The first race is at 1pm - we have 2 runners Shakatak Alenaya, owned by Mrs Diane Creed, ridden by Mr Mike Palmer and Zayin Activist, owned by Zayin Arabian Stud, ridden by stable jockey David Turner. Both horses are having their first ever run.

The fourth race is at 2.30 and running is Majid Bin Krayaan, owned by HH Sheikha Maryam Bint M Al Maktoum, ridden by David Turner. Majid ran a very close second at Taunton last year and was beaten by our own Aurora Forta in a photo finish. This will be Majid's second run of the season so will be well prepared for this race.

We then have 2 more runners in the fifth race - Zayin Zachillies, owned by Zayin Arabian Stud and ridden by David Turner. Also running is Unity Belle, who won at Taunton last year under David Turner but will be ridden by Miss Laura Pearson, daughter of owner Heather Phillpott.

Good luck to all our runners and jockeys!
