Horse Betting Tips

Aidan O’Brien netted his second Classic in as many days when 25-1 relative outsider Homecoming Queen followed up Camelot’s 2000 Guineas win with victory in the fillies’ equivalent on Sunday.

As a result, William Hill – official betting partners to the Epsom festival – quote her at 5-1 Investec Oaks, however the firm have promoted fellow O’Brien filly Kissed into 3-1 favouritism from 4-1 for the Epsom Classic.

Hills eased ante-post market-leader Maybe to 6-1 from 3-1 after finishing a distant ten-length third behind the winner, although the firm quote O’Brien at a hot 4-5 he will train the Oaks winner.

William Hill spokeswoman Kate Miller said, “Just 24 hours after Aidan O’Brien nets the 2000 Guineas, the master of Ballydoyle takes a second Classic, even though the result wasn’t what many would have expected. As bad a result Camelot was for the bookies, this certainly evened the score and the trainer will now head to Epsom with a solid grip on both the Derby and Oaks”
