The 2025 Qipco British Champions Day runners, ahead of Saturday’s big Ascot card, are starting to take shape – so we list the entries after the latest declaration stage, plus showcase the betting and look back at the winners of last year’s Group One races.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Qipco British Champions Day Runners 2025: Ascot Entries For All Five Group One Races\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Twelve months ago, Qipco British Champions Day<\/a> saw three winning favourites from the six races and this year there’s an extra race with a Two-Year-Old Conditions contest added as the opening race.<\/p>\n

This has turned the 2025 meeting into a seven-race card – getting underway at 12:55pm, with the last race at 4:40pm.<\/p>\n

Horse racing fans are also starting to get a better picture of the Champions Day runners after the latest declaration stage has also included several supplemented horses for certain races (see below).<\/p>\n

The big headline race is always the Champion Stakes (4:05pm) and this year’s renewal is set to be one of the best in modern times with European middle-distance heavyweights Ombudsman, Delacroix and Calandagan set to do battle over the 1m2f trip.<\/p>\n

With all seven races set to be shown on the ITV Racing schedule<\/a> we are set for a bumper afternoon of action on Saturday.<\/p>\n

12:55 \u2013 Qipco British Champions Long Distance Cup (Group 1) Cl1 (3yo+) 2m ITV<\/strong><\/h3>\n

No Kyprios to deal with this year, so the 2023 Long Distance Cup winner Trawlerman will be all the rage to win the first Group One on the card for a second time.<\/p>\n

The race has seen five winning favourites since 2017 and Trawlerman’s trainer John Gosden has a fine record with four wins.<\/p>\n

He also trains likely second favorite Sweet William, so will be a warm order to move one step closer to the record haul of Barry Hills (7 wins).<\/p>\n
