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. There’s only one problem:Will the weather let racing happen at all? Ice, frost, inspections and uncertainty hover over the cards… But if we go ahead — we’ve got some serious value lined up. 🟥 THE WEEKEND’S BIG BETTING HEADLINES Andy Newton: Confident 4/1 NAP Emmet Kennedy: 5/1 NAP to kick off 2026 Peter Michael: Bet of the weekend — 6/1 George Gorman: Bold 10/1 NAP — “completely the wrong price!” This is proper price-led analysis, not favourites for the sake of favourites. 🟦 RACES PREVIEWED Kempton 3:17 — Lanzarote Handicap Hurdle 2:05 — Horse Racing Bet Builder Handicap Chase 2:40 — Silviniaco Conti Chase (G2) Warwick 2:55 — Classic Handicap Chase 1:52 — Hampton Novices’ Chase (G2) 2:25 — Racing Each Way Extra Handicap Hurdle 3:32 — Pertemps Network Handicap Hurdle Fairyhouse 1:40 — Dan & Joan Moore Memorial Handicap Chase (G3) Form logic, pace angles, ground profiles — and full agreement that luck in running might be the biggest factor of all this weekend. 🟨 BAD WEATHER = BETTING OPPORTUNITY Non-runners, changing ground, late gambles.
