Spotlight Lucky 15: four horses to back on Saturday

The best four Spotlight tips to include in a Lucky 15 bet today . . .

Al Nayyir 1.20 Ascot
Has spent most of his career in Dubai, with a chunk in France (won twice on soft) as well last year, and he was smart in both; has carried on the good work on both starts for new yard, finishing strongly when short-headed in York Group 2 (2m, good) and hacking up in Listed race at Newmarket (2m, soft); an exciting recruit to the British staying scene.

Kind Of Blue 1.55 Ascot
Related to Deacon Blues and The Tin Man, who won this event for James Fanshawe in 2011 and 2016; has made giant strides since his debut in April, and a head second of 16 to Montassib in the Haydock Sprint Cup six weeks ago was another personal best; soft ground would be an unknown but those relatives handled it well; still unexposed and he looks a Group 1 winner waiting to happen.

Charyn 3.15 Ascot
Won with something to spare in the Queen Anne over C&D (good to firm) in June and did likewise in another Group 1 at Deauville in August (1m, good; Prix Jacques le Marois); runner-up in Group 1 Prix du Moulin at Longchamp (1m, soft) last month behind one given an enterprising ride; leading claims.

Calandagan 3.55 Ascot
French gelding who goes from strength to strength; has posted excellent performances (on good to firm ground) in Britain the last twice, winning the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m4f) in tremendous style then proving the only serious threat to City Of Troy (pair clear) in the International at York where he recorded impressive sectional times dropped back to 1m2f; won on heavy in May; top on ratings.
