hampion jockey Kieren Fallon returns to action in Britain today. Though only just back from Hong Kong, Fallon has a double shift. He has two rides at Lingfield this afternoon and three at Wolverhampton's evening fixture. Fallon renews regular partnerships with trainers Gay Kelleway (who has booked him for Ivor's Deed at Lingfield and Pericles at Wolverhampton) and Eric Alston (Bowcliffe at Wolverhampton). And he also rides Martyn Meade's Impulsive Decision at Lingfield and Oliver Sherwood's Father Sky at Wolverhampton.

l Arkle Trophy favourite Dardjini has suffered a setback and will miss his intended outing at Leopardstown tomorrow. Noel Meade is unsure whether the gelding will recover in time to take his chance in the 2m Arkle at Cheltenham, for which he is 7-2 with William Hill.
