SAD TO SEE The injury cast a shadow over the opening contest on day two THERE were 'horrible' scenes on day two at Royal Ascot as a 'magnificent' horse sadly suffered what looked a fatal injury in the first place. The Richard Hannon-trained two-year-old filly Harry's Girl looked to hurt her leg badly in the opening Queen Mary sprint. 1 ITV Racing presenter Ed Chamberlin said the incident was 'horrible' - and cast a shadow over the contest won by Aidan O'Brien's True Love.

Erosion of Boxing Day matches a betrayal of English football tradition
One by one the old traditions of watching football are being eroded. The FA Cup third round is now stretched out almost as long as Liz Truss was in Downing Street, while in the top flight 3pm Saturday kick-offs are a vanishing rarity and the FA Cup final is no longer the concluding action of the summer. And now a full programme of Boxing Day fixtures, a central part of the football-watching calendar for generations, has been consigned to the history books. The Premier League fixtures for the 2025-26 season have just been announced. And they feature a notable gap: nothing is officially scheduled for December 26. All 10 games are down for Saturday 27. True, the league has suggested that December 26 is open for switches should the broadcasters wish to schedule on that day. But even if the TV bosses take up their full allocation, it would mean no more than five top-flight games played on Boxing Day. The ostensible reason is player welfare. Managers had long complained that the obligation to play matches less than 48 hours apart over the Christmas period was an unnecessary burden. Comparisons were made with continental leagues, where players can take up to a fortnight's mid-winter break, the kind of rest and recuperation that apparently means they are better prepared for the season's second half. Never mind that the Club World Cup, never mind immediate post-season tours of the Far East, never mind the continuous bloating of European competition, in order to catch up with the Europeans it is apparently Boxing Day that has to go in order to give the lads a breather. Boxing Day, the day when everyone is off work, when families gather together, when sport is at the heart of the collective entertainment. Boxing Day, when there is the time and inclination to head off to a live event. Boxing Day, the day that for many moons has been seemingly constructed to watch sport. Sure, the curtailing of public transport on the day has made the journey to the stadium ever harder. Because of the fact the Amex is close to inaccessible without the train and bus services, Brighton have not been able to play a home fixture on December 26 for the past few seasons. But then, not that long ago, to make things more convenient for the match-going crowd, Boxing Day was derby day, your team played their local rivals. That tradition has long been consigned to history, not least because the local police force needs a bit of a holiday too. But football fans are resourceful people: they find a way to get there, wherever it might be. And getting there is more than worthwhile. Despite the chants mythologising some previous seasonal encounter for the historic bad blood between two teams, matches on December 26 tend to have a festive, warm, congenial atmosphere unlike any other. It is a party. Well, at least until the first time your team concedes a goal. Fans the last consideration for authorities What suits the match-going fan, though, has become the last consideration of those in charge of fixtures. Train timetables are never consulted when hastily arranging evening kick-offs to suit the television schedulers. Broadcasters bring forward start times regardless of how far the away fans have to travel (Newcastle made to play at Bournemouth at 12.30pm on a Saturday? Sounds a cracker for the television audience).

Ethan Wheatley hopes Euros stage offers ‘perfect way' to impress Ruben Amorim
Wheatley found first-team opportunities limited to one substitute Carabao Cup appearance this term and joined Sky Bet League Two promotion hopefuls Walsall in January in search of regular competitive football. But things went awry at the Bescot as he played just four times and ultimately got permission to feature for United's Under-21s towards the end of a season that could yet end on a high with England Under-19s in Romania. ✍️ We're thrilled to announce the signing of highly-rated @ManUtd teenager Ethan Wheatley on loan until the end of the season! Read more 👉 — Walsall FC (@WFCOfficial) January 25, 2025 'My second half of season has been frustrating, not being able to show what I'm about, really,' Wheatley told the PA news agency. 'But I think this tournament is the perfect way to do it. 'I think there'll be a lot of eyes on it and obviously representing your country in a Euros there's not much better than that. 'It'll be good to hopefully impress and, just for myself and for the team, play my part and do well. 'The club have been good with me. They've let me come back and play a few 21s games just to keep my legs going, so it's been good to be back at United, developing and getting game time.' United staff are understood to have been perplexed by Walsall's approach with Wheatley, who scored a vital goal for his country in a jaw-dropping match at the Under-19s Euros on Tuesday. England were 5-1 down just minutes into the second half, only for the striker to spark a scarcely believable 5-5 comeback draw as attention turns to Friday's final pool game against Group B winners the Netherlands. A remarkable game played out in #U19EURO Group B for our #YoungLions. Next up, the Netherlands on Friday 👊 — England (@England) June 17, 2025 Wheatley's display showed the kind of maturity and confidence he spoke with at the team base in Romania, where he appeared focused and undeterred by his struggles at Walsall. 'Even if my first (loan) didn't go well – and it didn't – I had it in the back of my head, and I was telling staff around the club, it's not going to define me as a player,' United's 250th academy graduate said. 'It's not going to judge where I end up in the future. I think it's just like a little blip in my early career, and hopefully I can just bounce back from it going into next season.' Erik ten Hag gave Ethan Wheatley his Manchester United debut in April 2024 (Martin Rickett/PA) Erik ten Hag liked Wheatley and included him in last summer's tour squad having played him three times in the Premier League, but it remains to be seen what successor Ruben Amorim has in store for him. Asked if he know show the future looks, the talented United forward said: 'As of now, no, not really. I'm just more concentrated on this tournament. 'But, yeah, since (Amorim) came in I was away with international camp and obviously went on loan in January, so I've not really been around it too much. 'But I want to be a Man United player in the future, but if that doesn't happen then it obviously wasn't meant to be. We'll just see what happens in the future.'
