Notable Speech heads a field of 40 entered for the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO)

The richest mile race in Europe has deservedly received strong entries for the contest with Notable Speech, winner of two QIPCO British Champions Series races over the season so far, a leading contender. The Godolphin three-year-old has won both the QIPCO 2000 Guineas and the Sussex Stakes this season.  

Last year’s winner Big Rock has also been entered by Maurizio Guarnieri in France, who took over training the horse earlier this year. Facteur Cheval, second in the race last year, has been entered by Jerome Reynier (he has also received an entry in the QIPCO Champion Stakes) and the Mario Baratti-trained Metropolitan is another key French entry. 

Charyn won the Queen Anne Stakes, the first race of this year’s Royal Ascot, for Roger Varian and is a likely runner in France this weekend. He is Varian’s sole entry in the race. 

Fallen Angel, who was a winter favourite for the QIPCO 1000 Guineas, has also received an entry. She hasn’t been seen on a racecourse since her win in the Irish 1000 Guineas, having sustained an injury, but it is positive to see her entered for the race.
