Channel 4 Racing live from York; day 3 of Ebor Festival

Channel 4 Racing will broadcast four live races today as the York Ebor Festival continues.

Clive Cox’s unbeaten Reckless Abandon attempts to cement his prowess in the Gimcrack Stakes.

Meanwhile, the battle to be top European sprinter continues; Ortensia bolted up in the King George Stakes at Goodwood, but he faces the might of Bated Breath, Pearl Secret and a couple of useful two-year-olds with a massive weight allowance: Hoyam and Ceiling Kitty.
