King's Stand has 24 hopefuls All the leading fancies stood their ground as 24 horses were declared at the six-day stage for the King's Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot. Last year's winner Sole Power is favourite again this time around for the Edward Lynam yard who could also run Moviesta and Anthem Alexander. Brazen Beau is second in the betting as he looks to continue Australia's impressive record in the big sprints at the meeting and he could be joined in the field by compatriot Shamal Wind. Recent Chantilly winner Muthmir and Mecca's Angel spearhead the home defence which could also include last year's Haydock Sprint Trophy winner G Force and top three-year-old filly Tiggy Wiggy, although both have alternative engagements during the week.
