Queen Anne Stakes: Unbeaten Baaeed faces six in Royal Ascot opener; Noble Style out of Coventry

Baaeed is unbeaten in eight starts and will face six rivals in Tuesday's Queen Anne Stakes. William Haggas' charge won the Lockinge at Newbury last month. Accidental Agent was a shock winner of the race back in 2018 for Eve Johnston Houghton. Aidan O'Brien's Order Of Australia and the Sir Michael Stoute-trained Lights On complete the line up. Coroebus leads 13 contenders for the St James's Palace Stake.

Golden Pal, Nature Strip, Ponntos, Kings Lynn, Twilight Calls, Man Of Promise, Khaadem, Henry Candy, and the Paul and Oliver Cole inmate Royal Scotsman are the other international runners for the King's Stand Stakes. O'Brien will be double-handed in the Coventry Stake with unbeaten Group Three winner Blackbeard and recent Curragh scorer Age Of Kings.

Noble Style won't run in Coventry Stakes because of unsatisfactory blood results. Proschema tops the weights for the 20-strong Ascot Stake. Alounak and Raymond Tusk share the honours in the Copper Horse Staking. Juan Elcano defends his Wolferton Stakers title.
