RACING NEWMARKET PREVIEW:AHEAD OF tomorrow's Group One feast at Longchamp Aidan O'Brien pursues big money at Newmarket this afternoon where Together can make a quick and successful return to action, writes Brian O'Connor.

Last weekend’s Fillies Mile runner-up attempts to follow in the footsteps of Lillie Langtry, who won the Tattersalls Millions Fillies Trophy in 2009. That race, and the following colts race, in which O’Brien has both Factum and Oracle, are worth almost €1 million between them.

Together drops back a furlong for today’s event, and has a draw on the outside of the field, but is clearly in good form right now.

Wayne Lordan travels to Newmarket to team up with Pires for Tony Martin in the Cambridgeshire and also with Hen Night who takes on Group One company in the Sun Chariot Stakes.
