Hayley Backs Hollie for More Ascot Success
The ground at Ascot will be very, very heavy and very hard work. I am at Lingfield for two rides this evening. At Ascot itself, I’ve had a look at the cards and I think that Wonderful Tonight (9/2) would have a big chance in the Hardwicke. She was very impressive on bottomless ground on […]
UFC Fight Night: The Korean Zombie vs Ige Preview
UFC 263 was a successful event for my predictions, as I went 9-5 on the card, including hitting on three underdogs. Which brings us to this weekend’s UFC Fight Night: The Korean Zombie vs Ige, from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Inadvertently I ended up riding with quite a few live (hopefully) dogs on […]

It’s US Open week! Considered the toughest test in professional golf and having seen some players social media posts this week, Torrey Pines will be a brute… Admittedly, the week won’t be the same without the Tiger, but the recent drama and spats between the defending champion (Bryson DeChambeau) and the ‘major man’ of recent […]
Hayley Turner’s Royal Ascot Tips for Day Two of the Festival
3:40 – Group 2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes – Onassis Onassis (12/1) was the heroine of the hour last year when giving me a second Sandringham Stakes for Charlie Fellowes.

Formula 1 returns to its spiritual home of France this weekend for round seven of what is fast becoming the most enthralling seasons of the hybrid era.

Hayley’s Tips for Day 1 of the Royal Ascot Festival
Royal Ascot is the best week of the year for flat jockeys. It’s brilliant to have crowds back and 12,000 punters each day will make a huge difference to the atmosphere and general feeling around the racecourse. I have ridden a winner in each of the last two years of the Royal meeting and I’m […]
