The road to Royal Ascot is heating up — and The Final Furlong Podcast team has all the angles. Emmet Kennedy is joined by Laura Joy, Adam Mills, Jamie Wrenn and Archie Brooks to look back on a brilliant weekend of flat racing with an eye on Group 1 targets and long-range Royal Ascot punts. We kick off with Lead Artist's Group 1 Lockinge win, and debate who's best placed for the Queen Anne Stakes — Rosallion, Notable Speech or Dancing Gemini? The team weighs in, and Laura names a 10/1 shot she believes is the bet right now. Babouche, Ger Lyons' Group 1-winning juvenile, impressed in the Lacken Stakes — but is she worth backing for the Commonwealth Cup? We also debate the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes, with a confident 33/1 tip, plus takes on French raiders and Aidan's Aussie-bred wildcard. Can See The Fire be a Juddmonte International filly? What next for Rebel's Romance and Kyprios after their latest runs? And we scout potential Royal Ascot 2yo stars — including an Albany outsider to watch.

It's a weekend packed with clues, class and value — and The Final Furlong Podcast team is ready. Emmet Kennedy is joined by George Gorman, Andy Newton and Jake Wilkes to preview a brilliant few days of racing — headlined by the Group 1 Boylesports Lockinge Stakes, where the team is split: one is swinging for an 18/1 outsider, while another is supremely confident in a 4/1 play. In the always-intriguing Trade Nation London Gold Cup Handicap, George believes he's found a "handicap plot", and Andy makes the same horse his next best bet at 7/1. We then turn to Naas on Sunday, where potential Royal Ascot contenders are on show — and Jake lands on a double-figure priced selection he's extremely bullish about. The team also reacts to the latest curveball in the Derby picture: The Lion In Winter's defeat. Can Aidan O'Brien pull another late rabbit out of the hat after yet another first-time flop?
On this packed episode of The Final Furlong Podcast, Emmet Kennedy is joined by Liam Firkin, Jamie Wrenn and George Gorman to unpack a week of drama, dominance and divisive opinions in the build-up to Epsom. We begin in France with heartbreak for Basher Watts, Kieran Shoemark and Charlie Fellowes as She's Perfect is controversially disqualified from the French 1000 Guineas, handing the Emirates Poule d'Essai des Pouliches to Zarigana, who emulates her famous granddam in style. But did the stewards get it right — and should the team appeal? From there, it's all roads to Epsom, as Ballydoyle's iron grip on the Classic trials continues at Chester, Lingfield and Leopardstown. The panel debates which of Aidan O'Brien's stars are true Derby or Oaks contenders, and which are better Royal Ascot material. The podcast is split — with two of the team pushing hard for a 10/1 Oaks filly, while the others are outright dismissive. Could O'Brien's best Derby hope actually emerge from York in the shape of The Lion In Winter? And is one Classic trial runner being criminally underestimated at 33/1 for Epsom? Plus: Two juveniles to follow for Royal Ascot, and a look at whether East India Dock can follow up his Chester Cup heroics at the summer showpiece.

Koningsdag betekent voor koningin Máxima: een hoed op! Ze heeft een riante collectie en een aantal bijzondere exemplaren daarvan zijn afkomstig van een prachtig zaakje aan het Noordeinde: de hoedenzaak van Berry Rutjes. Een van de mooiste ontwerpen was wel de hoed die ze maakte voor Máxima's aanwezigheid op Royal Ascot, waar ze samen met koningin Elizabeth in de koets zat. De hoed en Berry werden wereldnieuws. En natuurlijk: de paus, prinses Isabella, Santiago de Compostela... En de etiquette: mag je je gasten ontvangen op je sloffen?

When Luke Nolen's in full swing it's difficult to get him to sit still long enough to conduct an interview. Currently he's on the sidelines indefinitely following a freakish fall at Geelong early in December. Although frustrated and in some discomfort, the champion jockey gave us all the time we needed to get a podcast “in the can”. What a career it's been for the Victorian born horseman whose riding record is one of Australian racing's most enviable. Almost 2000 wins, 40 Gr 1's, three Melbourne jockey's premierships and two Scobie Breasley medals. There was an awful lot to talk about. Luke begins by taking us through the horror Geelong fall which was attributable to a broken stirrup leather. He talks of surgery already completed and what lies ahead. Luke reflects on early days when his dad Tal took the family all over Australia looking for suitable job opportunities. The jockey talks of school days and an aversion to study. He pays tribute to Tal, to his late mother Margaret and brother Shaun. Luke looks back on a move back to Victoria when Tal was able to arrange an apprenticeship with master mentor Gerald Egan. Like most apprentices he hasn't forgotten the buzz around his very first win at Albury in 1998. Luke talks of the reputation he quickly earned as an unflappable young rider. He remembers two nicknames he picked up in his youth, and the circumstances behind their creation. He looks back on time spent with former champion trainer Brian Mayfield-Smith at Flemington. Luke was thrilled beyond belief to win his first Gr 1 race for the maestro Bart Cummings. He clearly remembered the first ride he ever had for Peter Moody. The jockey talks of his enduring relationship with Moody and gives the reasons that partnership has stood the test of time. By his own admission Luke says he never tires of talking about Black Caviar. He won 22 of 25 on the champion mare. He agrees Jarrod Noske and Ben Melham who rode her in the other three wins will have something to tell their grandchildren. Luke says Black Caviar was an uncomplicated race mare. He pinpoints the best of her 25 wins. Looks back on her near defeat at Royal Ascot in 2012. He says she was battling niggling muscle issues on the day. He talks of Black Caviar's tendency to “come back underneath him” in the closing stages. He also heaps praise on runner up Moonlight Cloud who went within a head of destroying the great mare's iconic record. Luke talks of the champion's debilitating fight with laminitis and subsequent euthanisation. To add to the tragedy Black Caviar's Snitzel colt also died. The star jockey highlights a few personal favourites from the long list of outstanding horses he's ridden beginning with Typhoon Tracey. He looks back on Peter Moody's decision to walk away from racing following his suspension on cobalt charges. Luke acknowledges the deeds of elite gallops I Wish I Win, and El Segundo. He pays tribute to Alicia his wife of 17 years, and children Dane and Kailey. Luke says he's grateful to have three Melbourne jockey's premierships and two Scobie Breasley medals on his CV. We close the podcast by referring to a quote from Gerard Whateley's 2012 biography on Black Caviar. Gerard goes behind the public persona in identifying the real Luke Nolen.

Also on today's show, Sam Thomas looks ahead to the Fighting Fifth with rising star Lump Sum, while Timeform's Dab Barber considers the Gold Cup and Champion Hurdle divisions in light of last weekend. Nick talks to Shirley Anderson-Jolag about becoming the first woman to take to the rostrum at Tattersalls, while Coolmore Australia's Tom Magnier is our Weatherbys Guest and has news of exciting sprinters set to tackle Royal Ascot next year.

The story of the Freedman era is one of racing's all time best - four enthusiastic young brothers who made an amazing journey from the family stud farm at Yass to the establishment of a Victorian based training powerhouse. Lee held sway as trainer with Anthony, Richard and Michael handling crucial roles in the background. Together they had an enormous impact on Australian racing for three decades. Lee won seven Melbourne trainer's premierships and was runner up six times. Today the boys are all training under their own banners with Lee opting for a much quieter life on the Gold Coast. The former leader of the FBI was very gracious with his time on this week's podcast. He begins by berating his talents as a golfer. Lee talks about his current 31 horse team, a fraction of the number he trained in the busiest days of the FBI. He talks of the wide choice of race meetings he has from his Gold Coast base. Lee takes us back to early days at Hardwicke Stud near Yass, where he and his siblings gained sound education under the supervision of father Tony. He delights in telling the story of his first win as a trainer with a quirky but very talented grey called Sitting Bull. It was hard to keep news of the horse's talent under wraps. Lee says his training career actually began at Warwick Farm. He looks back on a relocation to Flemington and a mare called Sauna - the daughter of Loosen Up who put the Freedmans on the map. Lee hasn't forgotten the thrill of a maiden Gr 1 win. He reflects on the rapid rise of the FBI and the simple theory he had about stress management. We needed to get started on Lee's reminiscences of the many wonderful horses to come through the Freedman operation. Who better to begin with than the incomparable Makybe Diva. She arrived in the Freedman camp having won 8 races for David Hall including her first Melbourne Cup. Lee recalls his expectations. He reflects on his first win with the mighty mare, the 2004 Melbourne Cup. The trainer recalls the mare's dominance in the autumn and spring of 2005, and the memorable comments he made in a TV interview after her third Cup win- comments which have passed into folklore. Lee gives his view on why she was such an athlete. The great trainer looks back on wonderful journeys with crowd favourites Subzero and Doriemus, two more Melbourne Cup winners. It's not hard to tell Super Impose was one of Lee's great favourites. He shares some special memories. Lee puts into words his enormous admiration for Naturalism. The list of good horses to pass through the Freedman's hands is seemingly endless. He sings the praises of Mahogany and Schillaci. The Golden Slipper was a mighty race for the Freedmans in the 1990's. Lee talks about their four consecutive wins in the famous two year old race. Durbridge is another marvellous horse to get the thumbs up from his former trainer. The legendary trainer will surprise some when he says his greatest racetrack thrill came outside Australia. He looks back on his Royal Ascot journey with Miss Andretti. Lee used some of Australia's greatest jockeys during the golden years of the Freedman reign. He's prepared to single one of them out for special praise. He speaks with pride of daughters Emma and Georgia. Lee pays tribute to his greatest ever supporter, late mother Del who passed just two years ago. He pays tribute to Anthony, Richard and Michael who have each forged great individual careers. A podcast with Lee Freedman is long overdue. We're delighted to finally get it done.

Join Emmet Kennedy, Sam Morgan, and legendary bookmaker Geoff Banks as they discuss the key talking points from Goodwood, beginning with Notable Speech landing his second Group 1 win in the Sussex Stakes. Is he set for more big race success, or did he capitalise on the absence of some key rivals? And what happened to Henry Longfellow? Things worked out much better for Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore with Opera Singer in the Nassau Stakes, but can she land our 20/1 ante-post tip in the Arc? Geoff has some strong views in opposition. Jan Brueghel remains unbeaten after winning the Gordon Stakes, we ask does he deserve to be the favourite for the St Leger? With the firepower at Aidan O'Brien's disposal, should the race be run on the Ballydoyle gallops? Big Evs took his revenge on Royal Ascot heroine Asfoora, but we explain why the Aussie sprinter is the one to watch at York. Plus, Aidan O'Brien unleashed another beautifully bred filly who could be a classic contender at Goodwood. Find out why she could be worth a bet at 20/1 for the Epsom Oaks. Cassie Tully dropped some truth bombs on racing in a brilliantly written piece in the TDN, but why aren't more members of Racing's media calling for action? And what is going on with the stewards in Britain? Join us for debate, insight, and plenty of craic. Join us for debate, insight, and plenty of craic.

This week, Charlotte Greenway recaps on the interview with connections of runners in the July Cup which include the the two three-year-olds at the head of the market Inisherin and Vandeek with Kevin Ryan and Ed Crisford both confident of big performances. Possibly Karl Burke's best sprinter misses the race but he does have Royal Ascot 2nd Swingalong in there and Karl thinks she could be too big a price. Finally, Eamon O'Connor explains the decision to supplement filly Tamfana for the Group 1 Grand Prix de Paris at Longchamp tomorrow and shares what sort of result they're hoping for.
Fresh from his Royal Ascot success, trainer Ed Bethell chats with Emmet Kennedy about his remarkable triumph with REGIONAL, a horse he purchased for just 3,500 guineas at the Tattersalls July Sale in 2021. Despite starting with just three races, REGIONAL has since become a Group 1 winning sprint sensation. Ed shares what stood out to him and the My Future Champion racing syndicate about the gelding by Territories at the sale, and when he knew his stable star was destined for Group 1 success. Ed also discusses the focus on speed over middle-distance horses, its long-term implications for the sport, and the need for strong leadership to guide racing in the right direction. Plus, he gives us a two-year-old to follow! Then, Jason Singh, Tattersalls Marketing Manager, provides an overview of the Tattersalls July Sale, sharing some success stories from past sales, current trends in the horse sales industry, and how international buyers and sellers influence the dynamics of the sale.

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 6:30 We're glad we took last week off. I've been watching Dark Matter on Apple TV with Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly. Chandra watched Bridgerton season three and Late Night with the Devil. She also loved Kendrick Lamar's live concert. Royals: Minutes 6:30 to 25:15 We got a photo and announcement from Princess Kate last Friday. She said she would be at Trooping but we did not expect to really see her. We wonder who has been making the decisions at Kensington Palace. We have heard for weeks that we shouldn't expect to see Kate until the autumn and maybe not all year. Her appearance at Trooping was a big surprise, especially since she missed the rehearsal. We wonder why so many fake videos and photos were released of Kate the past few weeks. The narrative after Kate's appearance was typical. Allison Pearson at the Telegraph ran a fawning over the top piece about how amazing Kate was for showing up at Trooping. The subtitle of the piece was “When lesser mortals would have stayed at home, Catherine proved that the show goes on.” It looks like Kensington Palace has taken over the messaging again as it's very tone deaf. Kate is covering People Magazine this week. King Charles' biographer Catherine Mayer gave the quote that “However difficult, or otherwise, this has been for Kate, appearing was an act of service under the terms of the institution she is part of.” Meghan sent jam and dog biscuits to Harry's best friend Nacho Figueras. Nacho posted photos of his dog, I think it's a whippet, next to the biscuits and the jam, which was labeled 2/2. Meghan was just sending a gift to a friend, it's not like she was doing it to overshadow Kate. Instead there was an article in the Daily Beast with a source who said “You just have to ask yourself, who would set out to ruin a cancer-sufferer's day? It is absolutely pathetic.” It's likely Meghan sent that jam days before anyone knew Kate would go to Trooping. I play a segment from Zoom where we talk about the royals. We saw Carole and Michael Middleton at Royal Ascot. This was surprising, because there were stories as of late last week about how they didn't even pay the insolvency firm that helped them restructure and sell Party Pieces. Kate did not go to Royal Ascot and she also didn't go to the big Order of the Garter investiture ceremony earlier this week. She let everyone know that she would not be at those ceremonies. She's expected to be at Wimbledon in early July. Comments of the Week: Minutes 25:15 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from sevenblue on the post about Kendrick Lamar's live concert on Amazon prime.Kendrick has been making hip hop history. My comment of the week is from lanne on the post about the details of Justin Timberlake's DUI arrest. Thanks for listening bitches!
As PTF takes care of Royal Ascot business this week, Mike Pribozie fills in on today's Players' Podcast. He hosts Darren "Double D" DeLucia to cover Monmouth's Late Pick 4, Jim Miller for Hawthorne's Pick 5, and Eric Solomon for the Churchill Downs Late Pick 5.
Vanessa Ryle sits down with PTF to give her thoughts on a fantastic day of racing at Royal Ascot on Friday.
Trooping the Colour is always a highlight in the royal calendar - but it was a real red letter day this year as the Princess of Wales made her first official appearance since Christmas. Pod Save the King host Ann Gripper is joined by Mirror royal editor Russell Myers to discuss Kate's return and the very personal statement released on the eve of the event. They also reflect on how Trooping went for the rest of the family, particularly as the King continues his own cancer treatment, and enjoy Royal Ascot and Garter Day. Learn more about your ad choices.
