Emmet Kennedy is joined by former multiple Grade 1 and Cheltenham Festival-winning jockey Aidan Coleman to review the key races and hot topics from the past few days. They discuss Quilixios’ victory in the Barberstown Castle Chase (Grade 3) and whether he’s been underestimated by the bookmakers for Cheltenham, plus they ponder if Marine Nationale is still a credible contender for the Queen Mother Champion Chase.

Aidan shares his thoughts on the Haldon Gold Cup, where JPR One and Djelo fought out a thrilling finish, and offers high praise for one of the jockeys he believes has "the best hands of any era."

The duo also takes a closer look at Jeriko Du Reponet’s spectacular flop at Sandown, explores the potential of Farren Glory this season, and examines King Turgeon’s Aintree win for a resurgent David Pipe. We hear about Rubaud’s chasing prospects with Paul Nicholls, the future of Saint Sam, and how the chaos that unfolded at Chelmsford can never be allowed to happen again.
