St Nicholas Abbey heads a strong field for the 2012 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Royal Ascot on Saturday.

St Nicholas Abbey is the 2/1 favourite with StanJames.com for Saturday's King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot after 12 horses were left in at the five-day entry stage.

The firm's Rory Jiwani told Bettingpro: 

"Aidan O'Brien's Coronation Cup winner heads the betting for what looks like an excellent cosmopolitan renewal with Eclipse winner Nathaniel next best at 11/4 for John Gosden, and Sir Michael Stoute's Hardwicke Stakes winner Sea Moon a 3/1 shot.

"Melbourne Cup winner Dunaden is a 5/1 chance with last year's Arc heroine Danedream available at 10/1 and it's 20/1 bar."

O'Brien could have a colt to follow hot on the hooves of Camelot as Mars cruised to victory on debut this afternoon at Dundalk.

Jiwani added, "Mars was 16/1 favourite for the 2013 Derby before his racecourse debut and we saw a bit of money for the son of Galileo last week. He won very easily from stablemate The Ferryman who could well be decent, so we've cut him to 12/1 for next June at Epsom."

King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes antepost betting (EW 1/5 1,2,3): 2 St Nicholas Abbey 11/4 Nathaniel 3 Sea Moon 5 Dunaden 10 Danedream 20 Brown Panther, Deep Brilliante, Reliable Man, Shareta 25 Masked Marvel 250 Robin Hood, Windsor Palace.

2013 Epsom Derby antepost betting (EW 1/4 1,2,3): 12 Mars 14 Dawn Approach 16 Theatre 20 Flying The Flag 25 Tha'ir, The United States, Azrur 33 Move To Strike, Birdman 66 Maxentius
