Friday 31 July 2026 · Goodwood · By Matthew Glazier · Last updated

Highfield Princess, Big Evs and Jm Jungle are some of the recent winners of the King George Stakes, with the latest contenders now readying themselves for the five furlong showdown. Night Raider started the season well with a couple of victories although the horse fell short in a recent outing. Perhaps Rumstar represents better value as an alternative at a similar price.

Jakajaro began the season with a win and followed it with another victory but hasn’t been able to score in the previous two outings. At a slightly bigger price, Rosy Affair is trained by George Boughey and a victory has been achieved this term. There’s then a jump in the odds before you find Spicy Marg and American Affair featuring in the market.

King George Qatar Stakes Betting Tips

Rumstar is the horse that we feel is the best value for the King George Qatar Stakes. Jonathan Portman’s charge is a six-year-old who appears to be finding top form at this stage of his career. There was a second-placed effort at Newmarket in early May in the Palace House Stakes when missing out by half a length.

Following on from this, the horse produced an underwhelming effort to finish way off the pace at Royal Ascot. In the King Charles III Stakes, the 25/1 shot really struggled to live with a fierce pace although there was a return to form in the following race. The five furlong Sandown victory was enable in early July in the Group 3 Coral Charge.
