Enable will face King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes runner-up Crystal Ocean in Saturday's September Stakes at Kempton in one of the most anticipated Flat races ever held at the track.

Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe heroine Enable is generally 4-7 to triumph on her first start of the season, with Crystal Ocean as big as 15-8.

And while Enable will be reunited with regular jockey Frankie Dettori, Crystal Ocean will be ridden for the first time by David Probert, with usual rider Ryan Moore heading to Haydock instead.
