Queen Alexandra Stakes (Conditions Race)
Dawn Rising won this last year for Joseph O'Brien and is back for more, but he has raced five times since without success. Ryan Moore was aboard the son of Galileo 12 months ago but switches to QUEENSTOWN for Aidan O'Brien and, if the younger gelding stays the trip, his one-length second to Kyprios at Leopardstown last month gives him the edge at these weights with every chance there is more to come. Uxmal has to be taken seriously, as does Fasol, a rare runner on the Flat for top NH trainer Paul Nicholls.

Queen Alexandra Stakes Overview
First established in 1864, this epic Royal Ascot race brings the festival to a close on the fifth and final day of racing. It is named after Alexandra of Denmark, the Queen and wife of King Edward VII between 1901 and 1910. It was first given the name of the Alexandra Plate before being renamed the Alexandra Stakes and then its current guise of Queen Alexandra Stakes in 1931.
One of the quirky aspects of the Queen Alexandra Stakes is that it can sometimes see runners who have already run at Royal Ascot earlier in the week in the Ascot Stakes. The last horse to prevail as winner in both the Ascot Stakes and the Queen Alexandra Stakes was Simenon in 2012.
Brown Jack (1929, 1930, 1931, 1932, 1933, and 1934) is the most successful horse in the history of the race with 6 wins to their name. Ryan Moore is the leading jockey with 5 wins including riding last year’s winner Dawn Rising. The leading trainer is shared between Dick Hern and Willie Mullins with 4 wins each.
