Odds Subject to Change
Postmodern heads the market at 5.00 and rightly so. He made a huge impression on debut, showing cruising speed and a polished finish. The vibes from the yard are strong, and connections clearly think he's the real deal.
Charles Darwin sits just behind at 7.00. Aidan O'Brien rarely sends anything ordinary to this race. Solid prep, smart form, and that Ballydoyle pedigree - you know the script.
Treanmor is trading at 7.50. He looked raw first time out but powered through the line, which is exactly what you want to see for a stiff finish like Ascot's. Godolphin has big hopes here.
Military Code at 8.00 is a grinder. If they go fast up front - and they often do - he could be mowing them down late. Tough, honest, and still improving.
Maximized (9.00) comes from a respected outfit and won stylishly in novice company. Might need to take a big step forward, but definitely not out of place.
🎯 Mid-Market Movers
Amadeus Mozart (11.00) has speed, tactical awareness, and comes from a yard that targets Royal Ascot with intent. Could be one of the sharper types early.
Gstaad, priced at 13.00, looks like he'll love the strong pace and wide-open nature of this field. He's one of the better value runners with proven staying power.
Underwriter, Flushing Meadows, and Reciprocated are all around 15.00. These are your punchy each-way candidates - each one has won with something in hand and looks set to handle the Ascot conditions.
🏆 Value & Outsiders
If you're shopping deeper for longshot glory, there's no shortage of contenders in the 21.00 to 34.00 range -Power Blue, Wise Approach, Naval Light, and Dictal among them.
For the true dark horses: Bone Marra, Shaatir, and Tahalel sit at 41.00, with Clear Force, First Approach, and Tadej pushing out to 51.00.
The real outsiders - Evening Blues, Side Deal, Extravagant, and Blue Orbit - are all north of 67.00, with Blue Orbit priced at 101.00.
🧠 Final Thoughts
This is a high-quality renewal of the Coventry Stakes, and with no overwhelming favourite, it's a wide-open betting opportunity.
Postmodern has the profile and performance to justify top billing. If you're hunting value, Gstaad could offer the perfect balance of form and odds. Military Code brings strong closing credentials if the early leaders go too hard.
