RACING
There will be just three entries for today’s feature race at Ascot - the King George-the-sixth and Queen Elizabeth Stakes.
The Aidan O’Brien-trained Anthony Van Dyck was declared a non-runner yesterday.
That means Enable - ridden by Frankie Dettori - will have just two other horses standing in the way of a third victory in the race.
Aidan O’Brien saddles one of those - the Ryan Moore mount, Japan.
The big race is off at 25-to-4 and is the feature of a nine-race card at Ascot today.

Here at home, an eight-race card at Gowran Park gets underway at 1.20.
While at Tramore, the first of a seven-race card goes to post at twenty-to-5.
ATHLETICS
Ciara Mageean became just the second woman in 26-years to set an Irish record in the 800-metres last night.
The Portaferry athlete knocked over a second off Rose-Anne Galligan’s previous best.
Mageean put in a blistering performance to claim victory in Bern.
GOLF
Jonathan Caldwell will go into tomorrow’s final round of the British Masters six shots off the lead.
The Bangor golfer carded a 67 today to go into the clubhouse on 10-under par.
Paul Dunne will begin the final day from 3-under.
But Italy’s Renato Paratore remains the man to catch on 16-under.
SOCCER
Kylian Mbappé has emerged as a major doubt for P-S-G’s Champions League quarter-final with Atalanta.
The forward limped out of last night’s French Cup final win for his side over Saint Etienne.
Mbappé left the Stade de France on crutches following a red card tackle from Loic Perrin.
