The Royal Ascot meeting will kick off in style at 2.30 on
Tuesday with the Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes for older milers. Declaration Of War
won the race last year, with US raider Animal Kingdom disappointing as 5/4 favourite.
The years prior to this were filled with class names, most notably with the
victory of the mighty Frankel in 2012, sealing his reputation as the greatest
ever. Will this year throw up a big surprise or an incredible performance? What
we do know is that the Queen Anne is a fantastic opening act for a thrilling
week of racing, so sit back, relax and let the action unfold.
