Commonwealth Cup prize goes to Eqtidaar Eqtidaar clung on for victory in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot.

Old Persian takes King Edward VII spoils at Royal Ascot Old Persian was a clear-cut winner of the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Idaho ship-shape for Crystal Ocean clash in Hardwicke Stakes It is rare for Aidan O’Brien to be heading into a race as an underdog but that is the case in the Hardwicke Stakes, where Idaho takes on Crystal Ocean. The five-year-old son of Galileo has been a real globetrotter and appears to have taken over the mantle of his brother, Highland Reel, who represent
Sutton Manor spearheads strong cast for Gowran feature The Ashgrove Stables Jack Duggan Memorial Handicap Hurdle is the most valuable race on a bumper eight-race card at Gowran Park on Saturday.

Redkirk Warrior ready for battle in Diamond Jubilee Stakes It is six years since Black Caviar won the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot and the eyes of Australia are this time on Redkirk Warrior.

Quartet declared for Limerick highlight Only four go to post for the Ballyduane Stud Race at Limerick but it is a tight little heat.

Clemmie ‘has come forward since the Guineas’, says Aidan O’Brien There may be three individual 1000 Guineas winners in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot on Friday, but some bookmakers are making Aidan O’Brien’s Clemmie the favourite.

Aidan O’Brien trio tested in King Edward VII Stakes Aidan O’Brien is triple-handed as he bids for an overdue success in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot on Friday.

O’Brien adds to Royal Ascot double with Spanish Point at Leopardstown Following on from his brace at Royal Ascot earlier trainer Aidan O’Brien added to his tally after striking in the Leopardstown “Club 30” Maiden with Spanish Point.

Shang Shang Shang strikes Norfolk gold at Royal Ascot Shang Shang Shang clung on grimly to provide Wesley Ward with another Royal Ascot success in the Norfolk Stakes.
