Five days filled with intense competitions for the champion title, spectacular wins, and well known stars as well as emerging talents, Royal Ascot is the focal point of the British summer social calendar. This year it will be taking place between Tuesday, 16 June and Saturday, 20 June at its traditional venue of Ascot Racecourse.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ascot Racecourse was founded in 1711 by Queen Anne and has since then enjoyed a close association with the British royal family. It stays open throughout the year for both flat and jump races. It boasts of hosting 3 out of 36 annual Group 1 flat races and three Grade 1 jump races conducted in the UK. Of course, the Ascot Gold Cup is one of the most notable ones among them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year the Royal Ascot week will open with the Queen Anne Stakes as its first race, while the Queen Alexandra Stakes will close the entire event.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The headline races for each day are: St James\u2019s Palace Stakes for day one, Prince of Wales\u2019s Stakes for day two, Gold Cup for day three, Coronation Stakes for day four, and Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes for day five. The Ascot Gold Cup is also the headline race of the entire event.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Royal Ascot 2026 Racecard<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Royal Ascot 2026 will be conducted in the third week of June and last for five days.

It is run over a distance of about 7 furlongs and 213 yards (1,603 metres).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The race was inaugurated in 1834 and was named after the royal residence of the Tudor period. Its very first win was awarded to the chestnut stallion Plenipotentiary on a walkover. Today, it frequently features horses who have previously run in one or more of the prestigious Guineas races: 2,000 Guineas, the Poule d\u2019Essai des Poulains (the French equivalent of the British 2,000 Guineas), or the Irish 2,000 Guineas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the strict upper age limit, each colt only has one chance to win the St James\u2019s Palace Stakes in its racing career. For the same reason, there are no repeated winners registered for this race.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most successful jockey of the race is Michael Kinane who holds 6 wins (Dara Monarch 1982, Brief Truce 1992, Grand Lodge 1994, Giant\u2019s Causeway 2000, Rock of Gibraltar 2002, Azamour 2004).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The renowned Aidan O\u2019Brien holds the record as the trainer with the most wins, currently counting 9 champions (Giants Causeway 2000, Black Minnaloushe 2001, Rock of Gibraltar 2002, Excellent Art 2007, Henrythenavigator 2008, Mastercraftsman 2009, Gleneagles 2015, Circus Maximus 2019, Paddington 2023).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The latest winner in 2025 was a grey colt Field Of Gold. He had previously won the Tattersalls Irish 2,000 Guineas at the Curragh Racecourse (May 2025) and bet365 Craven Stakes at the Newmarket Racecourse (April 2025). He later returned to Ascot in October for the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, but finished fifth. Field Of Gold was trained by John and Thady Gosden and led on the track by jockey Colin Keane.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently, there are 9 runners announced to compete in this year\u2019s race, but this number may change before the day of the race.

It is run over a distance of 1 mile 1 furlong and 212 yards (2,004 metres).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The race was established in 1862 and named after Edward, Prince of Wales, who would go on to become King Edward VII. The race wasn\u2019t conducted since the start of World War II and until 1967, as the British crown didn\u2019t have a Prince of Wales at the time. The race returned in 1968, a year prior to Prince Charles\u2019s (now King Charles III) official investiture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As of today, three horses share the title of the most successful runner, having won the race more than once: Connaught (1969, 1970), Mtoto (1987, 1988), and Muhtarram (1994, 1995), each with two wins.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Morny Cannon holds the title of the jockey with most wins, having brought 6 winning runners to the finish line (Matchmaker 1895, Shaddock 1896, Manners 1899, Simon Dale 1900, Rydal Head 1904, Plum Centre 1905).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The undefeated champion among trainers is John Porter with 8 wins (Ossory 1888, Watercress 1892, Matchmaker 1895, Shaddock 1896, Manners 1899, Simon Dale 1900, Rydal Head 1904, Plum Centre 1905).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The latest winner in 2025 was a 4 year old bay colt Ombudsman.

The current season started with two wins, including the Star Sports Brigadier Gerard Stakes (Sandown Park, May 2026). Ombudsman has already been announced to take part in this year\u2019s race.

It is run over a distance of 2 miles 3 furlongs and 210 yards (4,014 metres).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since its inauguration date in 1807, the Gold Cup has earned the reputation of one of Britain\u2019s most prestigious races for stayers, i.e. horses who specialise in long distance racing. It is unofficially known as the Ladies\u2019 Day of the Royal Ascot and boasts of high fashion and spectacular headpieces at the stalls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While there are a number of horses who won the Ascot Gold Cup two or three times, one runner holds the record of the most successful one with four wins to his credit, and that\u2019s Yeats (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among jockeys, Lester Piggott brought the highest number of winners to the finish line with 11 wins (Zarathustra 1957, Gladness 1958, Pandofell 1961, Twilight Alley 1963, Fighting Charlie 1965, Sagaro 1975, 1976, 1977, Le Moss 1979, Ardross 1981, 1982).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aidan O\u2019Brien is considered the most prolific trainer of the race with 9 wins (Yeats 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, Fame and Glory 2011, Leading Light 2014, Order of St George 2016, Kyprios 2022, 2024).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The latest winner in 2025 was a 7 year old bay gelding Trawlerman. He generally showed a very good form in the season, belting three more wins for a total of four out of the five races he participated in. So far he has run seven times at the Ascot Racecourse, including the latest win in the Qipco British Champions Long Distance Cup in October 2025.

opportunity to bet. If you would like to place a wager on any of the 35 races of the fixture, you can do so on any online bookmaking platform that offers horse racing markets. If you are going to attend the event in person, you can try any of the specialised betting facilities at the venue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember to always practice responsible gambling. To make an informed decision when choosing the runners and markets you want to bet on, analyse recent performances and physical form for both horses and jockeys, see each trainer\u2019s dynamics under the conditions of the race, and select the odds that suit your budget and betting style the best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 7bet, we offer a wide range of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/7bet.co.uk\/betting\/horse-racing\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">horse race betting markets<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> both for domestic and international events.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please note that odds for the Royal Ascot 2026 will be available closer to the event date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Betting at the Royal Ascot 2026 includes various horse betting markets, with some of the most popular ones being:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Win:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> As in any sports betting, this market is the easiest to understand and is often recommended to newbies for gaining experience. As a punter, you are trying to predict how the race will end and who will become the winner. For this, select the horse that in your opinion has the best chances and place your wager on it. If your prediction is correct, you will be eligible for a payout proportional to the offered odds and your stake size.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Place:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> For this betting market you are betting on a horse to come to the finish line within the winning top, or to be placed. This can be anywhere from top two to top four depending on the number of runners at the start of the race and the race type. This information will be announced by the bookmaker before the start. As the horse has a bigger chance to be placed than to win, this bet is lower risk than the previous one. In addition, you don\u2019t have to predict the exact placement, as any place in the winning top will work towards your wager.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Each Way:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This bet became especially popular in online betting. You place two separate stakes on the same horse, one for it to win the race and the other to be placed. While this does double your stake, the payout in case your prediction was correct, brings interesting value. If the horse wins, you get payouts on both the win and the placement wagers. If the horse is placed, you lose the win stake but still get paid on the placement bet.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Forecast\/Tricast:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This bet is placed as a single stake but you are again betting on two (forecast) or three (tricast) horses. For the forecast, you need to predict which two horses will take the first and the second place. This bet can be either straight where you predict the exact order in which the two horses come to the finish line, or reverse where they can finish in any order as long as they both are in top two. Tricast betting follows the exact same principle but adds another horse, so now you are predicting the winner, the second, and the third places. It can also be straight where all three horses have to finish exactly the way you predicted, or combination where they can come to the finish line in any order but stay in the top three. In both bets, if at least one horse falls behind and doesn\u2019t make it into top two or top three, you will lose your wager. This bet is more high risk as it depends on the performance of two (or three) horses, so it is usually recommended for more experienced bettors.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always remember to gamble responsibly and treat betting as a form of entertainment and not means for financial gain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><span style=\"color: #18ae62;\">Betting is only available to participants above 18 years.
