Royal Ascot 2025 results: Time For Sandals, Venetia Sun win on day four

Time For Sandals was a surprise 25-1 winner of the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot as favourite Shadow Of Light could only finish fifth.

Richard Kingscote rode the victor, who is nicknamed ‘Flip Flop’ at her stables, from stall one for in-form trainer Harry Eustace.

Eustace was celebrating a top-level Group One double, having won Tuesday’s opening Queen Anne Stakes with Docklands.

“It’s the hardest place on earth, but the horses have turned up in great shape,” said Eustace.

Shadow Of Light was last year’s champion juvenile and had finished third in the 2,000 Guineas behind his victorious stablemate Ruling Court, but trainer Charlie Appleby said he was unsuited by the good to firm going.

The Commonwealth Cup is one of two top-level Group One races on Friday, alongside the Coronation Stakes (16:20 BST).

Jockey Warren Fentiman, 17, rides for King Charles on Purple Rainbow in the following Sandringham Stakes.
