King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes Betting

Without doubt the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes is the most prestigious Open age Group One race in the UK, which is raced over 1½ miles at Ascot each July. As open age suggests it is open to any thoroughbred aged two and over and usually attracts the very best 3, 4 and 5 year olds in racing, as its fantastic roll of honour will testify.

Eclipse Stakes

The Eclipse Stakes is a very similar race to that of the King George and often attracts the same sort of field. Indeed it is often the case when horse will run in both in the same season.

It is a Group One raced over 10 furlongs at Sandown Park and is usually the first major race where Group One standard three year olds can race against their four and five year old equivalents.

It was won in 2009 by the now legendary Sea The Stars, who of course went on to win the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.
