Top jockey Oisin Murphy will have plenty of leading chances at Royal Ascot this year, but he’s singled out one horse as a standout selection – and it’s currently available at 8/1 with the leading betting firms.
Ryan Moore heads into Royal Ascot 2026 as the clear odds-on favourite to finish the meeting as top jockey.
However, after riding five winners across the five-day festival last year, Oisin Murphy could represent value at 7/1 to the top rider this year.
The 30-year-old has ridden 20 Royal Ascot winners during his career, a figure that still trails some way behind Moore’s remarkable tally of 92 heading into this year’s meeting.
Even so, Murphy looks certain to add to his total with a strong book of rides and is relishing another crack at one of Flat racing’s biggest weeks.
