OH WHAT A Knight
Atzeni all set to lead the charge
DECORATED KNIGHT, the winner of three Group one races already this year, can sink a host of celebrated rivals in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes this afternoon.
roger charlton’s contender for the feature race on day two of the royal meeting won the tattersalls Gold cup at the curragh last time on ground considered too soft for him. ascot’s faster surface should be much more to the liking of jockey andrea atzeni’s classy mount.
Racemail’s top tipster Sam turner — who rewarded his followers by picking big-race winners ribchester (11-10) and Barney roy (5-2) yesterday — is backing Decorated Knight to eclipse a top-class field.
the main threats are last month’s coronation cup winner Highland reel, and Jack Hobbs, winner of the £3million Dubai Sheema classic.
