The Ayr Gold Cup, scheduled for 3.35 at Ayr, is shaping up to be an exciting race this year. With a host of contenders vying for the coveted title, here's a rundown of some key horses and predictions.

Purosangue, known for its impressive performances on soft ground, will be ridden by Oisin Murphy in the Ayr Gold Cup. The last horse to achieve a similar double was Coastal Bluff in 1996, and Purosangue's record on soft ground, which includes a second place in the Molecomb and Coral Charge, suggests it could be a strong contender. However, John Hunt warns that Purosangue might not perform well on quicker ground.

Another horse to watch out for is Fahrenheit Seven, which has been prepared specifically for this race and is less exposed than others. Jamie McBride predicts Fahrenheit Seven as a token selection in the Ayr Gold Cup race. Two Tribes, a horse that previously won the Stewards' Cup, is now aiming to complete a rare double with the Ayr Gold Cup. James Hill predicts Two Tribes to win the Ayr Gold Cup.

The winner of the Ayr Gold Cup is yet to be confirmed, but Bingareer, a notable contender with good recent performances including a third place at Ascot, has been mentioned in the race discussions.
