Something of a manic Monday with seven fixtures to start a week that also includes York's Dante meeting and ends with the Group 1 Al Shaqab Lockinge at Newbury.

Wolverhampton kicks things off on the all-weather at 1.50, while there is Flat turf racing at Catterick, Tipperary and Windsor, where the highlight is the Listed Weatherbys Racing Bank Supporting Mental Health Foundation Stakes.

Ruth Carr runs Sovereign Debt in that and said: "The change in the going to good to soft won't worry him, and so we're looking forward to it."

What to back

Tom Collins has the day's best bets and takes a glance at the favourites to focus on.

It is down to David Jennings to guide you through the Irish action.


What to read

David Simcock will not mind being reminded of his first Classic win thanks to Teppal in the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches, while Olmedo was too good in the Poule d'Essai des Poulains, but not everyone was happy at Longchamp.

Lee Mottershead's column is, as usual, a must-not-miss read, while our expert jury take a look at the weekend talking points.


What to watch

Seee how busy a boy Nathaniel is ...

The best of Racing Post Sport

The team tackle the crucial Fulham-Derby tie.


Final thought

No-one wants to see the scenes Goodwood and Ascot have experienced recently – members of the crowd fighting – so let's hope we're talking about the action on the track at York and Newbury this week, and not what's going on off it.
