Royal Ascot Day 5 Picks

Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Picks (R3- 10:40 AM ET)

The final Group 1 of Royal Ascot in 2025 comes in the form of the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes. This race is run over a distance of six furlongs, with horses aged four and older involved. Lazzat has jumped to the top of the betting in recent weeks after impressing since returning to the track.

Inisherin deserves plenty of respect after landing the G1 Commonwealth Cup at this meeting 12 months ago. He also made an excellent return to form after beating Flora Of Bermuda in the G2 Clipper Stakes at York.

However, so often have we seen Aidan O’Brien’s stars blow out before bouncing back to form with an excellent showing. Therefore, the highly regarded Storm Boy could be the value play.

The colt was beaten on his British debut for O’Brien after moving from Australia in the winter. However, his record Down Under was exceptional, and he is the one to beat if at his very best at Ascot on Saturday.

Wokingham Stakes (R5- 12:00 PM ET)

The big betting race on the final day of Royal Ascot comes in the form of the Wokingham Stakes. The handicap will be contested over a straight six furlongs, with Unequal Love winning the most recent edition in 2024 at odds of +1200.

In fact, there has only been one single-digit winner of the race in the last five renewals. Therefore, there could be value in siding with a selection at bigger price on Saturday.

Korker ticks plenty of the trends for the race this year. The Karl Burke-trained runner has won six from 37 starts on the turf, and he has been running consistently over six furlongs this season.

That includes a third at Hamilton at the start of the month. He enjoys his runs at Ascot, finishing second over five furlongs at the track in October 2023. Handicapped to play a major role in the Wokingham this year.
