TV TIPS (SATURDAY)
A tough day for punters this Saturday, with plenty of competitive races hitting the ITV screens, yet we cover each contest and give our best bets. 13:25 NEWBURY Mount Atlas and Tabletalk renew their rivalry after being separated by just a head when last seen, with the Andrew Balding-trained Mount Atlas narrowly coming out on top off level weights. The pair should be closely matched once again, although Tabletalk is now 3lbs better off and could be capable of reversing that f

GLORIOUS GOODWOOD - DAY 5 (SATURDAY)
It's the curtain call on the five-day meeting as Glorious Goodwood draws to a close with seven races to get stuck into. The team dissects all the action here. 13:50 GOODWOOD The opening race on the final day of the 2026 Qatar Goodwood Festival brings together another competitive field, with last year's renewal having gone the way of Sam Hawkins under Tom Marquand. One major factor to consider is the ground. Twelve months ago the race was run on good to soft, whereas this yea

GLORIOUS GOODWOOD - DAY 4 (FRIDAY)
The penultimate day of this five-day meeting is upon us and the team continues to analyse each of Friday's races. 13:50 GOODWOOD Northumberland Vase winner Believeitanducan has done nothing wrong this season, winning all three of his starts. This represents a step up in class, but the booking of William Buick catches the eye and another bold showing looks likely. The additional weight is a concern, however, and could leave him vulnerable to something better treated. Defiantl

GLORIOUS GOODWOOD - DAY 3 (THURSDAY)
As we enter the halfway stage of this illustrious meeting, the Racing Daily team tackles all the action with each race shown on Thursday. 13:50 GOODWOOD Ciarri Abu was almost an unlucky loser at Ascot a fortnight ago, only just holding on by a nose after hanging in the closing stages. The step up in trip looks likely to unlock further improvement and previous course-winning form is another positive. Bourbon Blues failed to fire when dropping back to a mile last time and there

GLORIOUS GOODWOOD - DAY 2 (WEDNESDAY)
After bagging a few winners on the opening day the team return to tackle Wednesday's action from this illustrious festival. 13:50 GOODWOOD Several of the highest-rated entries have defected to Thursday's Gordon Stakes, but this still looks an intriguing contest featuring a number of promising and unexposed three-year-olds. Cannes was a well-backed favourite at Royal Ascot but never featured after being marooned in a high draw. Joseph O'Brien's colt is entitled to another cha

GLORIOUS GOODWOOD - DAY 1 (TUESDAY)
The team previews all the action from the opening day of Glorious Goodwood. 13:50 GOODWOOD Irish raider Diego El Queso has improved with each start this season and has done little wrong in 2026. Further progress is required if he's to take this, but the market appears to have latched onto him and he makes limited appeal from a value perspective. Quai De Bethune has produced only modest efforts so far but has shown enough ability on both starts to suggest there's more to come

TV TIPS (SATURDAY)
Live action on our ITV screens this Saturday comes from Ascot and York where the showpiece race of the day is the internationally start studded Group 1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes. 13:30 YORK Although the scene of the action is one of the UK’s premier flat racecourses its national hunt jockeys that take centre stage in the opener at York. The annual ‘Jump Jockeys Nunthorpe’ sees riders most know for their prowess over obstacles team up with horses with raw sprinti

TV TIPS (FRIDAY)
Rory Paddock returns to preview all the best action on ITV with racing from Newmarket and York this Friday. 13:50 NEWMARKET Decade Of Time and Heraldry renew their rivalry after finishing first and second respectively at Windsor back in May. Both now make their handicap debuts and, with Heraldry receiving a much more favourable pull at the weights, the John and Thady Gosden-trained colt could be capable of reversing that previous form. William Haggas saddles Princling, who p

TV TIPS (THURSDAY)
We have live ITV action from Newmarket with additional races up at Doncaster. All six races are previewed here in our 'TV Tips' as pundit Rory Paddock aims to bash the bookies. 13:50 NEWMARKET Del Maro, Point Of Law and Galiyan renew their rivalry after finishing second, fourth and sixth respectively in the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot, and the trio look set to dominate proceedings once again in what appears a less demanding assignment. Del Maro emerged with the strongest pie

The Northumberland Plate takes centre stage on ITV Racing this Saturday and pundit previews all the live action from Newcastle and York. 13:40 NEWCASTLE A step up to seven furlongs appeared to spark improvement from five-year-old Sergeant Wilko, who went close in a weaker contest at Thirsk last time out. He returns to a venue where he has tasted success before and now races from a mark below his last winning rating. The slight concern is his wider draw, but on Newcastle's st

ROYAL ASCOT - DAY 1 (TUESDAY)
It's the opening day of the five-day festival as we prepare to see some of the best flat horses in the world line up for Royal Ascot 2026. The team previews every race on Tuesday. 14:30 ASCOT Notable Speech holds obvious claims on the back of his clear-cut success over More Thunder in the Lockinge Stakes. Charlie Appleby’s classy miler sets the standard, but there’s a suspicion he’s not at his very best at Ascot, so it could be worth chancing his progressive stablemate Oper

CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL 2026 - FRIDAY
13:20 CHELTENHAM I’m not convinced any trainer should have nine of a field of twenty, even if it’s not handicap skullduggery but Willie Mullins sets us a poser within the race here. The impressive-looking Proactif looked strong and professional in winning his second start and first for the Closutton maestro. Highland Crystal and Tuesday’s smart winner Saratoga pulled well clear at Naas and with the fillies’ allowance she looks good each-way value though she is one of a few wh

Six races grace the ITV screens this Boxing Day including the prestigious King George VI Chase from Kempton. We preview all the live action right here. 12:45 KEMPTON Trainer Nicky Henderson looks set to have potentially a belting Boxing Day here at Kempton and it could all kick into life in the opener. He sends out Noble Park who's done little wrong in winning his last two starts. Looks set to continue his unbeaten record as a chaser. Of the remainder Barlovento deserves an o
