We're ending this series with a bang!

Coming from Tattersalls in Newmarket once more, the world’s oldest bloodstock auctioneer, Francesca Cumani and Vanessa Ryle record this episode inside the famous red room, which has hosted some well-to-do dinners over the years, featuring our very own Vanessa (and her intoxicated mother... Listen to find out more!)

Vanessa gets stuck into some more funny stories from her time working at Tattersalls and they discuss her friend Shirley Anderson-Jolag, who last year became the first female bloodstock auctioneer in Britain.

As they get ready for an end of series break, Francesca tells all about her forthcoming visit to Australia, where she will be presenting at the Melbourne Cup carnival and catching up with friends and family while she's there. Vanessa wants a campaign to get her down under herself - but in the mean time she will have to settle for America for the Breeders Cup. So there will be no shortage of stories for when they return!

The women also delve into race day fashion and explore why they think it’s important for the talent to not just play the part, but look the part as well. They also take the opportunity to throw Franscesca’s fellow ITV presenters, Rishi Persad, Ed Chamberlin and Jason Weaver under the bus with their own choices of fashion (sorry lads), in a twist on Cesca Corrects!

There’s an extensive question time, where the women answer a range of audience questions, such as who has been their biggest inspiration in their lives, who would they must like to interview in racing and what they think of accessibility for disabled racegoers.

There’s a few titbits, Ryled Up and they go down some rabbit holes for good measure - being the end of series of course!

Tune in, hold tight, and enjoy the ride.

It’s episode 7 of the third series of the Running Loose Podcast!

Coming from Tattersalls in Newmarket, the world’s oldest bloodstock auctioneer (dating back to 1766), Francesca Cumani and Vanessa Ryle record this episode inside the famous horse sales ring ahead of the auditions.

The ladies also discuss the upcoming yearling (essentially young horse) sales which occur isnide this ring, involving Book 1 - 3 horses - and there is a lot of money that will exchange hands. But what does it take to have a successful racehorse? Listen on to find out...

Of course, Vanessa has plenty of Tattersall tales from her from her days of working there in her very early days of racing, including being rebellious with her outfits. The location is also familiar to Francesca with her parents stud just around the corner - so there are plenty of stories to be told this week.

Also hot on the agenda this week is all things National Hunt and the Flat race seasons - as well as Francesca’s recent filming with legendary racehorse owner Nicky Henderson with Old Gold Racing, where she filmed a day in the life at his yard.

Away from racing, Francesca updates us on her house renovation - and shares a funny story from the wedding of her stylist and friend Sarah, involving white trousers and gravy - as well as a very painful trip to the dentist! Vanessa reflects on her very busy period recently and how she has been revelling in some quiet time with her horse Cap Du Mathan, the ex-racehorse she got from Paul Nicholls, which you may recall from a previous episode.

There’s no time for questions this time around - but standby for some on the last episode of the current series next week.

Tune in, hold tight, and enjoy the ride.

Welcome aboard another episode of the Running Loose Podcast.

Coming from Vanessa’s local patch once more, the picturesque Culworth Grounds, the ladies tackle a range of issues, in and out of the world or horse racing.

Francesca gives us the lowdown on the big forthcoming horse racing meet (4th & 5th October) called the Prix l'Arc de Triomphe in Paris - although she explains why her pitch to present from there fell flat with the ITV Racing bosses!

They also take the opportunity to reminisce about visiting France, Vanessa hilariously trying to get by without speaking any of the language - although Francesca reminds us she speaks virtually fluent French.

Vanessa updates us all things Team Chasing and how her progress is going. Find out why her style makes her feel all erect… like a Policeman! They discuss how listeners can get involved in horse and event racing as well - and Francesca surprises Vanessa with an invite to an Old Gold event...

There’s our new American racing segment as part of our association with 1/ST, which includes a further look ahead to the Breeders Cup and the 2025 Keeneland Fall Meet, which runs throughout October and has huge prizes up for grabs.

The ladies also look ahead to the thoroughbred horse sales at Tattersalls (Start on 7th October) and Goffs (Start on 18th October) and discuss how it all works.

There’s time for a very quick question time - but just don’t ask about Francesca’s short hair anymore - or Vanessa will get all Ryled Up... Talking of which, there's another version of All Ryled Up too!

Tune in, hold tight, and enjoy the ride.

Welcome aboard another episode of the Running Loose Podcast.

Recording from Vanessa’s local patch, the picturesque Culworth Grounds, the ladies dip loosely into the world of horse racing once again.

We’re surprised Vanessa could even fit this record into her schedule, as her summer closes in quote spectacular fashion - with a wedding speech to prepare!

Francesca gives us the lowdown on all things Doncaster races, where she suffered a fashion fail during a very windy day. Good old British weather, right? Find out which outfit did not go down well from Vanessa though…

Meanwhile, Vanessa also reveals which celebrities she met on her visit to the Racehorse to Eventer Challenge Cup at Cornbury House Horse Trial, which was held in Oxfordshire earlier in September. Hint, she saw a Spice Girl there!

They talk American racing, with Vanessa set to head over to the States for the Breeders Cup in November - and take the chance to introduce our new tie-in from over the pond, 1/ST Racing, to help raise awareness in the lead up to this big meeting.

Finally, find out happened when Francesca came to stay at Vanessa’s!

Tune in, hold tight, and enjoy the ride.
