English Racing - Go with Tiger Dream

Today's racing takes place at Doncaster, Folkestone, Newcastle and The Curragh in Ireland. There is also National Hunt racing from Market Rasen, as well as Flat racing from Arlington in South Africa.

At the recent Royal Ascot Festival of racing which embraced five days of racing last week, YEATS created history by winning the prestigious Ascot Gold Cup over two miles for a fourth consecutive year.

YEATS was ridden by big-race jockey Johnny Murtagh for top Irish trainer, Aidan O'Brien. Meanwhile, Track Price Plus will pay a 10 per cent bonus on all dividends from Doncaster, Newcastle and The Curragh today.

Ante-post favourite

At Doncaster, we like the look of 3-1 ante-post favourite TIGER DREAM in the 12th race over seven furlongs to be contested by 11 starts. Trained by Kevin Ryan, the four-year-old colt is coming off a good second in a competitive race recently, and with in-form jockey Neil Callan taking the ride, he looks the right choice.
