Thursday 8 July 2027 · Newmarket · By Matthew Glazier · Last updated

There are eleven runners set to line up in the Kingdom of Bahrain July Stakes and over half of the field are trading at single figure betting odds. There are lots of lively chances and Abraham Lincoln might be the horse that goes off as favourite. There was a smart win at the Curragh last time out and we’re expecting another bold run.

However, Inner City Blues also looks like a class act and the Charlie Appleby-trained runner was able to secure the spoils at York in the middle of June. There could be more to come after that two-length success, although there are horses with more experience. Adaay Of Scarlett has two runner-up spots that came after opening the campaign with two wins.

Kingdom of Bahrain July Stakes Betting Tips

Inner City Blues is operating as one of the favourites for the Kingdom of Bahrain July Stakes, with the horse making a debut at York which was a winning one. There was a two length success for the two-year-old at the Knavesmire, with the 4/9 favourite obliging in a maiden stakes encounter. Although the horse ran green, there was a demonstration of raw speed to get the job done.

Abraham Lincoln could be the horse to give Aidan O’Brien his latest July Meeting winner, with the runner obliging at the Curragh on his debut. The 11/8 favourite was in touch with the leaders and then ran on well, with Ryan Moore once again likely to be on board a horse who was previously able to secure the spoils over six furlongs on good ground.

Adaay Of Scarlett is altogether more experienced and this will be a fifth outing for a horse that opened with two victories. There was an April success at Newmarket before winning at Ascot in early May. Then came a Sandown showdown at the end of May, with the horse just half a length off the pace in a listed race. Then came a brilliant effort in the Coventry Stakes where a runner-up spot was secured at odds of 40/1.

King Of Cloughan ended up with a victory last time out after beginning with fourth place before finishing as a runner-up. The latest success came at Royal Ascot where the 33/1 chance was able to pull off a shock win in the Windsor Castle Stakes. That half-length success came on good to firm ground and Joseph O’Brien will have high hopes for the horse.
