Sky Sports Racing ambassador backs Japanese colt on Saturday's feature as Ascot and York host key weekend races
Hollie Doyle, a Sky Sports Racing ambassador, believes Masquerade Ball can deliver a landmark Japanese success in the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes at 3.35pm Saturday at Ascot. The article was published Friday 24 July 2026.
Japanese colt targets Ascot glory
Takahisa Tezuka trains Masquerade Ball, a colt who lost to Calandagan in the Japan Cup last November. He later finished second to Hong Kong's Romantic Warrior in the QEII Cup, while Romantic Warrior also won the Sheema Classic and Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud.
Aidan O'Brien's Irish Derby winner Benvenuto Cellini receives weight from the leaders. Doyle indicates Masquerade Ball has unfinished business and can give Japan one of its most momentous successes, provided the uphill finish does not catch him out.
Fillies and handicaps across Ascot card
Andrew Balding's Moonrise, a daughter of Churchill, was third in the Windsor Castle Stakes at the Royal Meeting. Richard Hannon's Dark Issue was fourth in the Group 3 Albany Stakes, where runner-up Sun Goddess later won a Group 2 in Ireland for Aidan O'Brien.
Jane Chapple-Hyam's unbeaten filly KON TIKI won the Duke Of Cambridge and chases Blue Bolt again this year; Ryan Moore rides her in the Valiant. Tom Marquand, Doyle's husband, trains unbeaten Extremely Zain, who won the International Handicap under Cieren Fallon with an 8lb rise.
York feature and Doyle recovery
The Sky Bet York Stakes has five runners headed by Karl Burke's eight-year-old Royal Champion, who won the Neom Turf Cup and was fourth behind Romantic Warrior and Masquerade Ball in Hong Kong. Dante winner Item won the Epsom Derby but must improve.
Doyle, recovering from a broken left leg since a May fall at Bath, began weight bearing last week and rehab at Oaksey House in Lambourn five days weekly. She confirmed progress but noted the road back remains long after the injury sustained in May.
