For the Royal Ascot 2006 running order, the only change to the order of running from 2005 is that the Windsor Castle Stakes and the Chesham Stakes
switch places, with the former now run on Tuesday and the latter on Saturday, so reverting to the format
at Ascot in 2004.
Due to the realignment of the course and implementation of the new Stereline Stalls, there are some minor
reductions in maximum field sizes but not the Royal Ascot 2006 running order:
6f (28 from 30);
7f (29 from 30);
1m Straight (30 from 32);
1m Round
(28 from 30);
10f (16 from 18);
1½m (19 from 20);
2m 6f (30 from 32).
The remaining safety limits remain
unchanged. The Queen Alexandra Stakes, formerly 2m about 6f, is now 2m about 5f 159y and the Queen's Vase
is reduced by 45y to about 2m.
