Saturday’s Champions Day at Ascot is one of the premier flat race days of the season, where some of the best horses from Britain, Ireland and France come together for a lucrative day of horse racing. But just how much Champions Day Ascot prize money is on offer to each of the six winning horses?

Over £2.3m In Champions Day Ascot Prize Money For The Winning Horses

Ascot’s six-race Champions Day card will be covered by ITV Racing – with the free-to-air channel showing ALL the Saturday races LIVE that have a total of £2.3m in winning prize money.

The 3 year-old was last seen winning the Irish Champions Stakes in gutsy fashion – seeing off the 2023 Derby winner Auguste Rodin (watch below). Economics will be bidding to become the first horse since Magical in 2019 to win both the Irish and British Champions Stakes in the same season.

This son of Night Of Thunder will face a stern test from the French-trained Calandagan, who was last seen running this year’s Epsom Derby City Of Troy to a length in the Juddmonte International at York at the end of August.

While the Aidan O’Brien runner – Los Angeles, who was last seen running third in the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, makes the race even more of a ‘must-see’ event.
