2025 Coral Charge Betting Tips
We’ve got an exciting start to the horse racing meeting at Sandown Park on Saturday, with She’s Quality having solid credentials in the Coral Charge. The four-year-old was last seen finishing second at Haydock Park last time out, narrowly missing out by half a length in the Betfred Temple Stakes and that was a Group 2 encounter.
Previously to this, the horse was really impressive as a 20/1 shot when finishing runner-up in the Palace House Stakes. Perhaps we’ll see the charge go one better when it comes to this encounter, although Kerdos could be another one to consider. There was a solid outing at Royal Ascot where a fifth-placed finish out of twenty runner was achieved.
That was in the King Charles III Stakes over five furlongs where the horse had no right to perform so well at odds of 66/1. Clive Cox trains a runner who actually unseated their rider at the start of the race. That came after finishing second last in the Duke of York Clipper Stakes over six furlongs at York Racecourse in the middle of May.
Adrestia could be the each-way value in the race. Simon & Ed Crisford’s charge was able to win the Palace of Holyroodhouse Stakes over five furlongs. It was a competitive encounter, with Balmoral Lady having performed well in the King Charles III Stakes when finishing ninth out of twenty runners despite being sent off at 50/1.

Live In The Dream has been installed as the betting favourite to win the Coral Charge on Saturday 6 July, with Adam West training a horse who has turned out twice this season. Most recently, the runner underwhelmed in the Achilles Stakes, with the charge sent off as the 5/4 favourite after a second-placed finish in the Betfred Temple Stakes.
Some will feel that the price about the favourite is a touch too short when it comes to a horse that has failed to win any of his past four encounters. Twilight Calls is another runner who hasn’t been able to notch a recent win, with Henry Candy having seen his horse finish sixth out of a field of seventeen in the King Charles III Stakes.
That came after finishing fourth in the William Hill Palace House Stakes, with Ryan Moore steering the charge to a midfield finish. You have to go back a long way to finding the last time that the horse was able to rack up a win, with Desperate Hero bidding for a consecutive hat-trick by comparison.
The four-year-old has notched back to back wins at Goodwood and Hamilton, with the former being achieved by a neck over five furlongs on heavy ground. Then came a victory in a much bigger field in Scotland, with Jack Channon saddling a runner who looks to be a spot of each-way value, with the favourites certainly opposable.
2023 Coral Charge Tips
It’s going to be a fast run race when the horses line up for the Coral Charge at Sandown Park. We’re excited to see which runner is able to triumph over the short distance, with Annaf having run a strong race when finishing third in the King’s Stand Stakes. That was a Group One encounter at Royal Ascot when the horse was able to perform well despite odds of 50/1.
The King’s Stand Stakes could act as an important barometer when it comes to which horse might run well here, with Equilateral having also outrun his betting odds at 33/1 to finish fifth in that particular encounter. Marshman was more fancied by the bookies for that encounter when running into seventh at betting odds of 10/1.
Therefore, the front three in the betting might all be closely matched and that is reflected in the betting odds, although Get Ahead has the ability to claim the spoils and the four-year-old performed well at Chantilly at the beginning of June. The Clive Cox-trained runner was narrowly beaten into second place in the Prix du Gros-Chene.
The mare had previously performed well to win a listed race over six furlongs at Haydock Park, with Desert Cop the talented three-year-old in the encounter who was sixth in the King’s Stand Stakes and there could be more to come from a runner who was sent off at betting odds of 33/1, with a second-placed finish coming in the Carnarvon Stakes.
