Fourteen speedsters run in the Group 1 6F Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes which it has to be said doesn’t look the classiest of renewals. Kinross is the joint highest runner among with Art Power in the race but we haven’t seen him this season and along with Art Power would prefer more give in the ground. Last year’s shock winner Khaadem has his conditions but showed little on his reappearance at York in May to suggest he can play a hand in the finish today. That York race was won by Jane Chapple-Hyam’s Mill Stream who looks a player today although better value may lie with the third that day in Kevin Ryan’s Washington Heights who didn’t get the run of the race but still finished within half a length of Mill Stream having beaten him 3/4L previously at Newmarket in the Abernant Stakes. The supplemented Shartash also has claims but in a open race it may pay to back Washington Heights each way.

Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes Overview

Originally established in 1868, the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes is a race that is decorated with a lot of history and plenty of name changes. The initial name of the race was the All-Aged Stakes but this changed to the Cork and Orrery Stakes in 1926 as a tribute to the 9th Earl of Cork, who was Master of the Buckhounds in the 19th century.

The race was classed as a Group 3 contest when the current race classification system was introduced in 1971. However, it was upgraded to Group 2 in 1998. The race then underwent several name changes over the ensuing years to mark Queen Elizabeth II’s Golden Jubilee (2002), Diamond Jubilee (2012), and then the Platinum Jubilee (2022).

In 2023, the race was given its current name the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes to honour the late Queen and her Jubilee celebrations down the years. It has held Group 1 status since 2002 and is considered one of the highlights of Royal Ascot.
