Magical the right Royal Ascot favourite, but not the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes winner

Based on her most current five runs since disappointing in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, it's totally understandable as to why Magical is favorite to win the Prince Of Wales's Stakes.

Four success have been signed up in these 5 starts, with the only defeat being a perfectly acceptable 2nd to superstar filly Enable in the Breeders' Cup Turf, in which Magical went down by less than a size.

Aidan O'Brien's filly has been gone down in trip this term, with all runs moring than 1m2f and also all finishing in success. She's 2/1 to make it 4 on the bounce in the Prince Of Wales's Stakes.

However, Ryan Moore's place is not liked to win the sole Group 1 on the 2nd day of Royal Ascot.

Crystal Ocean to finish wait on a Group 1 success

The major deterrent to backing Magical is that she has mainly been beating the same horses this term, with stablemate Flag Of Honour the bridesmaid in all 3 races. This Royal Ascot encounter is far tougher.

Sea Of Class comes next off in the betting and also was perhaps the most effective of these as a three-year-old, based upon her limited defeat from an expected casket reel in the Arc.

The primary disadvantage to backing her is that it's unlikely she's been educated to come to a head in this race, with the Arc her concern target once more.

A line is likewise drawn through Waldgeist on account of him never ever winning beyond France, leaving Crystal Ocean as the horse to back at 4/1.

Sir Michael Stoute's five-year-old has been the version of group-level uniformity over the last two years, never finishing out of the initial 3 over various ranges as well as on numerous sorts of ground.

Surprisingly, this consists of runner-up coatings on all 3 begins at Group 1 degree, when going after home Capri, Poet's Word as well as Cracksman.

Crystal Ocean's preparations have been solid this year, with a comfortable pair of Group 3 triumphes. This is a similar prep to when winning Royal Ascot's Hardwicke Stakes in 2015.

Stoute recognizes what it requires to win this race as well, having saddled Poet's Word to victory 12 months ago.

Providing 3lb to Magical is not suitable, yet with Frankie Dettori booked in the saddle for the very first time, Crystal Ocean looks a far better bet than the much-loved at twice the cost.
