Racing: Hyperion's TV Tips
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

1.30: MISSEL was narrowly beaten when third in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot and would have won had not greenness delayed his challenge. This colt can improve trainer Peter Chapple- Hyam's excellent record on his local track.
2.00: CASTORET faded in the closing stages when running over two miles last time. Today, however, this eight-year- old pursues a third course win over this distance, and is 7lb lower than his most recent Newbury victory.
2.30: Brief Glimpse and Femme Savante have solid credentials but Turtle Island, the Irish 2,000 Guineas winner, was third in this race a year ago. MALAFEMMENA has shaped like a very useful filly in two runs in Italy, and could be better class than this field.

3.15: A below-par field, more suited to a handicap than a Listed race, may be vulnerable to WANDESTA if she has the ability to justify her Yorkshire Oaks entry. She showed promise on her only run, behind Golden Nashwan, and runs here instead of the same connections' half- sister to Quest For Fame, Yenda.
3.45: In the absence of Henry Cecil's highly-regarded Charnwood Forest, none of the newcomers stands out on paper in a race which often goes to a useful prospect. LION'S MANE ran promisingly enough when fourth to Femme Savante on his debut to suggest he can prove close to the usual standard.
4.15: PAONIC split the very useful Diesan and Friendly Champ when runner-up in the juvenile maiden on this card a year ago, but had not performed to a similar level until a spectacular victory in a handicap at the July meeting last time out. A stiff rise in the weights may not be sufficient to halt his progress.
4.45: ALLTHRUTHENIGHT followed an Epsom success by finishing down the field in the Wokingham Handicap at Royal Ascot, but can recapture winning form on his return to the minimum distance.
