King’s Stand Tip: Shea Shea
Confirmed himself one of the best 5f sprinters in the world by winning the G1 Al Quoz at Meydan, breaking the track record in the process.
British and Irish sprinters are often considered the poor relations to their international counterparts and looking at the role of honour for the King’s Stand (3.05 Ascot) it is hard to disagree.
Eight of the last ten winners have come from outside Britain and Ireland and the foreign raiders look strong again.
Al Quoz Sprint 2013
Shea Shea enjoyed a productive winter in Dubai, twice smashing the course record at Meydan and winning the Group 1 Al Quoz sprint on World Cup night.
The six-year-old has the highest rating in the race and seems adaptable as far as going is concerned having won good, soft and yielding ground during his career.
After winning in Dubai, Mike De Kock nominated the King’s Stand as his next target and at 5/2 (Paddy Power) he quite simply looks the best horse in the race .
