Enable and Winter top all-star cast for Ascot

STAR fillies Enable and Winter could head an all-star cast for Qipco British Champions Day at Ascot on October 21. The winners of an incredible 83 Group One races and 16 European Classics comprise a glittering array of horses being targeted at Britain’s richest raceday — where £4.3million will be up for grabs. All of the 10 highest-rated horses in Europe hold entries for the meeting, including Investec Oaks and King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes heroine Enable. John Gosden’s exceptional filly, bound for the Yorkshire Oaks at York later this month, is entered in the QIPCO Champion Stakes and QIPCO British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes, while dual Guineas winner and four-time Group One scorer, Winter, also holds the same engagements. Among the other top-class performers entered are Harry Angel, Ribchester and Barney Roy. CHAMPION jockey-elect Silvestre De Sousa reached his century for the season yesterday with a 303-1 treble at Brighton. Wins for the Brazilian runaway title leader, on Al Ozzdi, Overhaugh Street and Whiteley, saw him move to 102 winners for the campaign.
