The weekend is almost upon us. But a big day of horse racing awaits.

Ulysses was Wednesday's big winner as Sir Michael Stoute celebrated a record sixth victory in the Juddmonte International at York.

Jim Crowley's mount collared the duelling Churchill and Barney Royal inside the final furlong to record a two-length victory.

There's more action to look forward to at York today, plus meetings at Chepstow , Stratford , Fontwell Park and Hamilton Park .

Here, our man in the know, David Yates runs through his selections for a bumper day of racing.
