On the show today, Nick is joined by ITV’s Matt Chapman to cover all the racing news from around the world, starting with William Haggas who’s set for a busy weekend with two runners at Rosehill in Australia, including Dubai Honour and fancies at the Lincoln meeting at Doncaster. William also discusses some of the exciting three year olds in the yards heading into the 2026 turf season. Legendary rider Patrick Valenzuela explains why at the age of 63, he’s making a comeback in the saddle, after nearly 10 years out. On the topic of jockeys, trainer David Loughnane reflects on the ban Billy Loughnane picked up at Wolverhampton last night aboard one of his horses that could see him spend three weeks on the sidelines. Finally, ahead of the Dubai World Cup meeting tomorrow, Florent Geroux looks forward to defending his crown in the big one aboard Hit Show.
