Ten go to post for this intriguing Group 1 1M 2F Prince OF Wales’s Stakes, the feature race of day two. With the eleventh hour defection of White Birch due to an unsatisfactory blood test this may turn out to be a straight shoot out between Aidan O’Brien’s Auguste Rodin and the Gosden’s Inspiral, who was re-routed here at the last minute from the 2F shorter Queen Anne Stakes. Preference is for the former who on his day is one of the best around having secured victory last season in the Derby, Irish Derby and Irish Champion Stakes alongside below par efforts in the 2000 Guineas and the King George V & Queen Elizabeth Stakes II Stakes at here. He’ll no doubt be better for a recent second to White Birch at The Curragh and although he is prone to throwing a bad run for some reason may out stay Inspiral who’s been working very well but may just struggle to get to the Ryan Moore pick. Owen Burrows Alflaila has won first time out the last three seasons and can fill third place.

Six-time Group 1 winner Inspiral took the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf over this trip and she now has another crack at it after her below-par fourth in the Lockinge at Newbury last month. The daughter of Frankel boasts leading credentials, but Kieran Shoemark will have to navigate a path from a tricky draw in stall 10. With that in mind, the vote goes to AUGUSTE RODIN. Aidan O'Brien's colt had a good prep run for this contest when filling the runner-up spot in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh last time and he took the Irish Champion Stakes over this distance in September last year. The 2023 dual Derby hero has proven his versatility in regards to distance at the top level and he could prove very hard to beat. Royal Rhyme took the Brigadier Gerard in preparation for a tilt at this prestigious prize and he may run better than his odds suggest.

Prince of Wales’s Stakes Overview

The Prince of Wales’s Stakes is a flat race, run annually at Ascot Racecourse as part of Royal Ascot, on day two. It is a Group 1 race run over a distance of 1 mile, 1 furlong, and 212 yards.

First staged in 1862 and named after the Prince of Wales, later to be King Edward VII, this race, open to 3-year-olds (and later 4-year-olds and older) horses was temporarily halted in 1940 due to the outbreak of World War II. The lack of a ‘Prince of Wales’ title prevented the event from returning until 1968, the year before the investiture of Prince of Charles.

The race has been won by three horses twice: Connaught (1969 and 1970), Mtoto (1987 and 1988) and Muhtarram (1994 and 1995). The most successful jockey in the race’s history is Morny Cannon, who won it a record six times between 1895 and 1905.
