News
The sequel to a thrilling 1,000 Guineas is all set for Royal Ascot later this month after Dermot Weld reported Tahiyra to be heading for a rematch with Mawj in the Coronation Stakes.
A scintillating gallop on Wednesday morning from last year's Derby winner Desert Crown has resulted in bookmakers running for cover from what they described as "the start of a significant Royal Ascot gamble", slashing his price for the Prince of Wales's Stakes. A best-priced 6-1 before the gallop, the Sir Michael Stoute-trained four-year-old is now as short as 3-1 for a potential blockbuster clash with Ballydoyle star Luxembourg and fellow Derby winner Adayar.
