French ace Calandagan, Coronation Cup winner Jan Brueghel, globetrotter Rebel’s Romance and star filly Kalpana headline the confirmations for next Saturday's King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot.

Worth a record £1.5 million this year, the 12-furlong midsummer highlight is Britain’s richest all-aged contest and the most valuable race ever run at Ascot.
