To lose a Classic in the stewards' room is tough. For it to have happened to Kieran Shoemark in Paris on Sunday felt impossibly cruel. The disqualification of Shes Perfect following the French 1,000 Guineas - which prompted cries of "cheat" and "disgrace" in the Longchamp paddock - and her jockey's demotion by the Gosdens is the first story up for discussion in this week's edition of The Front Page. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Liam Headd reflect on Shoemark's miserable week in a programme that highlights the very different sort of week enjoyed by Aidan O'Brien and Hollie Doyle. In a show packed with subjects, the team also ask early questions about British racing's new £3.6 million marketing campaign, Ascot's decision to get rid of the ladies' team at the Shergar Cup and worrying news about declining foal crops in Britain and Ireland.

George Elek is joined by Andy Holding to look ahead to day one of the July Festival at Newmarket.2.37: The opening race of the week is the Maiden Fillies' Stakes run over six furlongs. Ivory Madonna appears to set the standard here after her run in the Albany Stakes and she'll have Hollie Doyle on board. Andy thinks she looks a worthy favourite in a tricky to call contest with over half the field newcomers.5.00: The Bahrain trophy comes next at 1.50. Deauville Legend runs here, tipped up by Andy at Royal Ascot where he came a notable second, he's 9/1 best price here and doesn't appear to be too fancied on this occasion. Masekela is the 7/4 favourite here following his Derby run, Walk of Stars follows next having disappointed there himself with Zechariah also around the 4/1 mark.9.25: The July Stakes takes place at 2.25, eight are declared at the time of writing and Persian Force and Little Big Bear both head the betting at 7/4 with the latter as short as 6/4 in places. Andy isn't keen on Persian Force at the price whilst he thinks Mysterious Night could be value at an each way price.12:55: 19 are entered for the Bet365 Heritage handicap. Bosh jumps of the page here for Andy with Richard Hannon's charge currently a best price of 11/1, several bookies are paying up to 6 places on this one at 3pm and Andy thinks at the prices it could be the best bet on the card.16:30: Mostahdaf just edges Yibir for favouritism in the Princess Of Wales's Close Brothers Stakes and Andy thinks he's a fair favourite and can't see too much value elsewhere in the race.18:30: Frankie Dettori rides favourite Mighty Ulysees in the listed Sir Henry Cecil Stakes. Alflaila is one that interests Andy here at 10/1 having previously tipped him up for the Jersey Stakes.21:08: The final race on the card is the Weatherbys Hamilton Handicap over a mile. Enforced is the favourite here at 3/1. A trappy looking race and after some deliberation Andy landed on Charlie Appleby runners Echo Point and Noble Dynasty.

We look ahead to the final day of Royal Ascot by speaking to the most successful female jockey in the history of the meeting. Hollie Doyle has been competing at the course all week, and joins us ahead of her ride in the big race of the day - the Platinum Jubilee Stakes. Kathrine Switzer reflects on how she helped pave the way for female runners following the 50th New York mini marathon. Switzer co-founded and competed in the first event back in 1972 and recalls the barriers women runners faced at that time - including how she was attacked by a race official during the Boston Marathon in 1967, when females were prohibited from entering the race. Nathan Fluellen tells us about “A great day in the Stoke”, which he believes was the biggest gathering of Black surfers in history. He says the idea for the recent event in Los Angeles came to him in the aftermath of 2020's racial reckoning, when Black surfers staged “paddle outs” following the killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. Andrea Mason explains her motivation for attempting to break four world records next month, when she'll attempt to swim the three longest lakes and climb the three highest mountains in Wales, England and Scotland, and cycle between them too. Mason is doing the challenge in order to raise awareness about menstrual health. In 2017, she was diagnosed with severe endometriosis and cervical cancer and underwent a hysterectomy. And in Sporting Witness, we travel back 48 years to the revolutionary surgery that saved baseball pitcher Tommy John's elbow and career. He was the first to have it done - and he paved the way for thousands of others. He became known as the Bionic Man and the operation was named after him.
