2026 King Charles III Stakes Betting Tips

Let's start with Night Raider who was found wanting at Longchamp back in October. A lowly finish in the Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp Longines was underwhelming although there were two victories in May and the first of these came at Newmarket. A half-length success in the Palace House Stakes was achieved at odds of 9/1.

Better was to come in the William Hill Temple Stakes at Haydock Park. Sent off as the 3/1 favourite in this Group 2 showdown, there was lots to like about the way that the horse travelled over five furlongs. However, much depends on the strength of the Australian runners who have caused a stir with their arrival in the United Kingdom.

Overpass has been a big talking horse for the race, with Bjorn Baker training a seven-year-old who last ran at Randwick in early April. That was a fourth-placed finish in the T J Smith Stakes, with that coming after a third-placed effort at Ascot in Australia, with that run being performed in The Gold Rush over seven furlongs on good ground.

It's a surprise that Joliestar is trading at a much bigger price, with the Chris Waller-trained runner having won that T J Smith Stakes as the 29/10 favourite and that came after winning at Randwick in early March. Indeed, it's been a hat-trick of successes at this Australian course after previously running well at Flemington.
