All you need to start your day including going from all the tracks
With the beginning of Royal Ascot only two days away you could be forgiven for thinking Sunday's action may be below par, but fear not as Salisbury hosts a highly informative Listed race.
The Cathedral Stakes (4.10) sees a high-class field headed by Snazzy Jazzy, who finished a good third to Safe Voyage in the John of Gaunt Stakes last Saturday, and the popular George Bowen for Richard Fahey.
The fly in the ointment could be unbeaten three-year-old filly Archer's Dream who is in receipt of all the allowances, representing the James Fanshawe-Fred Archer axis made by The Tin Man's exploits.
If fancy pedigrees are your thing then head over to Gowran Park for the 1m1½f maiden (4.20) where Aidan O'Brien saddles the Galileo fillies Flowering Peach and Flying.
Jumping at Downpatrick and further Flat racing at Doncaster complete the day's itinerary.
