A day of drama at Ascot, spiky words from a top Irish jumps figure and the latest chapter in the Constitution Hill saga are all covered in this week's edition of The Front Page.Jonbon had a day to remember in the Clarence House Chase but he triumphed under James Bowen, not Harry Cobden, after JP McManus's next retained rider was injured in an earlier race. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Jonathan Harding look at what the win means for Jonbon and debate some dismissive comments from Marine Nationale's owner-trainer Barry Connell. They also ask what the future holds for Cobden and Mark Walsh, who has been McManus's principal rider in Ireland.As well as reflecting on the other weekend action, which included a devastating victory by Old Park Star, we examine a run of odds-on defeats for Willie Mullins-trained horses, a new Flat target for Constitution Hill and the ongoing stand-off between BHA chair Lord Allen and Britain's racecourses.

It's Novice Hurdlers Week on The Final Furlong Podcast as Emmet Kennedy, Adam Mills, and Jamie Wrenn take a forensic look at the horses lining up for the three other major Cheltenham Festival novice hurdles: • Turners Novices' Hurdle• Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle• Mares' Novices' Hurdle And we start with the big question… is No Drama This End the right favourite at 7/2, or is the Paul Nicholls buzz horse there to be taken on? The boys debate whether the market has this one right - or whether one of the improvers can mow him down come March.

A seismic move shakes up National Hunt racing - and we're here to unpack every angle. On this week's Final Furlong Podcast, Emmet Kennedy, Adam Mills, and Jamie Wrenn react to the news that Harry Cobden will become JP McManus' retained rider in the UK and Ireland from May. This is a power shift with huge implications - and the shockwaves stretch from Champion Hurdle favourites to handicap plotters.

From "A Day at the Races" to "Let It Ride" to "Seabiscuit," racing movies have had an important corner of the film world. The best of them and some bad ones are the subject of this week's Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Allen Johnson, who has been the film writer for 25 years at the San Francisco Chronicle, and Richard Migliore, the New York Racing Association TV analyst and lifelong movie buff, compare their thoughts and criticisms. Eleven movies were selected for their review, including: "A Day at the Races" "Boots Malone" "Casey's Shadow" "Easy Money" "Let It Ride" "National Velvet" "Phar Lap" "Racetrack" "Saratoga" "Seabiscuit" "Secretariat" Some films get more attention than others, and where they disagree may be a surprise. They also discuss some movies not provided on the list. Co-hosts John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson of Fairmount Park also weigh in with their thoughts about racing films.  The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

It's the first Final Furlong Podcast weekend preview of 2026, and Emmet Kennedy is joined by Andy Newton, George Gorman, and Peter Michael to take apart the feature races at Kempton, Warwick, and Fairyhouse on ITV Racing.

James Stevens is joined by Liam Headd, Keith Melrose and Unibet's Ed Nicholson to dive into the weekend action, dissecting the ITV racing including the Classic Chase at Warwick and a top Saturday card at Kempton, including the Lanzarote Hurdle.With the weather playing its part, the team assess the key races as we hope for a competitive weekend of jumps racing.

Novice chasers stole the show over Christmas - and now we need to separate hype from hard truth. On this week's Final Furlong Podcast, Emmet Kennedy, Adam Mills, and Jamie Wrenn break down the headline performances from Kempton, Leopardstown, Punchestown, and Limerick — and what they could mean for Cheltenham Festival 2026. Data-led, opinionated, and packed with value angles, this is the ultimate festive novice chase review.

Gideon sits down with Pierce Dargan, CEO of Equine MediRecord, local Irish councillor, and deputy mayor, to talk about what it takes to digitize equine welfare compliance in a pen and paper world, how COVID flipped adoption overnight, and where AI can actually make horses safer.Key topics discussed: Why Pierce ran for local politics, and what it means to shape real decisions like roads, schools, and community life.The early grind of building Equine MediRecord, including two years of approvals and stakeholder buy in before anyone could ditch the paper book.The unsexy truth of software: bugs, doubt, product fit anxiety, and the first moment someone actually paid.How COVID forced even the biggest holdouts online, and why that timing helped push equine compliance tech into new countries fast.Where AI can help next, from early lameness detection to colic alerts, plus why better data helps racing earn trust.Bonus: Pierce's first syndicate horse, Arthurian Fame, won the Microsoft Cup, then went on to run at Royal Ascot, which is the kind of sentence that only a few get to say aloud.Social media links for the guest:LinkedIn: Pierce DarganInstagram: @equine.medirecordSubscribe to Horse People Podcast on Spotify or Apple Podcasts so you do not miss the next conversation.

The Christmas racing is done. Now it's time to work out what actually matters. On this week's Final Furlong Podcast, Emmet Kennedy, Adam Mills, George Gorman, and Jamie Wrenn review the key races, performances, and Cheltenham implications from a fascinating festive period packed with Grade 1s, shocks, and strong opinions.

Are attendances set to bounce back at the Cheltenham Festival? That is just one of the questions examined in this week's edition of The Front Page. Hopes are high that falling crowd numbers at the sport's biggest meeting could become a thing of the past after Cheltenham's New Year's Day fixture was a sellout for the first time in its history. With attendances having also risen at Kempton, Ascot, Leopardstown and elsewhere across the Christmas and new year period, the sport is enjoying a positive start to 2026. Lee Mottershead, Lewis Porteous and Scott Burton look at that recent development and also discuss Betfred's decision to so far reject a new media rights deal with a collection of British racecourses. The team debate what that means and consider a move by campaigners to persuade government that gambling advertising should be banned. In another packed edition, Lee, Lewis and Scott also salute Billy Loughnane after the young riding sensation set a major new record.

The racing year's biggest stories get wrapped up and debated in a special hour-long episode of The Front Page. Willie Mullins, Oisin Murphy, Rachael Blackmore and Frankie Dettori all come under the spotlight as Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Jonathan Harding reflect on the furore surrounding Kempton's future, Constitution Hill's fall from grace and British racing's success in axing the tax. As well as reflecting on a year of huge-priced winners and unlikely success for pacemakers, the team looks back on some of their favourite races from 2026 and asks what we can expect from the new year.
