Gigaset International Stakes Odds and Preview – Horse Racing Betting July 29

Gosden second string could be Johnny on the spot

Horse Racing Betting

The King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes (sponsored by Qipco) is no doubt the showpiece at Ascot this Saturday. But dual Oaks winner Enable is likely to start a short-priced favourite for the middle-distance Group 1 and the big betting heat on the card is the preceding Gigaset International Stakes.

Gigaset International Stakes Trends

The Gigaset International Stakes hadn’t been the happiest of hunting grounds for fancied horses until Librisa Breeze landed a gamble last year – he was the first favourite to oblige in 10 years on his first run over 7f but did continue the outstanding recent trend which greatly favours four and five-year-olds.
No horse aged older than five has won since the turn of the century and only one three-year-old has won in that time – none of the younger generation’s two runners this time make much appeal either.
None of the last 10 winners have carried more than 9st7lb with eight of those having an official rating between 95 and 104. Proven ability over 7f or further is an absolutely must according to the statistics but the draw gives us no real clues, though only two of the last 13 winners started from a single-figure draw.

It’s a big day for the John Gosden stable with Enable looking to better her elders in the King George and the stable has two runners in the Gigaset International Stakes. Remarkable, like Enable, will be partnered by Frankie Dettori and is a general 10/1 to go one better than at Newbury last week but JOHNNY BARNES makes more appeal at 33/1 with Ladbrokes. He wasn’t far behind his stable companion at Newbury and gave the impression that the race will have brought him forward. He’s a former Group 3 winner and likes some give in the ground. Stall 20 will give William Buick plenty of options and the five-year-old offers plenty of value.

Fastnet Tempest has long looked an individual who would benefit from the re-fitting of headgear and he was far from disgraced in the Royal Hunt Cup (when Remarkable was sixth). He shouldn’t be be overly inconvenienced by the return to 7f but is vying for favouritism with Makzeem at around 7/1. The latter finished second in the Bunbury Cup consolation race (Fawareeq was third and Swift Approval fourth) at Newmarket and that was only the four-year-old’s second run over 7f. There should be more to come for that stable that last won this in 2007.
