Baaeed rematch seems likely for Real World at Ascot
Queen Anne currently favoured over Prince of Wales’s Stakes.
Real World will “most likely” take on unbeaten Baaeed again in the Queen Anne Stakes, rather than tackle the Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot next month. Saeed bin Suroor and the Godolphin team have been mulling over the two options for the dual Group Two winner since Baaeed had the measure of him in the Lockinge Stakes at Newbury two weeks ago. Real World, a son of Dark Angel, won five consecutive stakes races before being pitched in at the highest level. Though beaten in both the Saudi Cup and Dubai World Cup, he acquitted himself well in the Lockinge, despite being beaten three and a quarter lengths by Baaeed, who is currently odds-on for Queen Anne glory.What. A. Horse!
