Stamp Of Authority to bounce back at Kempton Park
There is a decent card at Kempton Park this evening and in the Get Svens Inside Track At BetVictor Maiden, hope you enjoy our new TV ad, I am not surprised to see Stamp Of Authority (5.45) drop back in trip having pulled hard and failed to get home over an additional furlong here last month.
Gorsky Island favoured for Boyne Cup at Ludlow
There is an excellent midweek card at Ludlow today due to be run on perfect, good to soft, jumping ground.

Still no sign of star two milers as Sacre misses Sandown
There’s something of a surreal feel to the ante-post market for the Queen Mother Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival in March. Neither of the two market leaders having been seen this season, and there are significant fitness and health questions to answer for both the former champion Sprinter Sacre, and current title holder Sire de Grugy.
Juvenile Hurdle kicks off second day of Newbury’s Hennessy meeting

Wonderful Wetherby card tops off a fantastic Wednesday

Competitive Tuesday jumps card from Sedgefield

National Jockey Day to Launch on November 22
When thinking of horse racing, our minds avert to the daring outfits, big hats, bright colours, and of course the beautiful horses. But what’s often overlooked is that, each day, jockeys get up at the crack of dawn to train, drive hundreds of miles to their races and put themselves in constant danger of injury – all to ensure they are performing at the highest level and taking the sport we love to new heights.
Quite By Chance has shown enough to win at Wincanton
A decent midweek card from Wincanton and Un Anjou can race from the same mark as when worn down close home at Worcester last time.

Champagne Fever may be too much for Sizing Europe
