The Final Furlong Podcast

Is The New Lion Cheltenham’s Next Champion? Ballyburn Dilemma. Where Next for Majborough? | Part 2


Listen Later

Emmet Kennedy is joined by racing analyst Adam Mills and jockey George Gorman for Part 2 of The Final Furlong Podcast’s comprehensive Cheltenham Festival Review, focusing exclusively on the standout novice chasers and hurdlers.


We analyse the Michael O'Sullivan Supreme Novices' Hurdle star Kopek Des Bordes, alongside placed contenders William Munny and Romeo Coolio, discussing what lies ahead for them and identifying beaten horses primed for handicap success. Adam makes a compelling case for Turners Novices' Hurdle winner The New Lion as next year's Champion Hurdle star, while the entire team agrees The Yellow Clay and Final Demand could dominate Cheltenham in seasons to come.


Attention then shifts to key runners from the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle—Jasmin De Vaux, The Big Westerner, Derryhassen Paddy, and Wendigo—and we pinpoint future stars in Air Of Entitlement for the Mares' Chase and Sixandahalf as a potential Champion Hurdler.


Plus, we explain why shock Triumph Hurdle winner Poniros deserves serious respect, discuss the dramatic Arkle Chase victory of Jango Baie and its implications for beaten favourite Majborough, and debate whether Ballyburn should revert to hurdles after a costly defeat in the Brown Advisory Novices' Chase. Could Lecky Watson emerge as a Gold Cup contender?


Finally, the team highlights overlooked Champion Bumper runners and key handicappers to follow ahead of Aintree and Punchestown.


A must-listen deep dive into racing's next generation of champions.
