Kieren Fallon - File

Today's racing takes place at Fontwell, Sedgefield and the all-weather Flat course Southwell.

Meanwhile, six-time champion jockey Kieren Fallon is again free to ride in Britain after his race-fixing trial collapsed at the Old Bailey in London last Friday.

Fallon and five other men, including fellow jockeys Darren Williams and Fergal Lynch, were acquitted by a jury on the directions of judge Justice Forbes.

The judge said there was no case to answer following defence submissions at the end of the two months of prosecution evidence.

Fallon is now set for a return to the saddle in Britain following a 17-month suspension imposed after charges were brought against him.

Fallon, banned from racing in Britain since his arrest last year, said in a statement: "I am of course relieved and delighted, but also outraged. There was never any evidence against me."

'Significant shortcomings'

The British Horseracing Authority said after the case: "The restrictions placed on the three jockeys involved in the proceedings expired at the conclusion of the proceedings.

"Kieren Fallon, who is licensed to the Irish Turf Club, is therefore able to ride in Great Britain and Fergal Lynch and Darren Williams are able to reapply for their jockeys' licences."

The judge said the evidence given by prosecution's sole expert witness contained "significant limitations and shortcomings".

Today at Southwell in the ninth race over one mile and six furlongs, we like the look of in-form YOUNG SCOTTON, the 15-8 favourite in a field of seven.
