2024 Prospect Stakes Betting Odds at Doncaster racecourse

Saturday, 26 October 2024

There aren’t too many horses who can be ruled out when it comes to the Prospect Stakes, with several runners trading at single figure betting odds. This looks to be a competitive encounter at Doncaster Racecourse, with the Aidan O’Brien-trained Bounty regarded as a leading contender, although some will want to get a bigger priced alternative.

Diego Ventura runs for Hamad Al Jehani and there have been two successes and a runner-up spot in the previous three outings, with Nardra obliging for William Haggas on his only outing this term. Arctic Voyage was successful last time out, with Bob Mali having bagged a succession of three victories which puts him on the shortlist.

Esquire has had two outings in a short career to date, with the horse kicking off with a victory in a Maiden Stakes race at Hamilton. Then came a second-placed finish in the Coral Rockingham Stakes at York Racecourse, with the runner losing by less than a length against accomplished favourite Purosangue and he looks a worthy favourite.

Battle Cry runs for trainer Aidan O’Brien and the two-year-old was last seen finishing second on the all-weather track at Dundalk Racecourse. That was in a listed race over seven furlongs, with this coming after a credible fourth placed finish in the Betfred Flying Scotsman Stakes which was over seven furlongs.

Ballymount Boy can’t be completely ruled out and we shouldn’t dismiss the horse simply because he finished eighth out of ten runners last time out. After all, this was a race at Longchamp where the competition was fierce in the Qatar Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere. Previously to this was a second placed finish in the Betfred Acomb Stakes at York.

Al Shahab Storm was sent off as the 1/2 favourite in the recent Novice Stakes race at Goodwood before obliging, with this coming after finishing second over seven furlongs in a Maiden Stakes race at Newmarket. On that occasion, there was a distance of a head separating the horse from winner Accumulate.
