The flat is back with Doncaster's Lincoln meeting kicking off the UK flat season. ITV broadcasts eight races this Saturday with five from Yorkshire and three from Kempton. Rory Paddock previews every live contest. 13:20 DONCASTER Amo Racing boasts an excellent recent record in this contest and they saddle a pair for this year’s UK Flat season opener. The apparent first string and current market leader Blixen Force makes plenty of appeal, but in a race of this nature, taking

Rory Paddock turns his attention away from the ITV action this Saturday and pinpoints a trio of runners worth following. 16:15 CURRAGH Inventress makes her handicap debut for Paddy Twomey and commands respect, though with an absence of nearly 300 days, she may just need the run and fitness has to be taken on trust. Former course-and-distance winner Titanium ran a solid race when sixth over track and trip last time and, with a 2lb pull in the weights, looks capable of getting

Toby Derby heads to Meydan with the showpiece Dubai World Cup set to ignite the racing landscape this Saturday. He previews all the top-class action and gives his thoughts and best bets across the card. 12:20 MEYDAN - Godolphin Mile Commissioner King bolted up over C&D in a Group 2 last time and, unsurprisingly, heads the market here. However, the run prior tells a slightly different story, he was comprehensively beaten by Mendelssohn Bay. There was no fluke about it either;

Liam Hall previews three races this Friday with selections from Wetherby, Newcastle and Dundalk. 17:22 WETHERBY A Sight To Sea is likely to go off short here after blowing the field apart in an Irish Point, the form of the race has shown holes but with Harry Skelton riding first time up in a bumper the signs are good and the pedigree suggests this lad won't be short of speed. Noble Way was third on debut and likely to be well supported but he didn't look like a true stayer t

Sam King heads to Wolverhampton to pinpoint two runners worth following this Tuesday. 16:24 WOLVERHAMPTON Worlington could take a sizeable step forward on his handicap debut but Quick Turn also makes plenty of appeal. The booking of Rossa Ryan catches the eye and he shaped as though his turn wasn’t far away when fourth over a mile at Southwell last time. He was denied a clear run late on that day and remains capable of better off 1lb lower. QUICK TURN (WIN) 16:55 WOLVERHAMPTO

Matt Polley focuses his attention on the evening’s all-weather card at Wolverhampton. 16:50 WOLVERHAMPTON  Fistral Beach loves it here. He’s in fine form currently, and will be thereabouts. Sioux Warrior has been in good heart of late over six furlongs. He’s hardly a winning machine, but this step up to seven looks a positive. Neptune Legend has had a stint at James Owens yard and did win off a four pound higher mark. He’s back with his former trainer, and the booking of Ross

Kieran McHugh heads to Ireland for his best bets this Sunday with action on the flat at Naas and over jumps at Limerick. 16:02 LIMERICK Perhaps not the best Grade Three you are ever likely to see. Ad Caelum and Slotty Dotty need to find more, which leaves us with two. Uhavemeinstiches has been pretty good, placing behind some smart mares. She fell early in the Leinster National and she could be the form pick. However, You Oughta Know was fancied in the Kerry National before s

Toby Darby picks out two runs set to enter the stalls on Sunday morning that he’s looking to back at Sha Tin. 07:30 SHA TIN In the race before the Derby one of Hong Kong’s rising stars Hot Delight will face his toughest test yet, he travels strongly into his races yet has a potent turn of foot. Cool Boy could well be his biggest threat, he comes here off the back of 3 convincing wins, if either of these two win convincingly they will be well above average. Mickley always runs

Rory Paddock previews all 9 races shown live on ITV this Saturday with action from Newbury, Kelso and Bangor-On-Dee. 13:00 KELSO Listed scorer and top-rated Hollygrove Cha Cha underlined her class with a smooth success in a similar contest last time. This is a slightly bigger field, but arguably lacks the same depth as that recent assignment. Despite shouldering top weight, she sets the clear standard and looks the one they all have to beat. Of the others, Star Walking appea

Rory Paddock previews all the live Friday night ITV action from Wolverhampton. 17:30 WOLVERHAMPTON The Ian Williams-trained Green Team last won on the all-weather in March of last year, with both victories on an artificial surface coming here at Wolverhampton and both under this jockey Billy Loughnane. Racing off an attractive mark there's plenty in his favour. GREEN TEAM (E/W) 18:00 WOLVERHAMPTON Marry The Night has won three of their last four starts and as such demands pl

Liam Hall previews the best of the action this Friday with selections from Musselburgh and Dundalk. 15:22 MUSSELBURGH Light Fandango bolted up last time at Doncaster, his only blips have come on soft ground so should continue to thrive on the better ground he'll find up in Scotland but has another 6lb rise to improve to in a deeper contest. The value looks to be Star Of Guiting, loves it over this CD including a win in the very competitive Scottish County Hurdle, Pulled up re

Alan Morris previews action from Sedgefield and Newcastle this Thursday as he pinpoints his two best bets. 15.40 SEDGEFIELD A King Of Magic has been progressing well and beat a next time out winner last time in contrast to a couple of previous winners here who need to bounce back. He will need to be ridden closer to the pace if he can lay up, but Paul Nicholls is five from five at Sedgefield in the last two seasons and his conditional jockey has good experience of this uniqu
