2023 Queen Mary Stakes Tips
The 2023 Queen Mary Stakes is another fast-run race on Day One of the 2023 Royal Ascot meeting, with some of the best two-year-old fillies from around the world competing. The latest betting suggests that there could be any number of winners of this encounter, with Born To Rock installed as favourite although it’s hard to infer too much.
After all, the filly has only enjoyed one run to date, landing the spoils in a Fillies’ Stakes at Yarmouth where she was able to claim a victory by over four lengths. Perhaps we will get another strong showing here, although Ocean Mermaid looks an interesting runner and the American raider has the potential star quality to win.
Any horse brought over by Wesley Ward has to stand a chance, with the runner sent off as the 4/5 favourite in the Royal Palm Juvenile Fillies Stakes. On that occasion, it was Crimson Advocate who was able to oblige over five furlongs. This is another American raider who could be set to line up in the Queen Mary Stakes.
Navassa Island is trading at a similar price and the horse was able to run well at Naas in her only outing when narrowly being beaten over six furlongs. Classic Flower also has to be respected and the P Cottier-trained runner has turned in a couple of promising victories in France to take her place as a solid contender at Royal Ascot.
2022 Queen Mary Stakes Tips
If Love Reigns falls short in this 2022 Royal Ascot encounter, then perhaps we will see Dramatised land a victory in this race and there’s plenty to recommend this mare. As with Love Reigns, there has only been one performance to judge the horse and that took place at Newmarket where a comfortable victory was achieved.
The K R Burke-trained runner managed to land the spoils in the My Odds Boost On Betfair British EBF Maiden Fillies' Stakes where Dramatised was able to power home by four lengths as the 9/4 betting favourite.
