A cracking weekend lays in wait, with first class racing taking place on either side of the Irish Sea. Australia, Tapestry, John F Kennedy, Cursory Glance, Leading Light & Gleneagles will all be in action on Irish soil over the…

A mouth-watering card at York this afternoon will sign off another remarkable Ebor meeting. Our hearts were warmed as local father and daughter, Kevin and Amy Ryan, opened their account in the very first race. We’ve witnessed another dominant display from the brilliantly versatile…

Sunday racing in the UK is often of a very disappointing standard, which has always confused me; fortunately Pontefract hosts a very competitive Listed fillies’ 6f contest at 3.45pm, a welcome relief from Class 6 handicaps!   Whether here purchase generic viagra or other medications, they…

George Wells We have another busy weekend of flat-racing action upon us with Shergar Cup day at Ascot; as well as an excellent card, incuding the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes, at the Curragh on Sunday.

The flat season enters a new phase this weekend and we have our first real opportunity to decipher the strength of the 3 year old middle distance division, as the likes of Taghrooda and Eagle Top take on their elder counterparts in…

By George Wells Last week’s fancy in the Irish Derby, Kingston Hill (11/2), was taken out of the race as the ground remained good-firm. Australia inevitably cruised to victory at cramped odds of 1/8, leading home an Aidan O’Brien 1-2-3. Andrea Atzeni will have undoubtedly been disappointed that…

by George Wells  We have another action packed weekend of racing to look forward to, and this time it’s an Irish feast at the Curragh! Where better to start than taking a look at Saturday’s Group 1 Irish Derby at 5.30pm, and fingers are crossed that the…
