WIMBLEDON HAWKEYE (5.35) ran well in the Dante last time and is respected with the Owen yard still in good form.

OUT of the shadows and into the limelight — that’s what I’m expecting for last season’s champion juvenile at Ascot on Friday.
We’ve made it to Day Four of the Royal meeting, and SHADOW OF LIGHT (3.05) — last season’s Group 1 Middle Park and Dewhurst hero — drops back in trip for the Commonwealth Cup.
PAIs Shadow Of Light a bit of a good thing in what would normally be a hugely competitive Commonwealth?[/caption]
Like many, I suspect he will take all the beating after his comeback third to stable companion Ruling Court and Field Of Gold in the 2,000 Guineas.
Shadow Of Light might well have won that race if he had been delivered a little later, but whatever the case, the drop to 6f should be exactly what he will enjoy and I just think he will be far too good.
I’m happy with stall 19, so come on, William Buick.
GOLD DIGGER (2.30) can get the day off to a flyer in the Albany Stakes.
She looked special on debut at Yarmouth and it would be a famous winner here for Phil Cunningham and Richard Spencer.
I was there that day, and many thought Awaken would take all the beating for George Boughey.
She ran well, but was no match for Gold Digger, a Starman offspring who cost 260,000gns at the Craven Breeze-Up sale.
She stays well and will be well suited to a Jamie Spencer special from off the pace. Stall 14 should not be an issue.
ETHICAL DIAMOND (3.40) was fourth in the Duke Of Edinburgh last year when the 7-4 favourite.
But he was out in stall 18 that day and get a much handier box in stall seven this time.
The Willie Mullins challenger will hopefully be a stronger horse this time as he just weakened late on in 2024 and I suspect he will take all the stopping under Ryan Moore.
He was a fine fourth at Cheltenham in the County Hurdle.
For many the big one of the day is the Group 1 Coronation Stakes.
We get the chance to see what might be a monster in FALAKEYAH (4.20) and her draw (stall two) has worked in her favour.
Owen Burrows was considering the French Oaks after her demolition job in the Pretty Polly but also the Irish 1,000 Guineas.
I’m pretty sure she has the speed for this test.
She should be improving all the time as had only been to Wolverhampton prior to her Newmarket victory.
She looks an absolute tank. Jim Crowley takes the mount.
NEVER LET GO (5.00) is the one for me in the Sandringham.
A strong gallop will be ideal for her and she has plenty of experience for Ed Walker.
Many in this race are stepping up in trip, but Never Let Go drops in distance and looks sure to be suited by a proper gallop.
Kieran Shoemark would not usually want to get down to a weight of 8st10lbs every day but he might just be rewarded here for making the effort.
She’s up in the handicap for a Listed third when last seen but as a lightly-raced animal I’m not too fussed about that. An each-way wager.
Amiloc could easily win the King Edwards VII Stakes – also known as the Ascot Derby.
But ZAHRANN (5.35) might just be one of the best Johnny Murtagh has trained in his career.
The Aga Khan-owned colt and son of Night of Thunder was impressive in Listed company at Leopardstown last time and stayed this trip very well.
He was well backed and it looked as though the stable knew he’s classy. I’ll chance him each-way.
The day closes with JORGE ALVARES (6.10) in the Palace of Holyroodhouse Handicap.
A lot of very fast horses here and I suspect something will come flying through late.
He could be the one each-way for Colin Keane and Ger Lyons.
The gelding has plenty of experience and ran really well when last seen at Curragh staying on strongly having been close to the pace.
He’s up 1lb here but that shouldn’t make any difference and he’s raced up to seven furlongs so that bit of stamina could be useful.
Good luck one and all. Yeeehaaa!

THE dad of Chelsee Healey’s baby daughter has been jailed for his role in a “wholesale” drug-dealing operation.
Eddie Rainford, who shares daughter Cookie with the Hollyoaks star, supplied large quantities of cannabis with co-accused Jay Boyd.
InstagramEddie Rainford is the dad to Chelsee’s daughter Cookie[/caption]
STEVE ALLENChelsee had previously gone to court for the case[/caption]
The 32-year-old was today jailed for 24 months after he pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of a Class B drug between November 2022 and September 2023.
Chelsee had gone to Manchester Crown Court on Monday to watch Rainford’s sentencing but the case was adjourned.
Rainford’s plea came just days after Chelsee was eliminated from Dancing on Ice.
The Waterloo Road star had hinted that she was struggling following her exit from the hit ITV show.
She said: “There has been a lot going on with me that I have been struggling with.”
An insider also told The Sun the pair were no longer in a relationship.
The court heard how ex-Royal Marine commando Rainford and Boyd, 28, had “headed” an OCG (Organised Crime Gang) that dealt “multi-kilos” of cannabis.
Gwen Henshaw, prosecuting, described it as “boutique” operation that involved selling various varieties of the drug, including “Cali weed”, “Oreo Cookies” and “Orange Cake”.
Chelsee had kept Rainford’s identity a secret when they began dating in 2021.
His first name was revealed following Cookie’s birth in December 2023 when he was seen in the background of photos from their baby shower.
Chelsee, who has another daughter Coco, previously told how their relationship was the “most supportive” she had ever been in.
She added: “My friends and family love him, and he’s the first bloke I’ve introduced Coco to, which says a lot. I knew he was ‘The One’ within three to four months.
“I’ve kissed a few frogs, but he’s definitely marriage material.”
In April, Chelsee returned to her role of Goldie McQueen in Hollyoaks after taking an extended break.

FAMILIES of those killed and injured in the Creeslough tragedy have been refused an opportunity to speak during an appeal against an application to rebuild the petrol station at the centre of the tragedy.
It follows a decision by An Bord Pleanala to rule out a request for an oral hearing in the Co Donegal case.
The tragic victims’ families have slammed the rebuild plans on the siteAFP - Getty
The request was made to An Bord Pleanala by a number of objectors who were bereaved by the October 2022 tragedy.
Ten people died following a huge explosion at the service station in October, 2022.
The objectors include Aine Flanagan, who lost her partner Robert Garwe and five-year-old daughter Shauna Flanagan-Garwe, Shauna Gallagher, sister of the late Jessica Gallagher, Derek Martin, husband of the late Martina Martin, and Caroline Lauder and MarieLouise Macleod, sisters of the late Martin McGill.
The group, represented by human rights lawyers Phoenix Law, had argued that the level of national interest and the complexities of legal issues raised against the development warranted a full public hearing.
However, An Bord Pleanala has decided to proceed with a written determination for the appeal.
An Bord Pleanala contacted Donegal County Council to inform them of their decision.
The council then contacted members of the bereaved families informing them of the decision.
Donegal County Council said An Bord Pleanala has decided that an oral hearing is not necessary as the appeal can be adequately handled through written procedures.
Reacting to the decision, one bereaved family member said the voices of those left behind after the tragedy had once again been silenced.
The woman, who asked not to be named, said “This is a disgrace. We are not being given a chance to outline our concerns in a proper manner.
“Ten people have died and yet An Bord Pleanala do not think their lives or our hurt are important enough so we can be heard.”
In an update provided to Donegal County Council, the Board confirmed that the processing of the appeal will now continue, and the Donegal County Council Planning Department will be notified of the decision once it is made.
A number of families impacted by the tragedy have strongly objected to the building of a new business on the very site where their loved ones lost their lives.
In a separate appeal, objectors have argued that it is against public policy to rebuild a development where a mass tragedy has occurred.
They stated that inquests into the deaths of the ten victims have not yet occurred and that if the development proceeds, it will result in the destruction of crucial evidence.

If you’re jetting abroad soon, you’ll likely know that watching Love Island overseas can be tricky.
That’s because streaming ITVX outside the UK is blocked -luckily, there’s a simple (and legal) solution.
You can use a VPN, such as ExpressVPN or NordVPN, to stream ITV content from overseas.
Read on to learn how to use a VPN to access Love Island abroad.
How to watch Love Island 2025 abroad with a VPN
The whole process for watching Love Island 2025 while you’re outside the UK is actually pretty simple.
VPNs are online tools that can simulate a UK-based IP address, allowing you to bypass content restrictions.
Here’s what you need to do:
Download a VPN like ExpressVPN or NordVPN to whatever device you use to stream content.
Load the VPN app on that device, and select a UK server.
Head to ITVX, and search for Love Island. Play, sit back and enjoy!
ITVX is where you can catch up on episodes that are already live.
You can also use a VPN to watch Love Island live on ITV2, but remember: you need to have a TV license to watch any live UK television from overseas.
When does Love Island Series 12 2025 start?
It’s already started! Did you not get the memo?
Luckily, you haven’t missed much.
The latest series of Love Island kicked off on Monday 9th June at 9pm, so it’s barely been a week.
As ever, it’s available to watch on ITV2.
How many Love Islands will there be in 2025?
Unless there’s a surprise instalment later this year (unlikely), there will almost definitely be two seasons of Love Islands this year.
Back at the beginning of 2025, we had the All Stars edition of Love Island, bringing some sunny fun to the gloom of the New Year.
And now we’ve got the Series 12 Summer Edition to look forward to. Yay!
If we hear any more news about forthcoming series, we’ll keep you posted on this page.
Can you watch Love Island in the US?
We’re thrilled that Love Island has been a hit across the pond, and American fans can access this year’s season using a VPN, as outlined earlier in this article.
