On its penultimate day, we’ve selected a pricey banker at Royal Ascot ahead of its Friday card.

Chasing a sixth win in a row, the iron is clearly roasting hot for Adrian Nicholls’s Mo Celita who is now off a mark of 90.

She’s been pretty destructive in most of her wins of late, however, particularly at Haydock Park last time out and Oisin Murphy is a very positive booking to the saddle now.

A step back to the five-furlong trip doesn’t look an immediate negative, as the daughter of Camacho has won her only start over this trip by seven lengths.

Winning every race for her handler since her switch from Ireland, it’s folly to overlook her chances here and she presents plenty of value in the Friday finale.
