Should Cheltenham have been abandoned when a hole in the track was found?
Join Racing Post journalists James Stevens, Maddy Playle and Liam Headd to dissect last weekend's Trials Day card at Cheltenham.
The hole in the home straight led to safety concerns at the track but racing went ahead, while the delay meant it was too dark for a photo-finish.
Lambourn correspondent Liam reports the latest on Sir Gino after he sustained a season-ending injury, while the panel reflect on the Cheltenham clues learned over the weekend.
The show also looks ahead to the Dublin Racing Festival this weekend, with more big jumpers in action.

James Stevens is joined by Matt Rennie, Graeme Rodway and Unibet's Ed Nicholson to break down all the key talking points from the ITV action this weekend.
The team review Trials Day at Cheltenham, look ahead to the Festival picture, and analyse the Grade 2 Mares’ Hurdle at Doncaster, with insight, opinion and plenty of debate throughout.

A day of drama at Ascot, spiky words from a top Irish jumps figure and the latest chapter in the Constitution Hill saga are all covered in this week's edition of The Front Page.
Jonbon had a day to remember in the Clarence House Chase but he triumphed under James Bowen, not Harry Cobden, after JP McManus's next retained rider was injured in an earlier race. 
Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Jonathan Harding look at what the win means for Jonbon and debate some dismissive comments from Marine Nationale's owner-trainer Barry Connell. 
They also ask what the future holds for Cobden and Mark Walsh, who has been McManus's principal rider in Ireland.
As well as reflecting on the other weekend action, which included a devastating victory by Old Park Star, we examine a run of odds-on defeats for Willie Mullins-trained horses, a new Flat target for Constitution Hill and the ongoing stand-off between BHA chair Lord Allen and Britain's racecourses.
