Formscan - REGARDE scored quite comfortably in the end at Kempton and the stiff nature of Ascot should play to his strengths as he attempts to notch up a fourth win over fences. A 6lb rise could prove lenient and he is preferred to Regatta De Blanc, who will appreciate a return to the larger obstacles having let down odds-on backers on her Chepstow reappearance. Of the others, keep a close eye on Law Of Supply, who won well at Worcester.
