Ascot Prince of Wales Tip

The Ascot Prince of Wales tip is Lockinge Stakes runner-up Phoenix Tower. This Henry Cecil trained 4 year old is a four time winner and has already proven himself over 9 furlongs when winning the Earl of Sefton Stakes on his seasonal reappearance. His second place to Creachadore in the Lockinge last month, confirmed his class, it was an excellent follow up run and he will come on plenty more for in time for Ascot. He will certainly get the ten furlongs in this Group One. His odds of 9/2 are worth taking as it is likely that the odds about current race favourite, Duke of Marmalade may shorten to even less that the skinny 6/4 being offered at present. Aiden O’Brien who trains Duke of Marmalade has to be respected of course, but at the odds offered we would rather look at Phoenix Tower.

Jockey Ted Durcan said that “Phoenix Tower is an exciting prospect as he has plenty of speed for the mile and is bred to stay further”. The horse has pleased the Trainer and connections at home, he is highly thought of and all are very optimistic of a big run.

Odds are 6/4 Duke of Marmalade, 9/2 Phoenix Tower, 6/1 Pressing, 8/1 Ask, 10/1 Sixties Icon, 10/1 Pipedreamer.
