2022 Kings Stand Stakes Preview, Trends & Analysis

2022 Kings Stand Stakes Preview

Established in 1860, the Kings Stand Stakes was originally created due to the Royal Stand Plate not being able to be run due to heavy rain. The two miles race was replaced by this 5f race as it was the only part of the racecourse which was raceable.

The Group 1 race takes place on the opening day of Royal Ascot and is the top five-furlong race at the festival. The race is open to runners aged three years or older with three-year-old runners running off 8-12 and the older runners off 9-4, fillies and mares also get a 3lb allowance.

We also have a dedicated Royal Ascot Betting Picks page that will cover this race as well as all of the other races on the day of the race, see which runners the OLBG racing tipsters are predicting to win this race and the others on the cards.

Over the last 20 renewals, it was the Lee Freedman trained Miss Andretti ridden by Craig Newitt who has set the fastest winning time in the Kings Stand Stakes, the runner won the race in a time of 57.44 that was set when winning the race in 2007. At the other end of the scale, it was the combination of trainer Clive Cox and jockey Adam Kirby with Profitable who set the slowest winning time, the race-winning time was 1:02.69 in the 2016 renewal.
