5 flat races to look forward to this Autumn

Goodwood Cup winner Stradivarius is the best of the rest at 9/2 with Coral.

Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe

Europe’s most prestigious horse race could be a runaway victory for Enable.

The three-year-old has blitzed all in Group One company this season. And it’s difficult to see the Even-chance fancy getting beat at Longchamp. John Gosden’s charge looks unstoppable at the moment and is a worthy favourite for the race.

Cracksman is next best at 8/1 while the Japanese Satono Diamond is 9/1.

Qipco Queen Elizabeth II Stakes

The impressive trio of Ribchester, Churchill and Winter look primed to battle it out over 1m at Ascot.

It’s Ribchester that is the fancy ante-post at 7/2. The Irish-bred raider loves racing over a mile and won convincingly on his appearance at Royal Ascot in the Queen Anne Stakes. Three-year-old Churchill is an obvious danger at 7/1. His trainer Aiden O’Brien has won this renewal four times and claimed last year’s prize with Minding.

However, Coral’s tip is Winter, also at 7/1. The three-year-old has proved consistent over course and distance. If she’s put forward for the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes she should be given serious consideration.

Qipco Champion Stakes

It’s a tight field for the Champion Stakes with eight runners all priced at 10/1 or under ante-post. It’s Ulysses who’s the market leader at 4/1. Churchill (4/1) and Barney Roy (5/1) follow close behind.

Should those three line-up, it would be a repeat of the Juddmonte International Stakes at the York Ebor Festival. Ulysses won that day and is liked to repeat the feat on 21 October.

Sir Michael Stoute’s three-year-old has been imperious this season. Over his favourite distance of 1m2f it should come as no surprise that he’s the market favourite.
