231: Blocked by bookmakers - BHA chair speaks out | The Front Page | Horse Racing News | Racing Post
The Front Page this week tackles some of the most fundamental issues facing the sport - including one that has impacted the man at the head of British racing's governing body.
BHA chair Joe Saumarez Smith spoke to the Racing Post about his personal experience of being caught up in betting checks and account restrictions, issues that bedevil so many other punters.
Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Scott Burton reflect on Saumarez Smith's comments and his hope that they might make the government and Gambling Commission think hard about their actions and policies.
Another big issue facing British racing is Ireland's jumps domination. That was evident once again in the first set of entries for the Cheltenham Festival and, in particular, the presence of only five British-trained horses in the Gold Cup.
The panel discusses that and then looks at the positives and negatives coming out of the Racing Post's five-part Project Spotlight series that set out to discover what a range of people think about the sport.

229: The Christmas racing wrap - and wacky weather | The Front Page | Horse Racing News | Racing Post
The best chasers, the best hurdlers and some of the worst weather are the discussion points in the new year’s opening edition of The Front Page.
Lee Mottershead, David Jennings and James Stevens spend the bulk of the programme reviewing some fantastic festive racing.
Is Galopin Des Champs now a good thing for a Gold Cup? Does Constitution Hill deserve to be odds-on for the Champion Hurdle? And which race will Brighterdaysahead run in at the festival?
All those topics and many more are tackled as the boys pinpoint where they think some of Cheltenham’s top prizes will be heading. They also debate the spate of late abandonments that left owners and trainers frustrated - and ITV with no racing to broadcast on Saturday afternoon.
