Sir Henry Cecil’s unbeaten colt Frankel features among the entries for both the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes and the Qipco Champion Stakes at Ascot on October 15.

The phenomenal 2000 Guineas winner was perhaps not quite so explosive when following up in the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot, but he silenced any doubters by annihilating Canford Cliffs in last week’s Sussex Stakes at Goodwood.

The three-year-old is among 31 entries for the one-mile Qipco-sponsored QEII, with Canford Cliffs once again a possible rival.

Other interesting contenders include brilliant French mare Goldikova and the Aidan O’Brien-trained pair Await The Dawn and So You Think.
