The potential raiders include 12 American entries, three each from Australia and Japan, plus one from Hong Kong. Staged from Tuesday, June 19th to Saturday, June 23th, inclusive, Royal Ascot 2018 offers record prize money over the five days of £7,305,000 (2017: £6,665,000, +10%). Nick Smith, Director of Racing and Communications at Ascot, commented today: “We’re very pleased with the variety and quality of the Royal Ascot entries this year. “Seven countries, including Britain, are represented, and amongst them a Hong Kong Chairman’s Sprint Prize winner, two US-trained Breeders’ Cup winners and a dual winner of the Group One Newmarket Handicap in Australia. “One of the great storylines of the 2017 meeting was the owners’ title, which went to the final race, the Queen Alexandra Stakes, with Coolmore just pipping Godolphin. “With a record 110 entries from Ireland, a large number of them naturally from the Coolmore team, and after the flying start to the year by Godolphin, it looks like the 2018 competition will be just as competitive.” Below can be a found a race-by-race guide to all the Group 1 contests, along with quotes from several of the horses’ connections.
