How can it be that in 2025 female jockeys still have to enter male changing rooms to properly do their job? 

That is one of the big questions asked in this week's edition of The Front Page, which looks at some of the powerful revelations that emerged in the Racing Post's special report on the appalling standard of some British weighing rooms. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Liam Headd ask why the majority of tracks have not moved faster to improve facilities for riders and why the BHA has seemingly regulated racecourses so meekly.

The show kicks off by reflecting on a weekend of quality jumps action at Ayr, where Captain Cody's victory in the Scottish Grand National left Willie Mullins ever closer to denying Dan Skelton a first trainers' championship. We also look back on a day of spring trials at Newbury and ask if any future Classic winners were in action.

The programme ends by looking at the 2024-25 Racing Post Jumps Horse of the Year poll. Lee, Chris and Liam reveal where their vote would go but this is a public vote and it's Racing Post readers who will have the final say.
