QIPCO British Champions' Day, the richest fixture in British racing history, is being hosted at Ascot. Offering £3 million in prize money, the day will feature the Champion Stakes, Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, Diadem Stakes, Jockey Club Cup and the Pride Stakes and a valuable Handicap.

The Champion Stakes over a mile and a quarter is historically the final all aged Group 1 of the season and has been transferred from Newmarket to form the centrepiece of the card with the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, the world's premier mile race.

Ascot's prime location and capacity are viewed as important to help set the stage for British racing to create a larger and more prestigious climax to the premier flat season for three year olds and upwards. The long-term aim is for this event to rank with the Breeders' Cup and Frances' Prix de L'Arc de Triomphe.

Why not be part of history at this inaugural event as the best horses and jockeys battle it out to be crowned the King or Queen of British racing.
