Betfred spokesman Matt Hulmes said: "The two Group 1 races this afternoon have been relatively quiet in trading terms. The Commonwealth Cup looks wide open and punters are playing cautiously, while the story of the Coronation Stakes is the opposition to the favourite Inspiral, who is out to 100/30.
"There has been significant support for Newmarket winner Mawj (13/8 from 3/1) in the Albany Stakes after she was tipped in a few quarters last night, while each-way players have nibbled at Beautiful Eyes (33/1 from 50/1).
"There is a spread of cash in the Duke Of Edinburgh but not for The Queen's Just Fine. Mashhoor (13/2 from 9/1), Trawlerman (9/2 from 11/2) and the Kim Bailey-trained Ajero (8/1 from 16/1) have all shortened significantly.
"Tenebrism was a disappointing favourite in the QIPCO 1,000 Guineas but has been backed into 9/1 for redemption in the Coronation Stakes.
"Fresh Hope bids to give Charlie Fellowes and Hayley Turner a third Sandringham Stakes success in four years and has been backed accordingly from 10/1 into 13/2. Fellow market leader Heredia (9/2 from 11/2) has also been supported to retain her unbeaten record.
"Ottoman Fleet is the money horse in the King Edward VII Stakes, into 7/4 from 9/4, while there is a spread of support in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse Handicap. Ladies Church (5/1 from 10/1) and Latin Lover (17/2 from 14/1) are the biggest movers among many shorteners in the tough looking getting-out stakes.
"In terms of the top jockey award, Ryan Moore is now the 1/2 favourite to end the meeting top of the standings after his double yesterday. Kyprios' Gold Cup success gave Aidan O'Brien a second win of the week, drawing him level with Charlie Appleby, and they are 10/11 and 11/8 respectively to win the trainer award."
