Clare Balding presents three races from Ascot, with the feature event being the Betfair Ascot Chase. In 2008 this race was won by the high class Kauto Star and jockey Ruby Walsh. The line-up this year is sure to feature some top quality horses aiming for the 150,000 pounds prize money. Race commentary comes from Jim McGrath, expert analysis from Norman Williamson, Richard Dunwoody and Rishi Persad. The Blue Square Gold Cup is the feature of the two races at Haydock, with many of the contenders looking for a good run today in preparation for the John Smith's Grand National in April. Commentary from Ian Bartlett.
