Some plaudits have likened the Workforce Epsom Derby victory as the best seen since Shergar won in 1981, which if so makes this latest King George Vl & Queen Elizabeth Stakes renewal at Ascot an absolutely certainty for the Sir Michael Stoute trained colt. The Bookmakers are certainly not handing out carrots in the antepost betting market, where the best odds available are Evens with Bet365 with next best in the betting being Harbinger, also trained by Sir Michael at 5/2.
King George Vl and Queen Elizabeth Stakes Odds Comparison
Sadly the race which is carrying over £1m in prize money has only attracted eight runners, but it has to be said it is the highest quality renewal for some years. Chief threat to Sir Michael comes from Cape Blanco, trained by Aidan O’Brien and winner of the Irish Derby. Cape Blanco holds the distinction of defeating Workforce, which he did in the Dante Stakes at York in May, but whether that from counts for anything 3 months later is doubtful. Nonetheless Cape Blanco, who will be ridden by Colm O’Donoghue in place of the suspended Johnny Murtagh, does have extremely good value odds of 6/1 also from Bet365
there has been plenty of hype concerning the chances of the Mick Channon trained, Youmzain, who has been placed in this race twice in the past as well as finishing second three times in the Arc de Triomphe. Bookmakers have been reporting plenty of money for the 7 year old but we believe if this cracking horse was ever going to win this race, he would have done so already. Therefore the 14/1 on offer from Bet365 Online we think is best left alone, unless it is taken up for each way purposes only.

Of the two fillies in the field, Daryakana and Dar Re Mi, we believe that they are also best left alone. Daryakana certainly has something to find with Youmzain, while Dar Re Mi was well beaten in the Eclipse Stakes and looked past her best.
Sir Michael saddled the first three home in this race last season and we believe he might well saddle the first two this time around. We go for Workforce to win, with Harbinger next and Cape Blanco to finish in third.
Evens Workforce
5/2 Harbinger
6/1 Cape Blanco
14/1 Youmzain
16/1 Dar Re Mi
16/1 Daryakana
200/1 Confront
