'Veteran boxer' Stradivarius ready for heavyweight clash in Gold Cup at Royal Ascot

The Stradivarius is preparing for a Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. Last Thursday, a 300-year-old Stradoivarian violin was sold for £12 million.

Stradivarius is running in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot on a day when The Queen is expected to be in attendance. Stradivius was beaten by Subjectivist last season.

Stradivarius is the world's best stayer. He is trained by John Gosden. Stradivius won the Gold Cup in 2013. Frankie Dettori has been in the saddle for 25 of Strado's races. He got some stick for his ride last year. This year he will face some new rivals, including Kyprios. Kyrios won his first Gold cup in 2018. The horse is still a full horse. His stallion career is several months away. Gosen hopes to add a couple of trophies to his cabinet before he hangs up his racing shoes. It's very different training an eight-year-old gelding to an 8-years- old full-horse.

Remember to gamble responsibly. Establishes time and monetary limits before playing. Gambling is not worth it if one is upset, angry or depressed.

Stradivarius has a gambling policy. He only gambles with money he can afford to lose and he never chases his losses. Stradivius doesn't gamble if he's upset, angry or depressed.
