Champions Day concluded with major upsets. Hitherto unbeaten Baaeed could muster only fourth in his finale, as Bay Bridge returned with a vengeance in the Champion, and Bayside Boy sprang a surprise in the Queen Elizabeth II.

Superstar Baaeed looks to go a perfect 11-for-11 in his swan song in Saturday’s Champion (G1) at Ascot, the anchor of five major stakes on the eponymous Champions Day program.

Another sensational Royal Ascot is in the books. With sunny skies making for good-to-firm going, the tricky soft-ground variable was eliminated, and the results were generally logical.

The Platinum Jubilee S. (G1) served as feature event on closing day of Royal Ascot, and it didn’t disappoint with a thrilling drive to the finish line.

Irish raider A Case of You turned the tables on odds-on favorite Man of Promise in Saturday’s $1.5 million Al Quoz Sprint (G1) at Meydan.

Three Group 1 races and a Group 2, with prizemoney ranging from $1 million to $6 million, highlight a strong turf card on Dubai World Cup Day.

Jockey Christophe Lemaire opened Saudi Cup Day with a triple aboard Japanese shippers in the turf races. Neom Turf Cup favorite Authority and Red Sea Turf H. outsider Stay Foolish benefited from enterprising frontrunning rides, while Songline rallied with a perfectly-timed move in the 1351 Turf Sprint.

The rich Saudi Cup program includes three turf stakes, all upgraded to international Group 3 status for Saturday. The 1351 Turf Sprint caters to the speed brigade, the Neom Turf Cup suits the middle-distance types, and the Red Sea Turf H. is a prize for stayers.

The third time was the charm for Dream of Dreams in Saturday’s Diamond Jubilee S. (G1) on closing day at Royal Ascot.

Saturday’s final day of Royal Ascot features three Group races, with the Diamond Jubilee S. (G1) the main attraction. The six-furlong prize is part of the Breeders’ Cup Challenge series, offering a fees-paid spot in the Turf Sprint (G1) at Del Mar.
