Fri 17th Jul

Formscan  - SOCIAL SYMBOL made a winning debut at Ripon and then outran odds of 33/1 to be beaten four lengths into fourth in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot. That form is the strongest on offer and Ryan Moore gets the ride, so he's got plenty going for him. Nabati also won on debut at Yarmouth and could be anything for leading connections, while A Bear Affair will be out to put his experience to good use.
