Wild Illusion won the Nassau Stakes at Goodwood in good fashion which is her 2nd Group 1 of her career. Great to see win another Group 1 after being runner-up in the Oaks and Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Mark Johnston breaks the record for the most winners for a trainer in British history.
Nice scenes at York and fitting that Frankie does a flying dismount to mark the occasion |

Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Native River and King George VI Chase champion Might Bite look set to be among those competing for the Jockey Club's renewed £1m Triple Crown bonus next year. If they win the Betfair Chase at Haydock, King George VI Chase at Kempton and the Cheltenham Gold Cup. The connections of the horse will win £1 million.

John Gosden has confirmed that unbeaten Lah Ti Dar goes for the St Leger rather than taking up a group one Arc trial in France. She's been installed as favourite for Donny. She was favourite for the Oaks but had to miss the race with injury and made an impressive return at York with a 10 length win in a Listed race.

Too Darn Hot against Quorto could be next years big rivalry in the 3 year-old colt classics.

What a win by the wonder filly in Enable to win back to back Arc De Triomphes. And what a horse Sea of Class is as he is definitely the real deal to come back from that far behind to get second place. And also the consistent Cloth of Stars to get third was impressive after a bad year by his standards.

Fences and hurdles in British racing are set for a major makeover after it was discovered horses see the obstacles differently to humans.
At present, the framework for the jumps is painted orange but research has shown horses see the colour as a shade of green. Horse racing authorities have now agreed to try fluorescent yellow and white markers to aid visibility. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/horse-racing/45802534 |

Andrea Atzeni will miss tomorrow's British Champions Day at Ascot because of a two-day ban imposed in France earlier this month.
