Today's tips: The Gurkha can triumph in battle of Guineas winners at Royal Ascot
Frankel, whose stallion career has begun in such scintillating fashion, is on the illustrious role of honour and, while there isn’t such a star in today’s line-up, this renewal looks well up to scratch.
The last Irish winner of the race was Declaration Of War, in 2013, and the Ger Lyons-trained Endless Drama can bridge that short gap this afternoon. The imposing colt has had limited opportunities on the track but is tremendously talented, as he showed when runner-up to Gleneagles in last season’s Irish 2000 Guineas, and again when a close third behind one of today’s rivals, Belardo, in the Lockinge Stakes on his first start of this season.
