Tuesday: Champion Novice Chase, Punchestown There was a feeling of deja vu about the Dooley Insurance Group Champion Novice Chase as Bob Olinger, just like stablemate Envoi Allen a year earlier, failed to fire and was pulled up in a Grade 1 dominated by Capodanno, who trainer Willie Mullins labelled a potential "Gold Cup horse". With Henry de…

Desert Crown: the new favourite for the Cazoo Derby Thursday: Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Dante Stakes, York It was just like old times. Racegoers packed eight or ten deep around the paddock to see the runners before the Dante Stakes and afterwards everyone was crowding around Sir Michael Stoute to acclaim a new star. Now, racing's worries about…

Benoit de la Sayette (left) and Harry Davies: two talented apprentice jockeys Identifying a top-class apprentice can be a golden ticket, for trainers and punters. Horses ridden by apprentice jockeys carry less weight than those with professionals on board. But some precocious apprentices can be just as good as professionals. Several stars of the…

Golden Sixty: created history by retaining his Champions Mile crown Golden Sixty became Hong Kong's highest earner in history by dominantly retaining the Group 1 FWD Champions Mile on Sunday. California Spangle was given a soft time in front but the 2-5 favourite travelled ominously well throughout under Vincent Ho and picked off that rival easily…

Steve Parkin: owner was left nursing an injury following Last Crusader's win at York Thursday: York Owner Steve Parkin had to grimace through the pain barrier to collect his trophy for the Westow Stakes after his exuberant celebrations cheering on Last Crusader's success left him nursing a suspected torn calf.

You would be forgiven for thinking we are set for a Willie Mullins match between Energumene and Chacun Pour Soi in Tuesday's feature Champion Chase (5.25) but the market suggests Envoi Allen should not be discounted at a double-figure price. The Cheveley Park-owned eight-year-old has reverted to two miles on his last couple of starts, winning a…

Charlie Appleby couldn't be happier with Native Trail and Coroebus, the two star colts who bid to give him a first success in the £500000 Qipco 2000 Guineas. Native Trail, unbeaten in five starts, including the Group 1 Dewhurst Stakes, is the Godolphin standard bearer, but few would be surprised if Coroebus made him work mighty hard. Appleby said:…

UNSTOPPABLE Kyprios is all the rage to keep his incredible winning streak going on Sunday. Aidan O'Brien's superstar stayer has twice broken the heart of big rival Stradivarius this season. He saw him off in an absolute thriller at Goodwood in July before benefitting from Frankie Dettori's infamous ride in the Gold Cup at Ascot. Kyprios ran out a…

FOR all the buzz around Baaeed and a bid for Arc glory, plenty of other big race wannabes have been overlooked. William Haggas' unbeaten star is 7-4 to win the Longchamp showpiece and will be plenty shorter if he makes it to the race. He is the likeliest winner by a stretch, but there are still holes you can poke at. Even without the obvious…

Le Milos and Harry Skelton take the last in the Coral Gold Cup from stablemates Remastered (left) and Gericault Roque The breathy sound that greeted Constitution Hill's thumping victory over Epatante and co in the Fighting Fifth Hurdle was partly awestruck gasp but mainly a collective sigh of relief that this wondrous talent is just as good as…

A fruitful day did not result in Nicky Henderson getting carried away with talk of becoming champion trainer, but he reiterated his claims James Bowen would be champion jockey one day. His comment came after Bowen's effort on First Street in the Coral-sponsored race better known as the Gerry Feilden. Henderson, like many in the sport, was blown…

Jet Powered powers home in the opening maiden hurdle Friday: Newbury It would be stretching things to say Nicky Henderson has another aeroplane on his hands, but Jet Powered had plenty of fuel left in the tank after his romp in the maiden hurdle. Buveur D'Air and Jonbon were Henderson stars to use the race as a launchpad to bigger and better…

Cornicello is well on top under Will Featherstone Thursday: Wincanton Jamie Snowden was spotted sprinting in the direction of the on-course bookies prior to Cornicello's success under Will Featherstone in the novice handicap hurdle for conditional and amateur riders, but it was not to have a flutter on his runner.

Fiddlerontheroof (left): finished a clear second to Cloudy Glen in the Ladbrokes Trophy Out of nowhere, a race that some might have taken as a veterans' handicap going by its roll call could have a bearing on this year's Gold Cup, Grand National, or both.
