William Hill News look at some of the overnight market moves on Friday at Royal Ascot, with Wesley Ward’s Bacio proving popular with punters for the Palace of Holyroodhouse in the finale.

The American raider is now 4/1 (from 9/1) to win the final race on Day 4, while Aidan O’Brien’s Albert Einstein has also received support in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup.

Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “Wesley Ward mightn’t have had a winner at Royal Ascot in five years, but our punters think he’s about to return to the winner’s enclosure today.

“His Bacio in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse has been absolutely smashed up. He was 9/1 last night but has more than halved into 4/1, and that money has got our traders on red alert.

“In the Commonwealth Cup, Venetian Sun’s short price is seeing our customers look elsewhere. Albert Einstein has been popular and the 8/1 is starting to come under pressure. Samangan is also in for money at 11/1 from 16s.

Precise, currently priced at 4/7 to win the Coronation Stakes, is one of the shortest priced horses of the entire week and she has been boosted by William Hill to even money.

“Precise will be a key horse today in the Coronation. She’s the subject of our Epic Boost today, which offers EVS instead of 4/7 for her to win, so we’ll be hoping something can spring a surprise.”
