King Edward VII Stakes betting

Fill up your fizz and head to the William Hill online pavilion for King Edward VII Stakes betting aplenty when classic generation stayers lock horns at Royal Ascot.

The race acquired its current moniker in memory of King Edward VII in 1926, having been established 92 years earlier - originally as the Ascot Derby - and is now contested on the fourth day of the Royal meeting.

In the early part of its history, the King Edward VII Stakes was also open to fillies, but has since been restricted to three-year-old colts and geldings, and is run over just shy of the Derby distance at 1m3f and 211 yards.

Currently held a fortnight or so after its Epsom equivalent, the King Edward VII Stakes features high-level horses from the top yards, often coming out of the Derby and in need of a Royal Ascot boost.

It all adds up to a hugely-competitive Group Two, with bags of value in William Hill’s King Edward VII Stakes betting markets, judging by recent trends.

King Edward VII Stakes betting - trainers to watch

A few more years at the head of Freemasons Lodge stables may yet see Sir Michael Stoute, already the top trainer in Royal Ascot history, catch up with John Porter’s King Edward VII Stakes-leading tally of nine victories.

Stoute was first victorious in this valuable Group Two with Shareef Dancer all the way back in 1983, and six King Edward VII Stakes triumphs since make the Barbados-born Brit the race’s most successful trainer for over a century.

His most recent King Edward VII winners, Across the Stars and Hillstar in 2016 and 2013, returned starting prices outside the top two in the betting, while Stoute favourites Crystal Ocean and Stravagante in 2017 and 2015 failed to justify such support.

Mark Johnston, who has trained more winners on the flat in Britain than anyone else, has a few precious King Edward VII Stakes winners’ medals in his vast trophy cabinet.

John Gosden claimed the King Edward VII Stakes laurels in 2005, 2011 and 2014, and after saddling runners-up twice since his last success, the Sussex maestro is certainly due another win.

Given the Derby-esque nature of this race, Aidan O’Brien’s three-year-olds have fared surprisingly poorly over the years, with the Ballydoyle maestro taking the King Edward VII Stakes just twice, though he was victorious last year with Japan.

King Edward VII Stakes betting - jockeys to watch

William Buick’s remarkable success in this Group Two has made the Norwegian solid gold for King Edward VII Stakes punters.

Following on from victories aboard Gosden pair Nathaniel and Eagle Top in 2011 and 2014, Buick stormed the King Edward VII Stakes winning post two years on the bounce in 2017 and 2018, first with Permian for Sir Michael Stoute, then Old Persian for Charlie Appleby.

Buick already has as many King Edward VII Stakes victories as Frankie Dettori, with no other current jockey coming close to the pair’s four triumphs apiece.

Dettori is another to have benefitted from Stoute’s Royal Ascot expertise, with the Italian’s most recent King Edward VII Stakes win coming aboard the veteran’s Across the Stars in 2016.

King Edward VII Stakes betting trends to follow

Favouritism has not worked out too well in recent King Edward VII Stakes betting markets, with Nathaniel in 2011 and Japan 12 months ago the only two to claim the spoils in recent years.

That being said, most winners of late have come from the top three in the King Edward VII Stakes betting, with the vast majority returning single-figure SPs.

Packing in at least two runs during the campaign before hitting Berkshire is generally required of a King Edward VII Stakes victor and winning one or more of those previous races is a plus, going by the trends.

Only half of recent winners had a run over 1m3f and 211 yards or further prior to Royal Ascot, with around a third of those managing victory over the trip, suggesting such experience isn’t necessarily a positive.
