The seven-race card gets under way at 2.10pm with The Clean Event Selling Stakes over an extended one and a quarter miles and finishes with The Racing UK Apprentice Handicap at 5.40pm.

Despite some recent rain, the going is again expected to ride on the fast side.

Richard Hannon's stable continues in good form and the Wiltshire trainer made three entries in the second, a race over seven furlongs for juveniles.

He has opted to run two of them and the recent Leicester winner Lucky Redback, who will be ridden by Pat Dobbs, looks to have much the better chance than Super Fourteen.

The fourth, The New Ticket Hotline On 08445793013 Handicap over six furlongs, has the biggest prize fund of the day with £11,000 in the kitty.

I make Candela Bay, who hails from another in-form stable, that of William Haggas, and swerved an engagement at Newbury yesterday, the best bet of the afternoon.

She can follow up her impressive defeat of Ivory Silk at Salisbury last time out.

In the sixth, The Turf TV Handicap over two miles, Tasheba, trained at Newmarket by Peter Chapple-Hyam and ridden by Steve Drowne, may be the one to be on.

With fast ground and a strong tailwind, two track records tumbled at last Thursday's meeting. In the opener for juveniles over the minimum five furlongs trip, Amour Propre went off at the head of the market and duly obliged by three lengths from Deposer and early leader, Green Poppy.

The time of 57.95sec was a course record for two-year-olds and Henry Candy’s charge could follow up under a penalty.

Apprentice Amy Scott has struck up a good partnership with Seamus Shindig and they were looking for their third consecutive win in the second, a handicap over six furlongs.

Held up as usual, Seamus Shindig could never get in a blow behind all-the-way scorer Peter Island, who held on well to deny favourite Toms Laughter by a length.

The winner came home in another course record time, beating the mark set by Arabian Art a week before.

The richest race of the afternoon was the fourth, the CommScope Enterprise Solutions Eternal Stakes (Listed) over seven furlongs for three-year-old fillies.

Kylayne was sent off at 11-8 favourite to improve on her last run in a Group 3 race at Lingfield, but had to settle for third place behind Clifton Dancer and Lesson In Humility.

Clifton Dancer led from the start and answered all of jockey Richard Kingscote’s calls to see off the persistent challenge of Lesson in Humilty by a neck and continue Lambourn trainer Tom Dascombe’s good run.

Manchester United star, Paul Scholes, was in the crowd, having come to support his runner in the fifth, Red Cauldron.
