The Front Page: racing goes primetime with new ITV series
Lee Mottershead, Maddy Playle and Scott Burton celebrate the publication of The Big Jump Off, the Racing Post's fantastic 72-page jumps season guide, with plenty of chat about the coming months in an edition of The Front Page that also focuses on three of the last week's biggest stories.
The team kicks things off by talking about Frankie Dettori's remarkable farewell to British racing at Ascot on Saturday - before asking if Dettori really was saying goodbye.
The programme then moves on to our Monday exclusive about the sport having succeeded in its long-term wish to secure a programme that might mirror F1's Drive To Survive. We ask how significant the new ITV docuseries will be.
Finally, we look at the findings of the industry's Right To Bet survey and highlight how they once again underline the devastating impact of affordability checks.
Don't miss 72 pages of unbeatable coverage of the 2023-24 jumps season in our unmissable supplement, free in Racing Post newspaper on Monday 23rd October or it's available to order here.
