Ascot will host one of the highlights of the flat season today.
A field of nine of the finest flat racing horses will take to Ascot today for the thrilling Group 1 King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Qipco Stakes.
This prestigious race, run over 1m4f, is often considered one of the best flat races of the year. With £708,875 in prize money up for grabs, it’s no wonder this race is fiercely contested.
August Rodin currently leads the betting at a best price of 13/8 at Ladbrokes as he seeks his seventh Group 1 win. However, it will be no walk in the park for the Aidan O'Brien-trained colt as he faces formidable competition with Group 1 form from around the globe.

Rebel's Romance has an impressive record, having won 13 of his last 19 races and remaining unbeaten in his last three.
