Royal Ascot King Edward VII Stakes - Nathaniel Takes The Win
The King Edward V11 stakes is a group 2 over the derby distance and it tends to throw up some of the contenders of that great race to try their luck in a slightly lesser grade. The Royal Ascot Odds on the King Edward V11 stakes is a race the punters have some good form guides to assist in picking the winner. All the best Ascot Free Bets are available through this site.
The Kind Edward is looking particularly hot this year with a number of eye catching runners going to post, and perhaps the one to beat is World Domination who should take his chance for Henry Cecil. He was considered a Derby contender until he was below par in the Dante but will go close if he is at his best today. Another one to watch is Nathaniel who ran well at Chester last month and is likely to go off favourite for John Gosden.

This strong renewal can go to NATHANIEL, who gave subsequent Derby second Treasure Beach a fight in the Chester Vase despite seeming ill at ease on that track. Mijhaar could not have been more impressive at Haydock and is feared most.
