Longines Valiant Stakes (Group 3) (Fillies & Mares)

Ascot · 14:20 · Saturday, 25 July 2026 · 7f213y · Good To Firm · Class 1

🤖 AI race preview

The race is likely to be contested under a steady tempo with Kon Tiki emerging as the most consistent threat, having shown strong headway and positioning in recent runs, including a second in the Duke of Cambridge over good to firm ground and a fourth in the Ascot Cl1 where he took keen hold and pressed the pace. His RPR of 115, combined with a solid draw of 2 and recent form on improving ground, makes him the horse to beat, particularly given his ability to challenge from the rear and maintain pressure over the final furlong. The main dangers come from Touleen, who showed improved form in the Coronation and has a strong RPR of 123, and Sukanya, who surged to win the Fred Darling at Newbury and has a sharp headway record in recent starts. Arisaig, despite a recent losing run, remains a notable each-way player at the price due to her hold-up style and recent performances, while Cheshire Dancer, though not in top form, offers a value at the forecast price given her prior win in this race on good ground.
