A bit of a loose cannon over timber, the bigger obstacles might calm him down a bit with Christian Williams on board.

After today, Fontwell staff will start gearing up for one of the big events on their calendar, the Super Irish Saturday in nine days' time, when folk rock legends The Levellers will play after racing.

That meeting features seven races, starting at 2.20pm, and is a charity day held in association with Southern Water. Seven charities will benefit.

There will be a Guinness bar and a competition to win flights to Ireland.
