More Deauville delights plus another weekend of ITV action

Monday

Racing returns to Chester on Monday evening, with in-form sprinter Judicial (6.30) the one to beat in the feature Listed #Chestertogether Queensferry Stakes.

An eight-race jumps card at Ballinrobe, where the unbeaten Malone Road returns, complements Chester’s offering in the evening, while Southwell (jumps) and Leicester (Flat) stage afternoon action in the East Midlands.

Former apprentice Poppy Bridgwater has her first ride as a conditional on Fort Gabriel (4.15) in the 3m novice hurdle at Southwell.

Tuesday

It’s nine-race cards all the way with Haydock and Wolverhampton providing the afternoon entertainment. Ryan Moore is a rare visitor to Dunstall Park but boasts a 31 per cent course strike-rate (5-16) in the past five seasons and has three mounts.
