2025 Ascot Gold Cup Betting Odds

The Gold Cup is the showpiece event at the iconic Royal Ascot meeting, which will take place in June 2025. As usual, this stellar G1 race will be run over two miles and three furlongs, while it’s open to horses aged four years or older.

But who is the favourite for the 2025 Ascot Gold Cup, and how can you wager on this race here at Parimatch? Let’s get into it.  

Ascot Gold Cup Betting Tips

Before we explore the 2025 Ascot Gold Cup odds and most likely winners, we will consider some of the most exciting trend factors and betting tips. These will help you to identify the best value runners and betting markets and ultimately make the most informed selections possible:

  • Look for Aidan O’Brien Trained Runners: Aidan O’Brien is the most successful trainer throughout the last 20 Ascot Gold Cup renewals (and overall), fielding an incredible nine winners between 2006 and 2024. He has also earned 11 placed finishes from 24 runners (46%), significantly outperforming rivals John Gosden and Saeed bin Suroor during this period. Interestingly, O’Brien’s ‘Kyprios’ was the ante-post favourite for 2024 and has won again.
  • Ryan Moore also has a Superb Track Record at Ascot: Jockey Ryan Moore enjoys a prolific partnership with O’Brien and has ridden Kyprios in each of his last ten outings since April 2021. This includes the runner’s 2022 triumph in the Ascot Gold Cup, while Moore has recorded three wins and seven placed finishes in 18 attempts since 2004. He is also the most successful jockey overall at Ascot over the last five seasons, achieving 35 wins and 112 places from 274 rides.
  • Give Weight to the Betting Favourite: In the previous 20 Ascot Gold Cup iterations, the starting favourite has triumphed on 12 occasions. As a result, being first in the betting market remains the most telling trend factor ahead of the Ascot Gold Cup, producing more than ten winners and an LSP of +8.13 since 2004. 

How to bet on the Ascot Gold Cup

Now that you’ve seen the ante-post Ascot Gold Cup odds, the question that remains is how exactly should you bet on the race? Here are some of the available Gold Cup betting markets: 

  • Pick the Race Winner: Most pertinent trend factors justify Kyprios’ status as the ante-post favourite. There’s also a chance that his odds could shorten further as the race draws closer, so we’d recommend backing him sooner rather than later if this is your intent. We’d also expect Courage Mon Ami’s odds to shorten slightly in the coming weeks, and he offers value as a 7/1* outsider at the time of writing.
  • Each-Way Betting: More than 20 runners are listed to compete in the Ascot Gold Cup, so each-way betting may also offer significant value here. Certainly, Courage Mon Ami and Vauban offer each-way value at respective odds of 7/1* and 8/1*, as does Andrew Balding’s 12/1* shot Coltrane. He placed second in the 2023 Ascot Gold Cup and won the Longines Sagaro Stakes at the course on May 1st, while he’ll most likely be ridden by Oisin Murphy, who has an excellent record at Ascot.
