The Group 2 Temple Stakes, run over the straight 5 furlong course at Haydock is one of the feature races of the weekend. The Sandy Lane Stakes is also run on the same afternoon over a furlong further at the Lancashire track.

Goodwood and York provide further flat racing on Saturday, whilst the Irish 2000 Guineas takes place at the Curragh.

Jockey Rossa Ryan has some good chances of a winner or two at Haydock and he joins us today to discuss a couple of his rides.
