Send us a textSouthern Illinois Raceway's own Caleb Hilliard joins the show with MAJOR updates about the 2025 Terry Sprague Memorial Race – now paying a whopping $13,000 to WIN, with $100 added to the top 10 start pay! Huge thanks to Trager Beverages for stepping up and supporting grassroots racing in a BIG way!

Big stories and big races are up for discussion as Lee Mottershead and Jonathan Harding talk about some of the sport's hottest issues in this week's edition of The Front Page. Frankie Dettori, Ryan Moore and William Buick have signed up to a new $15 million global jockeys' league that is expected to launch across some of the world's most prestigious racing venues early next year. We assess its chances of bringing a new audience to the sport. Buick's place among the world racing elite was confirmed over the weekend at Newmarket, where he teamed up with Charlie Appleby to win both the 2,000 and 1,000 Guineas, while in America Godolphin also landed the Kentucky Derby and Oaks. We look back on the Classic action and reflect on a Punchestown festival that was fantastic for fans of Galopin Des Champs but terrible for the increasingly long-suffering supporters of Constitution Hill. This week's show ends with more bad news of crashing betting turnover and worrying suggestions that the government is considering tax changes that seem set to heap yet more woe on British racing.

This week on the Front Page from the Racing Post:  Willie Mullins storms to a second consecutive British trainers' title after an incredible spring campaign. We discuss how he did it - and how Dan Skelton can topple him. Sean Bowen finally secures the champion jockey crown - hear why legends of the saddle think he could dominate for years to come. Plus, a huge week ahead with Constitution Hill's comeback at Punchestown, the Guineas at Newmarket, Netflix's new racing docuseries and a big bookmaker controversy that rocked social media.

The absorbing trainers' championship duel between Willie Mullins and Dan Skelton comes under the microscope in an edition of The Front Page that covers even more ground than usual. As well as debating who will lift the trophy at Sandown on Saturday, Lee Mottershead, Peter Scargill and James Stevens look back on a Craven meeting that was particularly important to Kieran Shoemark. Part one of the programme then examines another extraordinary week of sales action that peaked with Amo Racing paying 1,750,000gns for an unraced horse who was sold in December 2023 for 55,000gns. In the second half of the show the panel look at the controversy surrounding an experienced clerk of the course revealing he amends official ground data. That angered trainers, as did the prize-money offered at Southwell on Sunday. The team reflects on the protest action that produced and then look forward to a brand new horseracing docuseries set to launch on Netflix this week.

How can it be that in 2025 female jockeys still have to enter male changing rooms to properly do their job?  That is one of the big questions asked in this week's edition of The Front Page, which looks at some of the powerful revelations that emerged in the Racing Post's special report on the appalling standard of some British weighing rooms. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Liam Headd ask why the majority of tracks have not moved faster to improve facilities for riders and why the BHA has seemingly regulated racecourses so meekly. The show kicks off by reflecting on a weekend of quality jumps action at Ayr, where Captain Cody's victory in the Scottish Grand National left Willie Mullins ever closer to denying Dan Skelton a first trainers' championship. We also look back on a day of spring trials at Newbury and ask if any future Classic winners were in action. The programme ends by looking at the 2024-25 Racing Post Jumps Horse of the Year poll. Lee, Chris and Liam reveal where their vote would go but this is a public vote and it's Racing Post readers who will have the final say. 

An incredible Grand National festival, a new high for Willie Mullins and the trainers' title race explodes back into life. On this week's Front Page, we digest Willie and Patrick Mullins' emotional triumph, ask whether Dan Skelton can hang onto his title lead and debate what Mullins' dominance means for the future of the National. Plus: Constitution Hill's latest fall, Paul Nicholls' Grade 1 double, Frankie Dettori's Dubai World Cup comeback and we pay tribute to Hayley Turner as she hangs up her saddle.

Eddie Jordan has been labelled as a ‘maverick' and a ‘showman' but behind all the brouhaha was a very astute businessman who loved his racing. We take a look at the ‘man behind the mask' in our tribute to Eddie who died last month. We also look at EJ the racing driver and also what happened to the team after he sold it on. Goodwood Members Meeting takes place later in April and we highlight some of the things to look out for.

34 runners will head to Aintree in Saturday's Grand National, but who will win? That is the big question asked in this week's edition of The Front Page, in which Liam Headd and James Stevens look ahead to the weekend's action. The pair discuss the chances of the leading contenders, whether the winner will come from Britain or Ireland and share their best tip for the race. Last weekend also saw the first big race of the 2025 Flat season and racing at Doncaster and a key Classic trial at Leopardstown is reviewed. The panel discuss the credentials of Delacroix in the Derby after his impressive victory. Also on the show is a look ahead to ITV Racing's coverage of the Grand National after Sam Quek was confirmed to be joining the broadcaster across the three-day coverage.

The Grand National has changed enormously in recent years. Does it now need to change again? That is the big question asked in this week's edition of The Front Page, in which Chris Cook and Jonathan Harding join Lee Mottershead to discuss complaints from a number of British trainers that the sport's most famous race has lost its essence. Should there be a cap on the number of runners a single trainer can have? Would the Grand National be better with win-and-you're-in races? And do people really care who trains the runners or in what country they are trained? After looking forward to Aintree, the team looks back at the Cheltenham Festival, this focusing on last week's announcement that some ticket prices are to be cut, alongside a rebranding of the meeting's second day. To wrap up the programme, we reflect on the Racing Post's Racing and the Economy series, debate the mini revolt that occurred when some of Britain's trainers met in London and, after all that, we even tell you who the panel fancies for next Saturday's Grand National.

It's all things Cheltenham on this week's edition of The Front Page as Paul Kealy and Maddy Playle join Lee Mottershead to look back on the biggest meeting of the year. The top chasers, hurdlers and stories are all examined in depth, with the panel looking back on Inothewayurthinkin's Gold Cup defeat of Galopin Des Champs, an extraordinary Champion Hurdle, the decision to run Lossiemouth in the Mares' Hurdle and so much more. There were fewer racegoers and more false starts than last year but the festival was still fantastic and threw up an abundance of talking points - this is the place where we do the talking.

Jim Roller has taken in some Florida sunshine as he visits Brian Redman's Targa 66. He talks to Bill Auberlen, Scott George and Brad Kettler about this unique event and the cars they run there. Paul Tarsey and Paul Jurd discuss the success of Race Retro and Simon Owen from Scalextric talks to Joe Bradley about the new season's cars from the world's leading slot car manufacturer.

With just SEVEN DAYS until the Cheltenham Festival, the Front Page looks at the five big talking points for next week's big event.  Get the Ultimate Guide here: https://shop1.racingpost.com/products/the-cheltenham-ultimate-guide-2025?_pos=1&_sid=8cd0084d3&_ss=r

The planned abolition of greyhound racing in Wales is among the topics discussed in the latest edition of The Front Page. Lee Mottershead, Jonathan Harding and Matthew Rennie debate the Welsh government's announcement and ask whether British horse racing should be offering more vocal support to the increasingly endangered greyhound racing industry. This week's edition also looks back on a weekend of major races in Britain, Ireland and Saudi Arabia before the team debates more of last week's big stories and asks if Dan Skelton is right when he says the Grand National needs to be moved.

This week the Front Page team are talking about revolutionising betting, training turnarounds and changing habits among Cheltenham racegoers. The show opens with a tribute to Michael O'Sullivan, the 24-year-old jockey who tragically died following a fall at Thurles earlier in the month. Join Racing Post editor Tom Kerr, Peter Scargill and Jon Harding for all that and more.

We are now just four weeks away from the start of the Cheltenham Festival - and this week's edition of The Front Page is a must for festival fans. Lee Mottershead, Jonathan Harding and Liam Headd kick things off by reviewing Super Saturday at Newbury, where the William Hill Hurdle was dominated by Joyeuese. A change to the rules looks set to keep her away from Cheltenham. Does that rule need changing? Willie Mullins is set for another fantastic festival, as was obvious when he paraded some of his likely runners last week. How many winners will he have and which ones will they be? We end the show by paying tribute to the Aga Khan and reporting on a Westminster debate that further exposed the ignorance of some MPs when it comes to gambling.

Motorsport legend Brian Redman talks to Jim Roller and previews the 2025 edition of his ‘Targa 66'. Paul Jurd looks back to the first-ever Daytona 500, which was more dramatic than any Hollywood movie could have come up with and Paul Tarsey leads a somewhat off-the-wall discussion about the Ecclestone Collection.

Join Maddy Playle, Chris Cook and Jonathan Harding to discuss a game-changing week in the racing world.  The panel discuss an array of electric performances at the Dublin Racing Festival and their likely impact on the Cheltenham Festival. Jonathan covers the excellent chasing performances of Galopin Des Champs, Majborough, Ballyburn and Solness, while Maddy picks the bones out of State Man's win and red-hot novice efforts from Final Demand and Kopek Des Bordes. Chris calls for your input on the Big Punting Survey as he underlines why it is so important to collate meaningful data on the major issues facing punters at the moment.

On this week's show: what did we learn from Constitution Hill's Cheltenham return? Are trainers right to threaten a boycott of TV interviews? And is British racing unfairly maligned?  Join Racing Post editor Tom Kerr, Lambourn correspondent Liam Headd and reporter Matt Rennie for this week's big stories and lots more. 

This week's edition of The Front Page kicks off with debate about Jonbon following his latest dominant victory at Ascot. Britain's highest-rated chaser is unbeaten away from Cheltenham, where all three of his defeats have occurred. Should that worry punters thinking about backing him at short odds for the Queen Mother Champion Chase? Lee Mottershead, Maddy Playle and Jonathan Harding consider that big festival question before discussing yet more examples of punters encountering crazy interference from bookmakers due to affordability checks. Should they really be asking us how well we are sleeping? Like most good news bulletins, the programme ends with the weather, as the panel asks whether last week's controversial Ludlow abandonment strengthens the argument for changing the way in which inspection decisions are made.

Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!This week the Red Mist group discusses a lot of big news that broke across all of the major racing series as we're encroaching upon the beginning of the 2025 racing season! NASCAR had some big rules released with some that were quite controversial. F1 announced that Spa has extended its contract but is doing so as a rotational race event in the coming years. IndyCar teams announce more driver lineups and unveils some liveries for the upcoming season. Finally IMSA teams are off to Daytona for this year's ROAR and Rolex 24!Coming up this week: Chili Bowl, 6 Hours of Abu-Dhabi, & ROAR before the 24

The Front Page this week tackles some of the most fundamental issues facing the sport - including one that has impacted the man at the head of British racing's governing body. BHA chair Joe Saumarez Smith spoke to the Racing Post about his personal experience of being caught up in betting checks and account restrictions, issues that bedevil so many other punters. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Scott Burton reflect on Saumarez Smith's comments and his hope that they might make the government and Gambling Commission think hard about their actions and policies. Another big issue facing British racing is Ireland's jumps domination. That was evident once again in the first set of entries for the Cheltenham Festival and, in particular, the presence of only five British-trained horses in the Gold Cup. The panel discusses that and then looks at the positives and negatives coming out of the Racing Post's five-part Project Spotlight series that set out to discover what a range of people think about the sport.

Joe Hale, President of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum, tells Jim Roller about the sale of some vehicles from the museum's collection. The first car to go under the hammer will be the ex-Fangio and ex-Moss Mercedes W196 Streamliner with an expected sale of $50 Million! Paul Jurd reviews the career of Giancarlo Baghetti who won his first-ever Grand Prix, and asks why the comparative unknown got a factory Ferrari drive.

The best chasers, the best hurdlers and some of the worst weather are the discussion points in the new year's opening edition of The Front Page. Lee Mottershead, David Jennings and James Stevens spend the bulk of the programme reviewing some fantastic festive racing.  Is Galopin Des Champs now a good thing for a Gold Cup? Does Constitution Hill deserve to be odds-on for the Champion Hurdle? And which race will Brighterdaysahead run in at the festival? All those topics and many more are tackled as the boys pinpoint where they think some of Cheltenham's top prizes will be heading. They also debate the spate of late abandonments that left owners and trainers frustrated - and ITV with no racing to broadcast on Saturday afternoon.

This week's edition of The Front Page asks if the raceday experience needs to be improved - and also looks ahead to some of the year's very best racedays. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Maddy Playle discuss David Jennings' latest Racing Post column, which argued a day at the races is nowhere near as interesting as it should be. The panel debates what racecourses can do to keep customers entertained. There will be no shortage of thrilling racing entertainment over Christmas, when the sport's fans could be treated to a thrilling Kempton showdown between Constitution Hill and Lossiemouth. We look forward to that clash, the King George and all the top-notch fare set to be served up in Britain and Ireland. The programme also examines the speech made at last week's Gimcrack Dinner by Racecourse Media Group chair Conor Grant, who pulled no punches in his assessment of British racing's current state.

On today's show, our expert panel of Tom Kerr, Peter Scargill and Jon Harding discusses racing's £3bn betting black hole that emerged last week, what caused it, what it means for the sport and what can be done about it. Also on the agenda is Jonbon v Energumene, Hong Kong International Races, the BHA's new acting CEO and a row over female facilities in weighing rooms.

We complete our conversation with Derek Warwick. We talk more about his Formula One career and his stellar sportscar drives which brought him a World Championship and a win at Le Mans. Regular contributor Les Thacker tells us about Derek's early days in the Toleman Formula Two team which led to the amazing exploits in Grand Prix racing, all under Les's BP Motorsport banner. We also hear from John Mayhead who talks about ‘Goldie' Gardener who was perhaps the least known, but in some ways the most successful record breakers of the '30s 40s and who was still breaking LSRs in the 1960s.

Did the John Durkan mark a changing of the guard in the staying chase division? Has Britain still got a realistic Gold Cup hope? And can Constitution Hill ever recapture his former brilliance after another setback? To discuss all these big stories and lots more join Racing Post editor Tom Kerr and Richard Forristal, Lewis Porteous and Liam Headd.

Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and James Stevens examine the potential significance of the new David Power Jockeys' Cup, which kicked off at a Cheltenham November meeting that delivered a famous win for Paul Nicholls but ended in desperately sad fashion.  The panel reflects on all that happened over the three days. Alphonse Le Grande is once again the Cesarewitch winner after being reinstated following an appeals panel review of the whip disqualification that led to Manxman being awarded first place. The team considers what the saga means for the sport's whip rules. The programme ends by assessing the appointment of Lord Charles Allen to chair the BHA board and considers how effective he might be in the role.

Dave Lowe hosts the Front Page this week where he is joined by France correspondent Scott Burton and deputy industry editor Peter Scargill to discuss the big topics of the week. The panel start by reflecting on the weekend's racing and the surprise plan to target the Stayers' Hurdle with Vauban, Scott provides an eye-witness account of the march by France's racing industry through the streets of Paris to protest a rise in betting tax, and they finish with what lessons British racing must learn from the stranded stalls fiasco at Chelmsford.

Derek Warwick remembers his times in the junior formulae, also as a Le Mans winner and right up to date as a Driver Steward at Formula One races around the world. Goodwood TT winner, Mike Whitaker, gives Paul Jurd the lowdown on seven years of trying to get his TVR onto the top of the charts and Bob Evans recalls his career which saw him driving in Formula One for BRM and Lotus. His views on some of the 1970s team managers is worth a listen on its own!

Join Maddy Playle, James Stevens and Richard Forristal to discuss an important week in the racing world. The panel pay tribute to legendary writer and broadcaster Alastair Down, who passed away a week after the Cheltenham press room was named after him.  Richard unpacks a disaster at Del Mar for City Of Troy, whose Breeders' Cup Classic bid almost instantaneously went up in smoke.  James spells out what Labour's budget means for the sport and explains why smaller trainers, owners and breeders are set to struggle.

We were back at Cheltenham for the first time this jumps season and on this week's edition of the Front Page our expert panel kicks things off with a discussion about what we learned from the two-day meeting, including star performers and how changes to the racegoer experience went down. We then dive into the drama from Del Mar, where City Of Troy will bid for Breeders' Cup Classic glory on Saturday. Does our panel think he can make history for Aidan O'Brien? Finally, we turn to the weekend Flat action and how recent action in Britain and France impacted markets for next year's Classics.

This week's edition of The Front Page looks back on a great Qipco British Champions Day, looks forward to the new core jumps season and digs deep into a problem troubling many punters. Lee Mottershead, Maddy Playle and Jonathan Harding start the programme with analysis of Saturday's action at Ascot, where Anmaat, Charyn and Kyprios dazzled in front of almost 30,000 spectators. Crowds will soon be flocking to the big winter jumps meetings. The Racing Post has previewed the new campaign in The Big Jump Off supplement, which the panel uses to look forward to a campaign in which more domination by Willie Mullins is on the cards. The programme ends by asking why some punters are finding it hard to withdraw money from their betting accounts. It's a real problem and was highlighted in a Racing Post special report last week.

Kia Joorabchian's colossal spending spree, a controversial Cesarewitch and fears over a tax raid on bookmakers are all up for discussion in this week's edition of The Front Page. Lee Mottershead, Jonathan Harding and David Jennings kick things off by looking at last week's explosive yearling sale in Newmarket, where Amo Racing's Joorabchian spent over £24 million, in the process thwarting bloodstock superpowers Coolmore and Godolphin. We examine why he did it and where it might lead? Next up is a review of the Future Champions Festival at Newmarket, where Alphonse Le Grande won a Cesarewitch he might lose on Tuesday due to his rider's use of the whip. We ask if the system needs changing and reflect on the Dewhurst Stakes and Fillies' Mile. Finally, we look at reports suggesting the government is considering major increases in betting duty that could decimate British racing's finances. We assess just how bad that could be for the sport.

Paul Tarsey talks to one of the greatest racing drivers of all time, Sir Jackie Stewart about racing, both now and then. Jim Roller hears from George Levy about his book about Jim Hall and his Chaparal cars and Nick Whale brings interesting thoughts on the current auction scene.

Sweeping changes to the Cheltenham Festival, a lack of change in British racing politics and top-class action on the track are all on the table in this week's edition. Lee Mottershead, David Jennings and Peter Scargill kick things off by examining the full raft of changes made to the festival.  Next up we dig deep into the Racing Post's special report on the problems in British racing's governance structure and ask if the problem is the system or the people within it? Finally, there's a look back to the weekend's Group 1 action at Newmarket and a look ahead to Sunday's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.

The axing of a Grade 1 race at the Cheltenham Festival, the world's most famous Flat horse and more ominous news about the black market are the topics debated in this week's edition of The Front Page. Lee Mottershead, David Jennings and James Stevens start the show by following up Peter Scargill's scoop that revealed Jockey Club plans to turn the festival's Turners Novices' Chase and Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase into handicaps. Next up we look at City Of Troy's Southwell gallop, consider what it told us about his chance of winning the Breeders' Cup Classic and ask why some people seemed so annoyed the gallop even happened. Finally, the panel takes stock of alarming new numbers that suggest Britain's betting black market is even bigger than previously feared.
