Racing: Frankel camp unfazed by Ascot going

The possibility of soft ground at Ascot on Saturday is not occupying the minds of the Frankel team as they prepare for his swansong in the Qipco Champion Stakes.

Sir Henry Cecil's superstar is bidding to sign off with win No.14 in a Group 1 race that Cecil has claimed twice in the past three years with Twice Over.

Cirrus Des Aigles struck in this race 12 months ago and the French challenger will return to England to defend his title.
