Flat meetings are the order of the day today with racing coming from Beverley, Sandown, Yarmouth and Naas in Ireland, while Kelso hosts an afternoon jumps fixture.
Sandown’s eight-race card includes the Listed Chasemore Farm Fortune Stakes (1m) in which a field of six go to post. The likely favourite is the Richard Hannon-trained King Of Change, who hasn’t been seen since finishing second to Magna Grecia in the 2,000 Guineas in May.
His opponents include the John Gosden-trained Turgenev, former South African performer Last Winter, now based with Sir Michael Stoute, and Prince Eiji, who cost the princely sum of 2.6 million guineas as a yearling and makes his seasonal debut for the Roger Varian stable.
Over at Yarmouth, the seaside track’s feature race of the day is the Listed John Musker Fillies’ Stakes (1m2f) with the improving Fanny Logan looking the one to beat.
The third and final stakes race in Europe is the Listed Prix Coronation (1m) at Saint-Cloud for three-year-old fillies. The field of 12 includes the James Fanshawe-trained Audarya and Ya Hala representing Charlie Appleby.
