What horse racing event are you most looking forward to?

There’s plenty of racing coming up

With UK racing now back up and running, we’ve got plenty to look forward to over the next few months.

It’s still going to be slightly different for a while at least, but once the race begins, you feel that excitement again.

And with the racing calendar starting to fall into place, we want to know what event you’re most looking forward to.

Newmarket Classics – 6-7th June

After a week of meets across the UK, racing properly announces its return with the first Classics of the season at Newmarket this weekend.

Saturday brings the 2,000 Guineas, with Pinatubo leading the betting. The son of Shamardal was unbeaten in each of his six appearances last season, including impressive wins in the National and Dewhurst Stakes.

Then on Sunday it’s time for the 1,000 Guineas. Quadrilateral looks in good shape as favourite. She’s currently unbeaten and if she maintains that record, she’d be Roger Charlton’s first Classic winner since 1990.

Royal Ascot – 16th-20th June

Royal Ascot may not be graced by the Queen this year, but there are still 36 races to enjoy across five days.

It’s set to get started on Tuesday 16th June, with the St James Palace Stakes taking centre-stage. Richard Hannon’s Threat is among the runners eyeing up the 1m Group One contest, having won the Gimcrack and Champagne Stakes last season.
