Today on Sky Sports Racing: Action from Southwell and Deauville as My Highness makes three-year-old debut

We have a busy day’s racing on Tuesday with Flat action from Southwell and Deauville, live on Your Site Racing...

Andre Fabre's filly My Highness makes her three-year-old debut in the Group Three Prix imprudence this afternoon en route to a Class campaign.

My Highness took the Group Two Prix du Calvados at Deauville last summer, announcing herself on the big stage as she downed Fitzella who was well campaigned as a two-year-old for Hugo Palmer.

Half Sovereign for Karl Burke got better and better last season and she concluded her campaign with a win in the Group Three Prix Miesque. She represents the main danger to the Godolphin filly with further progress expected.

Another British raider comes from the Kevin Ryan yard as he sends Isle Of Fernandez, who is only a maiden winner at the moment but has shown black-type ability, placing in a Group Three and a Listed race at the back end of last season.

Lexington Jet heads a field of 13 in today's feature at Southwell for the Your Site Racing Mile Series Final Handicap.

This four-year-old has racked up a fair number of runs but it is only in recent weeks where we have seen him to best effect. All of his three wins have comes in this calendar year, within his last four races.

He arrives here off the back of a personal best performance, winning in impressive fashion at Chelmsford, but now has the widest stall and a five-pound penalty to contend with for that last effort. Jack Callan comes into the plate to help counteract it.

The Ian Williams-trained Tonal is another last-time-out winner who cannot be discounted with a course and distance success to his name and the six-year-old hasn't been out of the money in his last seven starts.

Rising Force arrives here off the back of a very good win at Doncaster and he boasts a fine all-weather record so should be in the shake-up despite a five-pound rise in the weights. Sean D Bowen takes the ride.

Sajir returns to the track looking for more sprinting riches after taking out the Group One Prix Maurice de Gheest at Deauville last season, beating the likes of Lazzat and Woodshauna.

Fabre's colt was a big price but swooped late to claim one of the summer showpieces at Deauville in the style of a high-class sprinter. He wasn't able to repeat that effort in the Prix de la Foret but the race set-up played against him that day and there could be more to come from him in 2026.

Jawwal is another with Group One form, not out of the first two in his last four runs, culminating in a standout personal best performance when second in the Prix de l'Abbaye when last seen. He may not have reached his ceiling yet.

Stolen Kiss is of interest with match fitness on his side, having won decisively at Chantilly in March with the second and third boosting the form since. He, too, remains unexposed as a sprinter.

2.40 Deauville - G3 Prix Djebel - Samangan and Firefall contest Guineas trial.

5.30 Southwell - Brazilian Belle chases hat-trick.

6.00 Southwell - Sovereign View and Captain Fox clash.
