'I could see him taking his form to a different level back at this trip'
Top tipster Tom Segal is next into the hotseat for our Royal Ascot countdown

What’s your best bet of the meeting?
I'm a big fan of Topgear. No not Clarkson and his pals on that intensely annoying car show but Christopher Head's rapidly improving son of Wootton Bassett. There weren't many more impressive winners than him when he danced home over 7f at Newmarket last season and I can't see him having any problems with the drop back to 6f in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes.
The Queen Anne looks a cracker – where’s your money going?
Given his record at Ascot, I fully expect Rosallion to come out on top from those horses that ran in the Lockinge. However, his form from last season hasn't worked out that well and there is a big interloper in the line up in the shape of Lake Forest. He's been crying out for the step up to a mile and I expect him to serve it up to the proven milers.
Can anything beat Field Of Gold in the St James’s Palace?
No.
