Royal Ascot Albany Stakes Betting
On Day 4 of Royal Ascot, the Albany Stakes race will take place, a short Group 3 which covers six furlongs. As the event approaches, you can find the latest Albany Stakes odds for each of the runners participating. However, these betting markets will likely be updated as runners are dropped from the race or new favourites emerge.
Who is the favourite for the Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot?
The Albany Stakes betting odds currently favour the Fairy Godmother who sits at 2/1, slightly ahead of Mountain Breeze who sits at 5/2. Fairy Godmother won last time out, beating Sparkling Seas in the process, who is the only horse so far to have beaten Fairy Godmother.
With that in mind, Mountain Breeze is undefeated winning both of their races so far. However, all of these horses have ran a very small number of races, meaning the chances for a shock winner could be higher here than the betting odds show.
