King Charles III is left disappointed as Rainbow's Edge finishes seventh in Kensington Palace Stakes - a day after his horse was easily beaten on Royal Ascot opening day
King Charles III was left disappointed after his horse Rainbow's Edge slumped to a seventh place finish on the second day at Royal Ascot, as Miss Information claimed top honours in the Kensington Palace Stakes. With the well-fancied Reaching High unable to land a blow when the 11-4 favourite for Tuesday's Ascot Stakes, attentions turned to the next runner to carry the royal silks in the penultimate race on Wednesday's card and Rainbows Edge was the 3-1 market leader come the off. The four-year-old had won three of her four starts for the the in-form training team of John and Thady Gosden, but while she travelled strongly for the first half of this straight mile contest under William Buick, she was a spent force with two furlongs to run and faded out of contention. John Gosden said: 'The ground was too quick for her, it dried out too much for her and she wants stepping up to a mile and a quarter. 'She's actually run well for a filly who wasn't in love with the ground, so we will just now go a mile and a quarter with a bit of ease in the ground and hopefully win a Listed race with her.' At the business end of proceedings it was Andrew Balding's Miss Information (11-1) and the Gavin Cromwell-trained Snellen who came to the fore, with the former coming out on top by a length in the hands of Oisin Murphy. Balding said: 'She's been a star, this filly. She had no luck last time at Epsom, she got shuffled back and just didn't seem to enjoy herself. 'Fast ground is what she wants, she just about got the mile. 'It's so nice for her owner, they really get a lot of enjoyment out of it and I'm so pleased for them. 'She's in the Bunbury Cup, we will try to get some black type at some stage and she'll make a lovely broodmare.' It comes just a day after the King's horse Reaching High was well-beaten on the opening day as Ascending won the Ascot Stakes by a head. The horse, ridden by Ryan Moore, was the hot favourite before the runners set off at the historic Flat race meeting, at 11/4 to claim the £57,000 first-place prize ahead of going to post. Trained by National Hunt superstar trainer Willie Mullins, Reaching High was bred by the late Queen Elizabeth II out of Estimate, who won the Ascot Gold Cup in 2013.
