2025 Bahrain Trophy Betting Odds at Newmarket racecourse

Thursday, 10 July 2025

The Bahrain Trophy Stakes looks to be a classic renewal at Newmarket this week. This is a Group 3 encounter over one mile and five furlongs, with Furthur having won on a seasonal debut and the horse was second last time out. Some might prefer the chances of Galveston who was in the winners’ enclosure on a second run this term.

Hallelujah U has run four time this season and stands a reasonable chance of success, with Nightime Dancer trading at a similar price. Scandinavia also has a win to his name this season and there’s even a chance that outsider Titanium Emperor could be in the final shake-up after some encouraging performances thus far.

There are six runners going to post for the Bahrain Trophy Stakes. Furthur produced a quality effort at Royal Ascot in a previous showing and could go one better here. The 20/1 shot was excellent in the Queen’s Vase and only missed out on victory by half a length, with that coming after a fifth placed finish out of eight horses in the Chester Vase Stakes.

Galveston runs for Aidan O’Brien and finished third in a Royal Ascot encounter, with that being a great effort considering the horse was sent off at 20/1. In the King Edward VII Stakes, the horse was found wanting in the final exchanges of the race, although the bookies think he’s a very lively contender in the Bahrain Trophy Stakes.

Hallelujah U has run four times this term, with trainer James Owen seeing his charge finish sixth out of thirteen runners in the Queen’s Vase. It was a solid effort considering that the horse was sent off at odds of 80/1. That came after a victory at Thirsk, with the charge having the advantage of two previous runs at Newmarket.

Nightime Dancer goes for Richard Hannon and is also trading at single figure odds, with the horse winning on the all-weather on his seasonal debut. That came before a third-placed finish at Lingfield before taking his chances in the Derby. An eighth-placed finish was pretty impressive considering that the runner’s starting price was a 100/1 shot.

The July meeting at Newmarket kicks off with the Bahrain Trophy Stakes, with six runners and riders set to battle it out over one mile and five furlongs. Ancient Wisdom was eighth in the Epsom Derby although the Charlie Appleby-trained runner could be set to land a victory in this encounter, having run well on his seasonal debut.

Space Legend could also be a strong contender and this horse hasn’t been out of the first two in his three outings to date, with William Haggas saddling a runner who will have James Doyle on board, with the latest showing being a runner-up spot when running at Royal Ascot in a big field.

Portland has run four times this season and has been in the winners’ enclosure, with Aidan O’Brien training a horse who last ran in the Hampton Court Stakes at Royal Ascot, although further improvement is needed after previously running well enough to secure a victory at Leopardstown against four other runners.

Royal Supremacy has the potential to go well for trainer Andrew Balding, with Oisin Murphy on board a runner who has been in the frame on each occasion that he’s run this term. Kinesiology has landed a victory this season and we can’t rule out the outsider Gasper De Lemos who is another O’Brien-trained charge.

It’s going to be hot race when it comes to the 1.50pm at Newmarket Racecourse on Thursday 13 July, with Saint George looking like the one to beat and the Andrew Balding-trained charge was last seen turning out at Royal Ascot. In the Queen’s Vase, the horse was only beaten into second place by even money favourite Gregory.

Previously to this, there was a victory at Doncaster in a handicap race over one mile, six and a half furlongs, with Cieren Fallon on board a runner who could set the benchmark for the other runners. Castle Way runs in this race and was successful at this very track when obliging in the Newmarket Stakes over one mile and two furlongs.

Charlie Appleby will now expect more from a runner who was also successful at Newmarket last October, with the horse obliging in a Nursery Handicap over one mile and two furlongs. However, Tower Of London has passed a couple of assignments when claiming a victory at Leopardstown before slamming home another victory at Down Royal.

The three-year-old will now come across from Ireland to compete, with the latest success coming in the Ulster Derby over one mile and five furlongs. It was a convincing win by over four lengths, with the horse previously obliging in the King George V Cup at Leopardstown over one mile and four furlongs.
