Today’s QIPCO Champion Stakes at Leopardstown has the potential to be as good a flat race as we’ve seen in this country for many a year and, in what should be a tight affair, Golden Horn is narrowly preferred to Free Eagle and Gleneagles.

Glorious Goodwood has been robbed of one of its highlights as Gleneagles bypasses tomorrow’s Qatar Sussex Stakes due to unsuitable ground.

Gleneagles can get the Irish off to a flyer on the opening day of Royal Ascot. Aidan O’Brien’s dual classic winner is an odds-on favourite for the St James’s Palace Stakes.

Sole Power bids to cap an amazing season by adding the Betfred Sprint Cup to his impressive record at Haydock today.
