Today's racing takes place at Newmarket, Wetherby and Uttoxeter, but there is simulcast racing from Belmont Park in the USA as well.
Meanwhile, reigning champion jockey Paul Hanagan took another step to retaining his title with a double at Redcar yesterday.
With less than a fortnight of the turf season remaining, Hanagan pushed his tally to 156, leaving him nine clear of Silvestre de Sousa and 13 ahead of six-time champion Kieren Fallon.
Hanagan won aboard 11-2 chance FUTURE SECURITY and closed out the double with 7-2 shot BODY LANGUAGE in the staying handicap.
