Ascot – Race 7 – Prince of Wales Stakes
- Odds-on Favourites: #2 Idyllic Prince and #10 Waratah’s Secret at $4.80 Luxbet
- Races.com.au Favourite to Win – # 3 Grand Nirvana at $8 Luxbet
The Fred Kersley-trained Grand Nirvana is at a generous quote of $8 to win the Prince of Wales Stakes at Luxbet.
Despite drawing wide with barrier 11, the local five-year-old Scenic gelding has been slightly flat in his two season starts, which is why the punters are hesitant to get behind him.
However, having won the Belmont Sprint back in June the tough galloper is improving slowly this season and after a run here last start is sure to improve today.
