Newmarket Stakes 2027 Betting Odds

Friday 30 April 2027 · Newmarket · By Matthew Glazier · Last updated

Charlie Appleby saddles Poseidon's Warrior and the Godolphin horse began the current campaign brightly. It bodes well for Friday's JCB Newmarket Stakes, with the runner having produced some bright displays last season. My Love Is King could be a good each-way shout, with John & Thady Gosden saddling a runner who was second last time out.

Sahara King runs for Richard Hannon and is operating at a similar price to Lyneham and Protection Act. The latter won on his only appearance and George Boughey's horse might well find further improvement on a seasonal debut. Archers Bay, Royal Standard and Ancient Egypt are other contenders for what should be an exciting encounter.

2026 JCB Newmarket Stakes Betting Tips

Poseidon's Warrior has been installed as the warm favourite to win the JCB Newmarket Stakes. Charlie Appleby's charge has run three times in his career and they've all been encouraging displays. The last outing came at Newmarket in April where the 9/5 favourite was second in the Betway Feilden Stakes. He was narrowly touched off by Morshdi in the end.

Previously to this, there was an October win at Goodwood. It was fairly predictable to see the horse get home in a novice stakes race over one mile and one furlong. The 4/11 favourite obliged by five lengths and this came after finishing second in a maiden stakes at Haydock. The horse is operating at odds-on to win this race.

My Love Is King has raced twice and the latter performance saw the horse finish second at Newbury in a competitive race. The April encounter featured a strong field, although the charge was desperately close to toppling favourite Maltese Cross. That followed an all-weather success at Newcastle Racecourse back in November.

Sahara King is trained by Richard Hannon and the horse was last seen finishing fifth at Newbury recently. That came in a field of ten in the same race where My Love Is King finished in second place. The horse previously won on the all-weather at Wolverhampton when being sent off at 16/1 only to win by a neck on that occasion.


2024 Newmarket Stakes Tips

Endless Victory lines up as the short-priced favourite when it comes to the William Hill Newmarket Stakes, with the three-year-old having passed both assignments with flying colours. There was a triumph at Wolverhampton in February and that was against four other rivals on the all-weather surface before a more impressive win at Newmarket.

Sent off at even money for that recent encounter, William Buick was on board a charge that claimed a narrow victory of a short head, with the runner now bidding to record a hat-trick of wins. It will be interesting to see whether he gets things his own way in a competitive encounter that includes Whip Cracker lining up.

The three-year-old has run once this season and finished second in the bet365 Feilden Stakes when following home Jayarebe. That was over one mile and one furlong, with the horse over three lengths behind the eventual winner, although there had been a victory on the all-weather at Chelmsford last October after a second-placed finish at Newmarket.

Caviar Heights was sent off at 66/1 before running well in the same race at Newmarket and has the potential to improve on that run. The Karl Burke-trained runner previously won at Goodwood back in September and that came before an underwhelming performance at Newmarket although the omens could be good this time around.
