About the King George V Stakes

The King George V Stakes is a handicap race run on day three of Royal Ascot and is often a competitive betting heat. 

It may lack the quality of some of the other Royal Ascot races, but this race can often produce some improving types that go on to contest Group races later in their careers. It's not been uncommon to see horses that run well in this to go on and compete in the St Leger at Doncaster later in the season, while some horses have progressed to become excellent stayers with the Gold Cup a potential target in the future.

The William Haggas-trained Desert Hero was an 18/1 winner of the 2023 renewal for His Majesty The King.
