Ascot Race 6 - King Edward Vii Stakes (Group 2)
CAUSEWAY (2) Was fighting out the finish when winning last start at Curragh and showing great potential in all races to date. Flying this preparation with 3 wins from 3 starts. Better hope. WATER TO WINE (6) Bolted in when winning by a margin of 11L last time at Kempton but up against a higher level of opposition. Is in good order and can run well. GOLDEN STORY (4) Got the upper hand late when winning last time at Goodwood and putting a tidy record together. Displays good tactical speed. Can save some energy from the draw. Include in chances. ECHO OF STARS (3) Was first to greet the judge when winning by 2 1/4L last time at Chepstow but up against stronger competition. Trainer has gone for the tongue tie on, take note. Not out of this.

Jumped at $29.00 and came in 8th last start at Epsom but has a good draw. Has shown early pace in races to date. Good career start. Will be tested.

Fought on gamely when winning last start at Curragh and top record so far. Unbeaten this preparation with 3 wins from as many runs. Should give plenty of sight.

Solid win by 2 1/4L last time at Chepstow but competing in a higher grade. Trainer has gone for the tongue tie on, take note. Will be motoring home late. Represents value at a price.

Got the upper hand late when winning by a nose last time at Goodwood and promising career start. Likely to be well placed early. Drawn the rails. Strong claims in this.

Claimed a tight victory last time at Milano. Winkers on could be an important change. In good racing form since resuming from a break. Very unlikely to shake these.

Was strong to the line when winning by a margin of 11L last time at Kempton but up in grade. Holds a major chance.
