Coral Racing Ambassador, David Probert, previews his two rides on the final day of Royal Ascot, including Chilly Breeze in the Chesham Stakes.

14:30 Chesham Stakes – Chilly Breeze


He won last time out at Nottingham over the minimum trip of 5f. This is a step up to 7f for him. His dam is half-sister to Holloway Bay who won this race in 2022.

There are a lot of unexposed two-year-olds in this field, as you would expect in a Chesham. David Evans’ horses are in good form at the moment, so I have every reason to be excited about this ride.

17:05 Wokingham Stakes – Ferrous

This horse has been in good form on the all-weather earlier this year. He is held in high regard at Jack Channon’s yard. They think he could be a group horse in a handicap, so I hope he can show that in the Wokingham.

We have been drawn in stall 18. The high draw has been holding up well across the week. He will have a big chance if he gets the run of the race.
