Ascot, Goodwood and York have teamed up to offer bonuses of up to £1million to connections of horses trained outside of Europe who challenge for three of the biggest Group 1 prizes of the British summer.

The British Midsummer Bonus will be available to trainers and owners sending horses for both the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot and the Qatar Sussex Stakes at Goodwood, with the £1m prize secured should the winners of both races hail from the same stable or run in the same colours.
