Emmet Kennedy is joined by Adam Mills and Jamie Wrenn to review a fascinating weekends racing, beginning with déjà vu in the Fighting Fifth: for the third time in four starts, Constitution Hill fell again — and so did his major rival The New Lion. At 22/1, Golden Ace picked up her second Grade 1 in eight months.
So the big question is this: is Constitution Hill finished… or is there a way back for Nicky Henderson’s superstar?

We break down the race in forensic detail, ask whether The New Lion actually enhanced his Champion Hurdle claims despite falling, and debate what the future holds for Anzadam.

Then:
Three Hatton’s Graces. Six Grade 1s. Still only eight.
Are racing fans guilty of underrating Teahupoo every single season? And what do the panel make of Ballyburn suddenly cut to 2/1 for the Stayers Hurdle? Is he really the right favourite… or was Impose Toi the more convincing long-distance prospect at Newbury?

We then head to Fairyhouse:

Romeo Coolio gave Gordon Elliott a tenth Drinmore, but one of the team thinks he’s Gordon’s next megastar – and the other two strongly disagree.

Wendigo vs No Questions Asked produced a proper battle in the John Francome – but what does it mean for next steps?

Jimmy Du Seuil, rated 155 over hurdles, jumped like a veteran on chase debut. But does that justify 10/1 for the Brown Advisory?

Plus reaction to a huge few days on both sides of the world:

Mange Tout (G3 Juvenile Hurdle)

Koktail Brut (Royal Bond)

Tutti Quanti (Gerry Feilden)

Panic Attack (Gold Cup Handicap Chase at 16/1)

And an extraordinary Japan Cup: Calandagan travels halfway around the world, beats the best of Japan, and bags a £2.3 million bonus. Adam explains why trainer Francis Graffard is a genius.
