Royal Ascot wrapped up on Saturday with a mix of blowout victories and dramatic head-to-head battles. Three group stakes, including an exciting renewal of the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee (G1), led the action.

Wheeling back 12 days after taking the Prix Maurice de Gheest (G1), and shortening up to five furlongs, were no problem for Highfield Princess, who turned a quick Group 1 double in Friday’s Nunthorpe (G1) at York.

All-conquering at a mile, Baaeed ventures up in trip for the first time in Wednesday’s Juddmonte International (G1) at about 1 5/16 miles at York. The feature on opening day of the Ebor Festival is one of three Breeders’ Cup Challenge events at the meeting.
