You can't complain about not being able to watch live racing on Tuesday as there is something for everyone with Nottingham, Chelmsford, Ffos Las and Musselburgh offering a fine geographical spread, while Ballinrobe races in Ireland.

The evening meetings outweigh the afternoon fixtures, three to two, with Ffos Las and Musselburgh kicking off proceedings.

Make sure you check the going updates before placing a bet as the unpredictable weather of late may make you think twice about your selections.
