On a thrilling Saturday, July 27, 2019, at Ascot, Enable, a 5-year-old mare, under jockey Frankie Dettori, outduelled Crystal Ocean to win the 69th King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes by a neck.
Enable, owned by Prince Khalid Abdullah and trained by John Gosden, bagged her 12th race in 13 starts - 11th consecutively. A bay daughter of Nathaniel out of Concentric, by Sadler's Wells, Enable, a two-time Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe girl, is now a two-timer of the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes.
As part of the benefits of the Breeders' Cup Challenge series, Breeders' Cup will pay entry fees for Enable, who won last year's Longines Breeders' Cup Turf at Churchill Downs. Additionally, a handsome $40,000 travel allowance for all starters based outside of North America to compete in the World Championships, is being handed out.
