Hi all,

Curragh hosts the most valuable race run in Britain & Ireland this weekend. There’s €600,000 in guaranteed prize money for the Irish Cesarewitch (4.10). Given the prize money on offer, not unsurprisingly a maximum field of 30 is set to meet the starter.

The ground was yielding to soft at the Curragh on Saturday. However, there’s plenty of rain forecast for Sunday afternoon at the track and if it arrives it will be much softer.

In today’s main piece I’m previewing Irish Cesarewitch.

Hi all,

Plenty of good action today at Ayr where it’s the concluding day of the Western Meeting and the big betting race of the day the Ayr Gold Cup (3:35).

There’s Group 2 action at Newbury where the Mill Reef Stakes (3:15) is the centerpiece of a seven race card.

Across the Irish Sea at the Curragh there’s also Group 2 action with the Beresford Stakes. Just six have been declared with Aidan O’Brien saddling three of them.  Add in a big field 5f Premier Handicap (3:50) and Irish punters have good card to get stuck into.

ITV4 are covering the best of the action at Ayr & Newbury on a nine race programme this afternoon.

In today’s main piece I’m looking at the first two races on ITV from Ayr.
