All five Group One races on British Champions Day have had runners supplemented into the field on Monday.

Ombudsman benefited from a pacemaker when beating Delacroix in the Juddmonte International Stakes. The two will square off again in the Champion Stakes on Saturday, with Calandagan also featuring in an excellent field, and the Gosden's have opted to add another potential pacemaker, Devil's Advocate, into the Champions Day field.

Andre Fabre has also chosen to supplement First Look into the Champion Stakes. Fabre's four-year-old saw off a decent field when landing the Prix Dollar during the Arc Meeting, and Wathnan Racing have stumped up the £75k supplementary fee.

Wathnan were busy on Monday, adding One Look into the Champion Fillies' & Mares' Stakes. Paddy Twomey's filly has placed behind Barnavara on her two most recent starts, and will step up to a mile-and-a-half for the first time at Ascot.

The most interesting supplementary entry comes in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, where Marvelman will now represent Andrew Balding. Balding's three-year-old romped to an impressive victory in the Park Stakes on his most recent outing at Doncaster, and will now line up against Field Of Gold, Rosallion and Fallen Angel in an excellent QEII.

Two new names have been thrust into the Champions Sprint. George Boughey now runs Rosy Affair, with Rayevka supplemented into the contest by Francis-Henri Graffard. Aidan O'Brien has also opted to supplement Stay True into the Long Distance Cup, where he'll tackle reigning Ascot Gold Cup winner, Stay True.
