Prince of Wales’s Stakes racing tip: Red-hot Ryan Moore to add to Royal Ascot tally on Luxembourg
Ryan Moore reaches 75-winner milestone at Royal Ascot
The richest race of day two at Royal Ascot has attracted the smallest field, but those six runners are chock full of 10-furlong specialists that should give us a high-quality race.
16:20 Prince of Wales's Stakes (Group 1) (1 mile 2 furlongs)
The Prince of Wales' Stakes was rebooted in 1968 when the title was bestowed upon current King Charles, and the race usually attracts a limited high-class field.
Bay Bridge lines up again here as one of the early market leaders, and it is no doubt significant that he is piloted today by Richard Kingscote, with last year's jockey Ryan Moore switching to his regular ride on board the early favourite Luxembourg.
This classy colt landed wins five in his first seven outings in 2021 and 2022, with his only blemishes coming in last year's 2000 Guineas (third of 15) and the Arc de Triomphe (seventh of 20).
There's been some interest from Tipstrr's each-way specialists for the two outsiders, but it's hard to see the first two spots being occupied by any other horses but a victorious Luxembourg, with Bay Bridge, Adayar and My Prospero contesting the minor placings.
Suggested bet: Luxembourg in the 16:20 at Royal Ascot
