Royal Ascot 2023: Day two race cards, runners and riders and latest tips

After an action-packed opening to what has already been an emotional Royal Ascot on Tuesday, all focus turns towards the famous old course once again this afternoon as several fascinating contests lie in wait.

Ryan Moore stole the headlines on the opening day after claiming a fine treble that was sealed by a stunning win for Vauban in the Copper Horse Stakes and he will be hoping to continue his form on day two. Hollie Doyle was the other history maker on Tuesday when she became the first female jockey to ride a Group 1 winner when she led Bradsell to victory in the King’s Stand Stakes.

With a seemingly unpredictable afternoon lying in wait, NationalWorld takes a look at the runners, riders, latest odds and our tips across seven races.

Tip: Relief Rally (5/1)

Looking for a third consecutive win, Relief Rally was first past the post under differing conditions during wins at Windsor and Salisbury over the last two months. Crimson Advocate is the main threat after some lively displays at Gulfsteam Park.

3.40pm: Duke of Cambridge Stakes (1m)

1. Grande Dame (J Spencer - J and T Gosden) 11/2 2. Honey Girl (D B McGonagle - J P O’Brien) 11/1 3. Internationalangel (H Doyle - J Chapple-Hyam) 22/1 4. Jumbly (R Moore - J P O’Brien) 9/4 5.

Tip: Prosperous Voyage (3/1)

A win in the Falmouth Stakes and a second in the 1,000 Guineas, this four-year-old will under the guidance of Frankie Dettori for a third consecutive race and they will have to see off the much-fancied Jumbly to come first past the post.

4.20: Prince of Wales’s Stakes (1m 1f 212yds)

1. Adayar (W Buick - C Appleby) 11/4 2. Bay Bridge (R Kingscote - Sir M Stoute) 7/2 3. Classic Causeway (J R Leparoux - K McPeek) 100/1 4. Luxembourg (R Moore - A P O’Brien) 2/1 5. Mostadhaf (J Crowley - J and T Gosden) 16/1 6. My Prospero (T Marquand - W Haggas) 7/2

Tip: Luxembourg (2/1)

Was heavily backed as the favourite for last year’s Derby but missed out after suffering a muscular problem in training but goes into this on the back of an impressive win in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh last month, seeing off Bay Bridge in the process.

2. Tempus (H Doyle - A Watson) 40/1 3. Reach For The Moon (F Dettori - J and T Gosden) 12/1 4. Imperial Fighter (C Hutchinson - A Balding) 66/1 5. Positive (A Kirby - C Cox) 50/1 6.

Light And Dark (D Probert - S bin Suroor) 66/1 31. Dual Identity (N Callan - W Knight) 20/1

Tip: Dunum (10/1)

Given the form Dunum has shown over the last year, it could be argued these odds are generous and are difficult to ignore. Wins and second places in each of the last seven races, Dunum will be a real threat here and will hope to continue showing promise with a win.

5.35pm: Queen’s Vase (1m 6f 34yds)

1. Bateman’s Boy (J McDonald - R Beckett) 25/1 2. Chesspiece (J Doyle - S and E Chisford) 11/2 3. Circle Of Fire (R Kingscote - Sir M Stoute) 7/1 4.

Tip: Gregory (7/4)

Highly likely to go off as a short price favourite after claiming wins at Haydock in April and Goodwood last month under the guidance of Robert Havlin. Frankie Dettori will be on board this afternoon and he will be hoping to continue Gregory’s perfect record with another win in his final Royal Ascot.

World Of Darcy (D Tudhope - K R Burke) 14/1

Tip: Maximum Impact (6/1)

Kevin Stott will be on board Maximum Impact once again as they look to replicate wins at Leicester and Ascot last month. Barnwell Boy seems the main threat to their chances.
