SATURDAY'S ITV RACING TIPS: WETHERBY, ASCOT & MORE
The jumps season is well underway and with a Grade 1 contest and hot handicaps to get stuck into we tackle all the live action on ITV this Saturday. 13:10 WETHERBY Palamon went close in a similar contest at Plumpton when last seen and looks set to go close once more. Considering he represents the Skelton duo of Harry and Dan he’s going to attract market support but he may find one too good once again.

Action from Ascot, Newmarket and Redcar headlines a competitive lineup on ITV this Saturday, and we preview every contest right here. 13:00 NEWMARKET Normally in a two-year-old contest it would be wiser to search for value, especially when the current market favourite is priced at around 4/5 and is already preparing for his seventh career start.

SATURDAY'S ITV RACING TIPS: GOODWOOD & SANDOWN
Action from Sandown and Goodwood with three group races live on ITV this Saturday as pundit Rory Paddock previews all nine races. 13:25 GOODWOOD A two-year-old contest kicks off Saturday's live action and Lily Pink looks likely to head the betting after showing plenty of promise when runner-up on debut.
