Alobayyah, trained by William Haggas, is the favourite to win the Kensington Palace Stakes at Ascot on Wednesday. The Kensington Palace Stakes is a fiercely competitive handicap, with 25 fillies and mares competing over a mile-long distance.
Alobayyah was a massive eye-catcher in her last race over course and distance, eating up the ground from an unpromising position. She was given a pound rise in the handicap for that effort, leaving her on a mark of 90, which she should be more than capable of taking advantage of.
With a handy draw in 16 and jockey Tom Marquand on board, Alobayyah has a strong chance of success. The Haggas stable is currently in great form, with several recent wins, which adds to Alobayyah's chances.
Miss Nightfall, trained by James Fanshawe, is another contender in the Kensington Palace Stakes. She has tumbled down to a mark of 89, which she may be able to take advantage of, especially as she loves fast ground.
The Kensington Palace Stakes is one of several fiercely competitive handicaps on the Ascot card on Wednesday. With several strong contenders, it promises to be an exciting and unpredictable race.
