Formscan - OMBUDSMAN was super impressive when winning this race 12 months ago (See The Fire back in third) and returns in good nick having won the Dubai Turf at Meydan and the Brigadier Gerard at Sandown this season. He is the highest-rated horse in the race and was a place ahead of Tattersalls Gold Cup winner Almaqam when runner-up to Calandagan in the Champion Stakes here last autumn. John & Thady Gosden's charge has never finished outside the first two, winning eight of his 11 career starts, and it's going to take a big performance to deny him another Royal Ascot success. French raider Daryz is the obvious threat because he beat Minnie Hauk in last year's Arc and has returned in good form this year, winning the Prix Ganay and Prix Aga Khan IV on home soil.
