28 July
KING GEORGE VI AND QUEEN ELIZABETH STAKES AT ASCOT
This event has long been regarded as Europe’s premier midseason middle-distance championship race for horses of both sexes and all ages. Ribot, Nijinsky and Mill Reef are just some of the names to have lit up this race in the past. Race-goers can opt for fine dining or organise their own picnic. www.ascot.co.uk
