-quarters of a length underestimates his superiority that day. Frankie Dettori eased him down close home and he left the firm impression that he could have won by several lengths had he had the benefit of the rail.
