Verdict

A wide-open renewal of the Queen Anne Stakes to kick off Royal Ascot and an intriguing mix of proven performers at this level from both the UK and abroad. There was plenty to like about BENBATL's win in a high-class renewal of the Dubai Turf and he's been allowed time to recover from that run; he should be primed for this. Both Yoshida and Recoletos are both fascinating international runners arriving on the back of Grade/Group 1 success last time out and Rhododendron couldn't be ruled out if she improves from her win in the Lockinge last time. Century Dream brings a different profile in to the race but it would be no surprise to see him play some sort of role.
  1. Benbatl
  2. Rhododendron
  3. Yoshida
