The King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot is one of the season’s biggest contests for middle-distance horses.
It’s a meeting between the best of the Classic generation and their leading older rivals, and there is plenty of dosh on the line as winning connections will take home a tidy £708,875.
Pyledriver beat a number of high-profile rivals to claim the biggest victory of his career in last year’s renewal, and a successful return to the track in last month’s Hardwicke Stakes over course and distance after a lengthy lay-off should have the defending champion in fine fettle.
You can run the rule over our King George VI odds on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise all the key details about this year’s renewal can be found below.

Hukum is next in our betting after posting a career-best effort to beat Desert Crown in the Brigadier Gerard Stakes.
King Of Steel can be found towards the head of our market as the Epsom Derby second bids to reverse the form with Auguste Rodin following a scintillating display in the King Edward VII Stakes.
Emily Upjohn is also prominent in our betting after opening her account for the season in fine style in the Coronation Cup before narrowly going down to Paddington in the Coral-Eclipse.
