The Punt Daily: best bets from Tom Collins on day four of Royal Ascot

EACH-WAY PLAY

Raymond Tusk(5.35 Royal Ascot)

This Alan King-trained six-year-old hasn't won since December 2019 but spent much of his early career competing at Group 1 and 2 level and found life tough. He never got his ground last year (two runs on soft and heavy, three all-weather starts) and returned to form in three starts this year on good turf. His recent runner-up effort to Ebor fancy Ilaraab reads well in the context of this race and providing he isn't too far back in the early stages, Raymond Tusk can play a big part at a double-figure price.

DARK HORSE

Snow Lantern(4.20 Royal Ascot)

Michael Seely Stakes form looks pretty strong and although the improving Primo Bacio may well confirm the form with Snow Lantern, the latter has been forgotten about in the market and has to be the bet. This brilliantly-bred filly was extremely impressive on her seasonal reappearance when she fended off subsequent winner Derab and just pulled her chance away at York. The daughter of Frankel is still on a sharp upward curve after just three runs, should relish the ground conditions and will be better suited to a faster-run race.
