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.
