Re: Horse Racing
Hillstar added to King George.

Hillstar has, as expected, been supplemented for the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot on Saturday.
Sir Michael Stoute's three-year-old claimed the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot last month and owner Sir Evelyn de Rothschild has stumped up the required £75,000 to add him to the field for the midsummer highlight.
Stoute is bidding for a record sixth King George triumph and Hillstar is one of 11 confirmations, with ante-post favourite St Nicholas Abbey one of three possible runners for Aidan O'Brien. The master of Ballydoyle also has Chamonix and Ernest Hemingway in the reckoning.
