Royal Ascot - Queen's Vase Tips

4.55 Queen's Vase (Class 1) (Group 3) 2m

Names after Queen Victoria and first run in 1838, this race became the King’s Vase in 1903 before reverting to its original name on the succession of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Run over 2 miles the Group 3 contest provides a thorough test of stamina for 3 year olds and winners of this race often go on to compete in the Gold Cup in future years.

Both Sir Michael Stoute’s PATAKI and EBADIYAN deserve the utmost respect. PATAKI will rally to the extra half mile this race affords and will go off a worthy favourite. PATKAI could be up for the St Ledger. EBADIYAN has a bit more to do in this race than his recent Gowan Park run but deserves consideration.

Main bet: PATAKI 6/4.
Next best: EBADIYAN 5/1 each way.
