Qipco British Champions Day: Freddy Tylicki's runner-by-runner guide and expert verdict to Ascot Group One

The Queen Elizabeth II Stakes is taking place at Ascot on Qipco British Champions Day. The Revenant, Modern Games and Jadoomi are the favourites. Freddy Tylicki gives his runner-by-runner guide and expert verdict to the race.

Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum's colt won the Listed Dee Stakes last year and the French Derby this year. He finished second to Mutasaabeq in the Joel Stake.

James Doyle's horse won on Irish Champions Day. It was only his fourth start of the season. He has connections. He's all a jockey could ask for: uncomplicated and all heart.

Billy Lee won the Irish Lincolnshire on his first start for Johnny Murtagh this year. Billy Lee is a first runner for Amo Racing in the QEII.

Archie Watson has improved from a rating of 97 to 117 this season. Hollie Doyle has won four times on him so far. Archie Watson finished third in the Dubai Joel Stakes last time.

Ryan Moore and Francis-Henri Graffard are going to race on Saturday. Ryan Moore won this in 2020. Francis Henri Grafard won the Prix Daniel Wildenstein on Arc weekend last time out.

Tom Marquand and Roger Varian are big runners for Team Valley & Ballylinch Stud. Native Trail finished third in Dewhurst and Luxembourg in the Vertem Futurity Stakes last season. Headgear was applied last time and a drop in grade worked a treat to get his confidence back up by winning the Listed Chasemore Farm Fortune Stake at Sandown.

The Fast Company colt was bought by Richard Knight, brother of William, for 35,000gns at the yearling auction and won the Group Three Prix Daphnis. He took on Erevann and The Revenant last time at ParisLongchamp and finished third.

Dubawi won the Grade One Mile Stakes last time at Woodbine. Baaeed finished second to the mighty Baeeed in the Sussex Stake. Charlie Appleby is the only Breeders' Cup winner here today.

Clarehaven's champion two-year-old filly has made up for missing the Classics with her early in the year. She won the Coronation Stakes on her reappearance run after 252 days off the track.

Freddy Tylicki is in the Inspiral camp. Modern Games and The Revenant are high-profile runners. Jadoomi could run a big race if the rain comes for him.
