Flat Racing
Carlisle & Chester selections Saturday 30th May Having stepped in at the last minute to cover for the problems on Haydock’s track, Carlisle stages what surely must be its best ever card this afternoon.

Musselburgh & Haydock selections Saturday 4th April We are in that period now where jumps and flat racing share top billing and on this Easter weekend there is so much action to enjoy. I am concentrating on two big handicaps on the jumps card at Haydock and two big...

Doncaster, Aintree & Wincanton selections Saturday 8th November We finally wave goodbye to the flat season at Doncaster this afternoon (at least on turf) with the traditional final meeting run on traditionally heavy November ground.
