The 2018 York Ebor Festival continues on Friday - and here is everything you need before the action gets underway.

Mark Johnston made turf history on Thursday as Britain’s most prolific trainer as Poet’s Society triumphed - to give the Middleham-based Scot a 4,194th career victory.

The four-year-old defied odds of 20-1 with an all-the-way success under Frankie Dettori in the Clipper Logistics Handicap to edge Johnston past Richard Hannon snr, with whom he has shared the record since Saturday.

There's plenty more to get excited about on day three.

But first, we bring you Newsboys tips for the afternoon...
