Today on Sky Sports Racing: William Buick and Brian Hughes take centre stage at Lingfield and Sedgefield | Racing News

A Flat Champion Jockey contender and a Champion Jockey over obstacles headline an excellent Tuesday of action from Lingfield and Sedgefield on Sky Sports Racing. 

William Buick – currently leading the way in the flat jockey’s standings at this early stage – rides likely favourite Touchwood in the Watch Chester On Sky Sports Racing Handicap at 4:00.

He takes on six rivals with the Charles Hill-trained horse, including previous course and distance winner Impeach.

Earlier on that Lingfield card, Ryan Moore takes the ride on potentially-smart novice Thesis for Harry and Roger Charlton in the At The Races App Form Study Novice Stakes (2:50).

Awaal and Frankel colt Vazire also hold strong chances, with the former a half-brother to Breton Rock.

At 1:45, The Queen is represented in a novice event with Garner, also trained by the Charlton team.

The feature over at Sedgefield (6:50) sees Champion Jockey Brian Hughes return to ride Geromino – a faller last time out – for Donald McCain in what appears to be a match on the betting.

Theo Gillard claims 3lb off Nero Rock, having also failed to complete last time for the Jenny Candlish team.
