It is another action-packed day on ITV as the Group 3 Atalanta Stakes (2.25) and Group 3 Solario Stakes (3.35) feature at Sandown. Charlie Appleby has won the last two runnings of the Solario and is worth following if he saddles any runners, with the race's honour roll including Masar, Too Darn Hot and Kingman.
