The Americans

Big Invasion has won 6 stakes in the US and exits a runner-up just 14 days ago in the Grade 1 Jaipur at Belmont. Christophe Clement takes on a massive challenge in Race 3 Saturday, the Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes. He’s hovering around 15 to 20-1 in the British books. Note American-based Undrafted won this event in 2015 at 14-1 odds. The Yanks have a victory in Tuesday’s Queen Mary by Crimson Advocate to boast so far. US interest in the Jubilee also includes the British-based Kinross, last seen when third in the Breeders’ Cup Mile at Keeneland.

The Main Event

The $1 million Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes moves up on the card to Race 3, whereas most Royal Ascot features go as the day’s fourth. The 6-furlong sprint features Australian star Artorius, who is favored around 9-2 with the British bookmakers in a wide-open field of 16. He ran third in this race last year. Highfield Princess returns from just 4 days on the shelf, running second in Tuesday’s King’s Stand and looking to improve on a sixth-place effort in last year’s Jubilee. Kinross makes his seasonal debut and was a smashing course winner here last fall in the British Champions.
