FORM ENTRY	HORSE JOCKEY & TRAINER	AGE WGT
1	1. ACCIDENTAL AGENT J: Charles Bishop T: Eve Johnson Houghton	6 9-0
Surprise winner of this in 2018. However, signs of decline last season and refused to race in this 12 months ago. Hard to make a case for.
2	2. BLESS HIM (IRE) J: Callum Shepherd T: David Simcock	6 9-0
Best efforts have come here, winning the Britannia at this in 2017 and when beating Lord North in handicap on final start last season. Easy to forgive comeback run but taking big hike in class.
3	3. CIRCUS MAXIMUS (IRE) J: Ryan Moore T: Aidan O'Brien, Ireland	4 9-0
Very smart 3-y-o last year once dropped in trip. Blinkered first time when winning St James’s Palace at this meeting and bit better still when narrow winner of Prix du Moulin at Longchamp. Big player.
4	4. DUKE OF HAZZARD (FR) J: P. J. McDonald T: Paul & Oliver Cole	4 9-0
Seemed exposed but showed smart form once fitted with blinkers last summer, completing hat-trick in Celebration Mile at Goodwood. Tongue strap back on and warrants respect.
5	5. ESCOBAR (IRE) J: Adam Kirby T: David O'Meara	6 9-0
Ended last season in top form, swooping from off the pace to win Balmoral Handicap over C&D on final start. Not seen to best effect at Newmarket on return but up against it here.
6	6. FOX CHAIRMAN (IRE) J: Silvestre De Sousa T: Andrew Balding	4 9-0
Had only 4 runs last season but was highly progressive. Not seen to best effect when runner-up in Hampton Court at this meeting before landing odds in listed race at Newbury. Remains with potential.
7	7. MARIE'S DIAMOND (IRE) J: Joe Fanning T: Mark Johnston	4 9-0
Better than ever when 4¼-length winner of Newmarket listed race 11 days ago but was seen to maximum advantage in making all against the far rail. Easy to oppose at this level.
8	8. MOHAATHER J: Jim Crowley T: Marcus Tregoning	4 9-0
Looked a classic contender after wins in Horris Hill and Greenham (both at Newbury) but had a setback after latter. Shaped well after 6 months off when fifth in QEII over C&D and still low mileage.
9	9. MUSTASHRY J: Dane O'Neill T: Sir Michael Stoute	7 9-0
Better than ever in 2019, winning Lockinge at Newbury and Group 2 under a penalty at Newmarket. Entitled to go close on those efforts though no real excuse when only seventh in this last year.
10	10. PLUMATIC J: Oisin Murphy T: Francis-Henri Graffard, France	6 9-0
Very smart miler for Andre Fabre and won Group 2 Prix du Muguet at Saint-Cloud from 2 starts last year. Not disgraced when second in Group 3 at Chantilly on return/yard debut. Tongue strap applied.
11	11. ROSEMAN (IRE) J: Andrea Atzeni T: Roger Varian	4 9-0
Unraced at 2 but rapid progress in just 5 starts last year, catching the eye when fifth in Hampton Court at this meeting before easy winner of a listed race at Newmarket. Interesting contender.
12	12. SKARDU J: James Doyle T: William Haggas	4 9-0
Smart 3-y-o last year, winning Craven at Newmarket before third in 2000 Guineas. Best effort when fourth to Circus Maximus in St James’s Palace at this meeting. Bit more needed but not dismissed.
13	13. SPACE TRAVELLER J: Daniel Tudhope T: Richard Fahey	4 9-0
Smart performer who was 25/1 winner of Jersey Stakes at this meeting last year and also successful in Group 2 Boomerang Stakes at Leopardstown. Looks up against it here, though.
14	14. TURJOMAAN (USA) J: David Egan T: Roger Varian	4 9-0
Dual novice winner on AW and coped very well with step up to Group 3 level when ½-length second to Duke of Hazzard at Goodwood (1m) last summer. Should have more to offer but this is a tough ask.
15	15. BILLESDON BROOK J: Sean Levey T: Richard Hannon	5 8-11
Caused a surprise in 1000 Guineas but won 3 times last year, notably Sun Chariot back at Newmarket. Creditable second under penalty in listed race at Kempton on recent return and frame claims.
16	16. TEREBELLUM (IRE) J: Frankie Dettori T: John Gosden	4 8-11
Smart, lightly-raced filly who won twice last year, notably a Group 2 at Deauville. Impressive winning return in Dahlia Stakes (10f) at Newmarket 10 days ago. Unraced at 1m but doesn't lack speed.

Analyst's Verdict

This looks a wide-open renewal with plenty to consider, headed by FOX CHAIRMAN, who was highly progressive in a light campaign as a 3-y-o and a strongly-run mile promises to suit. Terebellum is another fascinating contender dropped in trip having made an impressive winning return in the Dahlia Stakes at Newmarket, with last year's St James's Palace winner Circus Maximus also high on the shortlist.

The race is the curtain raiser on day one of Royal Ascot, and has been won by some of the best horses in recent years, most notably Goldikova, Canford Cliffs and Frankel to name but a few.

Established in 1840, during the early part of its history it was called The Trial Stakes, and was originally open to horses aged three years and older. Then in 1930, the race was renamed the Queen Anne Stakes, in honour of Queen Anne, the founder of Ascot Racecourse.

The race was upgraded to a Group 2 event in 1984, and then in 2003, it was given Group 1 status. It was Dubai Destination that won the first running as a Group 1 contest under Frankie Dettori.

It was also in the Queen Anne that Frankel put up his career-defining performance, his 11-length demolition of Excelebration in 2012 earning him a performance rating of 147, earning the highest Flat rating of any horse in Timeform’s history, surpassing Sea-Bird’s 1965 Arc rating by 2 lb.

Sir Gordon Richards, who was 21 when he won his first Queen Anne and 48 when he claimed his last, is one of the leading riders in the race with a total of six wins. That has since been matched by Frankie Dettori, who also keeps coming back for more, winning his first at 19 years of age and his last – to date – in 2007, at 36.
