Clare Balding and Willie Carson are at Ascot for racing's mid-summer highlight, the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes. The role of honour includes racing greats such as Nijinsky, Dancing Brave and Galileo. Johnny Murtagh bids to become the first jockey to win the race three times in a row after wins on Dylan Thomas in 2007 and Duke Of Marmalade in 2008. Race analysis comes from Rishi Persad and Kevin Darley, with news and interviews from around the course with roving reporter Dan Walker. Ian Bartlett and Gary Wiltshire will be on hand in the betting ring and race commentary comes from Jim McGrath.
