Seasiders owner Simon Sadler celebrated victory at Royal Ascot as Ten Bob Tony became the longest-priced winner of the G1 Queen Anne Stakes since Garrick in 1950.

There were tears running down my face, says Sadler

Trained by Ed Walker, the winner was sent off at 50/1 in the Royal Ascot curtain raiser on Tuesday.

Having just his third run over a mile — the last one being in May 2024 — Ten Bob Tony stayed on strongly under Kieran Shoemark to win by half a length from More Thunder.

Blackpool owner Sadler said: “This horse is named after my dad. That was his nickname because he used to run a 50p — or 10 bob — stall on the market in Blackpool.
