1:50 Haydock The first race on ITV is the Achilles Stakes, a listed race over 5f. It’s hard to get away from LIVE IN THE DREAM (Evens) here. He’s so fast so this 5f at Haydock on quick ground is going to be right…

2:00 Epsom We open up with the Princess Elizabeth Stakes, a Group 3 over a mile and half a furlong. It’s CHIC COLUMBINE (13/2) I’ve landed on here. She has winning form on different types of ground so whatever the weather…

2:00 Epsom The 2:00 is the Woodcote Stakes for the 2 year-olds over the 6f trip. The horse I like in this is TEEJ A (11/2). His debut effort at Nottingham was full of promise over 5f where he stayed on strongly…

1:15 Haydock The first race in the Silver Bowl handicap over the mile trip. It’s VOLTERRA (4/1) I like in this. He had a progressive profile at two improving for each of his three outings with cumulated in a victory at Redcar…

1:50 Newbury The opener on ITV is the Group 3 Aston Park Stakes over 1m4f. I expect DESERT HERO (10/11) NB to land this. The Royal Ascot winner last season made a highly encouraging return to action finishing a good second in a…

1:30 Ascot We have three races from Ascot and the first is at 1:30, it is a 1m4f handicap. I’ll chance top-weight THINK FIRST (8/1) EW here. He made an encouraging return to action at Epsom last time out finishing a good second…

1:45 Newmarket The first race live on ITV is a competitive 6f handicap. The one I like is RABAAH (8/1) EW for the Charlie Hills stable. He is completely unexposed coming here on the back of just five career starts. He started his…

1:50 Sandown The first of four live races from Sandown is the 1:50, a handicap hurdle for the novice hurdlers over 2 miles.  The one I like here is SECRET SQUIRREL (8/1) EW. A consistently improving sort who is yet to finish…

1:15 Ayr A short but select field for the opening handicap chase over the extended 2 miles. Plenty of horses that like to go forward here and that should suit PERSIAN TIME (6/1) who was value for his neck victory at Kempton last…

1:55 Aintree Our first selection is in the Grade 1 Mersey Novices Hurdle over 2m4f. I like CALDWELL POTTER (5/2) in this. I like the fresh angle coming here having skipped Cheltenham in favour of this. He was a Grade 1 winner…
