2025 Summer Stakes Betting Tips

Sayidah Dariyan runs for Richard Hughes and there are plenty of signs that the horse can produce a fine performance in the William Hill Summer Stakes. There was a fourth-placed finish in a big field at Royal Ascot, with the 66/1 chance hitting the frame. A repeat of that performance in the Commonwealth Cup could be enough to land the spoils.

This came after finishing third out of ten runners in the Carnarvon Stakes, with that coming after a victory on the all-weather at Chelmsford. However, First Instinct has plenty of solid credentials, with the horse last seen finishing second in a Fillies’ Stakes race at Ayr Racecourse. This came after a third-placed effort in the Sandy Lane Stakes at Haydock.

Sky Majesty hails from the same stable and also stands a chance. There was an outing at Royal Ascot, with the 33/1 shot finishing eighth last time out. It was a fine showing in the Commonwealth Cup and came after an outing on the all-weather at Chelmsford. There were a string of successes at Newbury, Ayr and Chantilly last year.

Nighteyes is a four-year-old who impressed at Royal Ascot and could be set to feature heavily here. The horse might have been outclassed in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes although a fourth-placed finish at Royal Ascot was pretty solid. That came after finishing third at Haydock Park when running in a listed race stakes.
