Racing with Farringdon: August 31, 2024
The Star's tipster previews this weekend's racing at Sandown Phark, Chester and Beverley
Doha at Royal Ascot, June 19, 2024

ALTHOUGH there are two Premier Day race meetings, this afternoon does feel like a lull in the proceedings following the festivals at Goodwood and York.

There are, though, some interesting betting opportunities starting at Sandown Park where the big race of the day is the Atalanta Stakes at 2.25.

This Group Three event offers a chance for fillies and mares to gain some black type. Having failed at the highest level and in a field of nine, Tamfana is the likely market leader having contested the 1,000 Guineas (4th beaten a length), third in the French Oaks and last time out a close-up fourth of eight in the Grand Prix de Paris behind Sosie.
