The meeting takes place over five days – Tuesday to Saturday – at the iconic Ascot Racecourse in Ascot, England, around an hour outside of London. Across the five days of racing in 2026, there will be a total of thirty-five races, with the pick of the action being Thursday’s Ascot Gold Cup. Thursday is the meeting’s most famous and popular day.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eBecause of Ascot’s royal connections, and more specifically, the prestige of Royal Ascot, every day of the meeting begins with a royal procession, where members of the Royal Family in attendance will arrive. As Britain’s richest race meeting, Royal Ascot attracts leading flat horses, with Group 1 races and millions of pounds in prize money to be won.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\" style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003ePopular Races\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eAs the crown jewel in the British flat racing calendar, Royal Ascot hosts a number of iconic races that draw global attention every June. Among those is the prestigious Ascot Gold Cup, run on Ladies’ Day (Thursday), which is the highlight for stayers over two and a half miles. Its winners often become household names, with legends like Stradivarius and Yeats achieving multiple victories.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eThe Queen Anne Stakes, which traditionally kicks off the five-day meeting on Tuesday, is another fans’ favourite. A Group 1 mile contest for older horses, it’s another race that has a history of producing star performances from top milers such as Frankel. Also, on Tuesday is the King’s Stand Stakes, now the King Charles III Stakes, a five-furlong sprint that attracts elite-level speedsters from around the world.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eOn Saturday, the Diamond Jubilee Stakes, now the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes, stands out as one of the top sprint races of the season, often featuring strong international contenders.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eThe Prince of Wales’s Stakes on Wednesday is also a hugely anticipated race, with high-quality middle-distance horses lining up for a crack at Group 1 glory. Collectively, these races embody Royal Ascot’s rich tradition, top-tier competition, and appeal for punters, owners, and racegoers alike.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"toc_title":"","title":"\u003ch2 class=\"bvs-h2\"\u003eRoyal Ascot Betting Markets\u003c/h2\u003e","content":"\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eAs one of the most famous horse racing meetings in the world and the richest in Britain, there are multiple ways to bet on the meeting, which begins on mid June.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\" style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eOutright Winner Market\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eThe winner market is the most popular among punters when it comes to Royal Ascot. As there are a total of thirty-five races over the five-day meeting (Tues-Sat), selecting the winner of a race or races on a day or across multiple days is the way many punters choose to go.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eAn example of this would be placing a wager on Illinois to win the Ascot Gold Cup on Ladies’ Day (Thursday), the most popular day of the meeting.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\" style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eEach Way Betting\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003ePlacing an each way bet on a horse, or horses, means the runner(s) only have to place for the punter to receive a return. This is a betting market often explored if there’s a large field of runners or if the bettor likes a horse at a big price but isn’t confident they can win the race.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eIt’s worth noting that an each way bet is two bets in one, so a £10.00 each way bet would be a £20.00 wager. Using the Ascot Gold Cup as an example, Jan Brueghel, currently priced at 20/1*, would be the type of price some would back each way.

This can lead to some excellent returns due to the difficulty of choosing the horses that will finish first and second. It’s also possible to do a reverse forecast, which means selecting the horses that will finish first or second in any order. Tricasts are also available when the field is large enough.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\" style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eMultiples Betting\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eMultiples betting has become more popular over time. It’s essentially a bet that contains multiple legs, such as a treble, fourfold, Lucky 15, or an accumulator. The important thing to remember when utilising a bet with multiple legs is whether all legs have to end in a positive result. And, the more bets inside the overall bet, the more the total stake will be. A Lucky 15, for example, is a bet that contains fifteen bets.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"toc_title":"","title":"\u003ch2 class=\"bvs-h2\"\u003eHorse Racing Betting\u0026nbsp;\u003c/h2\u003e","content":"\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eHorse racing is one of the most popular sports in the world, and you will find full coverage at BetVictor \u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/sports\"\u003esportsbook\u003c/a\u003e, where there are \u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/sports/364\"\u003ehorse racing odds\u003c/a\u003e for the big race meetings and the smaller ones, domestically and internationally.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\"\u003eAt BetVictor, you will find \u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/pages/horse-racing/king-george-vi-chase-betting\"\u003eKing George VI Chase betting\u003c/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/pages/horse-racing/arc-de-triomphe\"\u003ePrix De L’Arc de Triomphe odds\u003c/a\u003e, among other races and meetings.\u003c/p\u003e"}]}
