  14.15 – Royal Ascot On Sky Sports Racing Novices’ Limited Handicap Chase – 1m7f The tactics will be interesting in the opener given only three compete. DONNIE AZOFF, a hurdles winner at Taunton, ran well on his chase debut when second and should be in the firing line, though AL ZARAQAAN is the highest-rated of these and impressed in winning on his chase debut at Cartmel.

  13.50 – Racing Partnership Novices’ Hurdle I’ll side with SYLVIES DANCE in the opener, who’s second at Chepstow looks a strong piece of form for this grade. She proved no match for the winner but travelled well through the race and should be able to build on that display in this contest.

  13.55 – Join RacingTV Now EBF Novice Stakes – 5f A difficult race to dissect with all of these making their debut. Richard Fahey’s BONELESS has a decent draw, so makes the shortlist. George Scott’s duo CHAPMAN and VICE CAPTAIN both have a nice look to them on paper and it would come as no surprise if one or both of these figure as well.

  13.35 – Welsh Cottage Cakes Novices’ Hurdle Nicky Henderson’s KING ALEXANDER should be difficult to beat, who beat a decent yardstick in Maclaine when winning at Warwick and that is the best form in the field.

  Newmarket Place 6 preview | 20th May

  13.30 – British Stallion Studs EBF Fillies’ Novice Stakes – 6f Plenty of guesswork involved for the opener but LA GUARIDA could be set to run well on debut for Richard Hannon, who does very well with 2yo’s at this course, while MAMMY has an attractive pedigree and isn’t discounted for Michael Bell.
