British Champions Day has been one of the big highlights on the UK calendar since 2011, with the "Ultimate Raceday" signalling the end of the season for British flat racing.

Ascot plays host to what is the richest day in Britain in October with over £4million in prize money on offer across the card. 

There are six races in total, having taken historic races from the previously traditional end-of-season meetings at both Ascot and Newmarket to represent finals of the five divisions of the British Champions Series, as well as a valuable one-mile handicap race to close out the action.
