There are five fixtures in Britain and Ireland to kick-start a week when much of the focus will centre on Saturday's King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes.

We will have a clearer idea of who might take on 2017 winner Enable at Ascot with the five-day confirmations published around lunchtime, after which Ayr and Cartmel stage afternoon fixtures.

If it's Monday, it has to be Windsor and the royal course provides the evening action alongside Beverley and Ballinrobe.
