2026 Queen Alexandra Stakes Betting Odds at Ascot racecourse

Saturday, 20 June 2026

Sober could be the best betting option when it comes to the Queen Alexandra Stakes. The six-year-old returns to the track after nearly a year away from the track, with the bookies expecting this horse to be the one to beat. However, each-way punters might be more interested in Wild Waves and Samui and there are likely to be extra places for this encounter.

There are eleven runners currently set to go to post, with Dallas Star having produced some smart performances this season. Tashkan is an older adversary who has a high official rating, with Trooper Bisdee available at a similar price. Look out for price boosts when it comes to this long distance race which is the last encounter of the Royal Ascot meeting.

2025 Queen Alexandra Stakes Betting Tips

Sober was a winner at Killarney in May and Willie Mullins will now be hoping for his horse to build on this success to win this Saturday race at the Royal Ascot meeting. It was hardly a surprise that the charge was able to oblige as the 4/11 favourite, with that coming after some smart efforts in France last year.

At Clairefontaine in August, the horse was able to score as the 11/10 favourite in the Prix Festival Manga, with Wild Waves a potential each-way alternative. The four-year-old was last seen finishing last in a race in France and that came after a lowly placing at Newmarket, with the horse having failed to make an impression thus far.

Samui is a six-year-old who looks set to make a quick return to the Ascot track after previously running well in the Copper Horse Stakes. Over one mile and six furlongs, the runner was only three lengths off the pace and it was a fine effort from the 20/1 chance. The horse previously featured at Down Royal and Punchestown.

Dallas Star is trained by Adrian Murray, with the horse finishing third out of eight runners at Down Royal. It was a decent effort over two miles at the Irish track and that came after a brilliant effort at Leopardstown. That was in a Group 3 encounter over one mile and six furlongs, with only a length and a half separating him from Kyprios.
