2. Queen Elizabeth II Stakes (1m, G1)

👉 Key Angle: Stride and pace projections that could decide the race.

3. Long Distance Cup (2m, G1)

He’s the bloodstock mastermind behind over 4,000 race winners - sourcing Cheltenham Gold Cup heroes, Grand National champions, and Grade 1 stars from Native River to Envoi Allen.

But earlier this year, Tom Malone found himself in an unexpected spotlight when Paul Nicholls announced changes to his buying team. Tom reflects on that moment - the noise, the lessons, and how he chose quiet work over public defence - before turning the page to what really matters: the horses who could light up the 2025/26 Jumps season.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Emmet Kennedy goes deep with one of the most successful, straight-talking figures in bloodstock on:

🔥 The Split & The Mindset

“I was chucked under the bus” — how Tom handled the headlines and rebuilt focus.

Loyalty, reputation, and why discipline beats outrage every time.

💼 Finding the Next Superstars

How the French market and three-year-old claimers are changing the game.

Why elite Flat prices are forcing Jumps buyers to reinvent strategy.

The inside track on future stars including:
Windbeneathmywings, Gameofinches, Sober Glory, Act of Innocence,
Kingston Queen, No Drama This End, Fresh Perspective, Teeshan,
Tutti Quanti, Regent’s Stroll, Sinnatra, Bud Fox, Sticktotheplan, and Wendigo.

🧬 The Next Wave - Debutants & Hidden Gems
North Shore, Parchment, Manoir De Mirande, Fairy Park, Presley, Sapphos Word, and Werner - the unexposed names Tom believes could explode this winter.

Has Tom Malone unearthed another Bravemansgame, Native River or Envoi Allen?
After this interview, you might just think so.

Big shocks at Newmarket, a record haul for Ballydoyle, and a new juvenile course record - here’s what reallymatters for the Guineas and Derby trail.

Emmet Kennedy, Georgia Cox, and Jamie Wrenn rewind an unforgettable weekend of racing action:
🏇 Dewhurst Stakes drama as Gewan lands a 25/1 shock — the biggest since Beethoven in 2009.
🏆 Aidan O’Brien rewrites the record books with his 7th Fillies’ Mile victory and 22nd Group 1 of the season.

🎧 Key Talking Points:

Dewhurst: what’s real, what’s hype — and who’s the true Guineas colt?

Fillies’ Mile: Precise  — is she more 1000 Guineas or Oaks?

Juvenile sectionals, stride data, and what they reveal for spring classics.

Ballydoyle’s record-breaking season: the stats behind the dominance.

Jumps season kick-off: who caught the eye at Chepstow?

In this Final Furlong special, Emmet Kennedy sits down with Sky Sports Racing presenter Josh Apiafi, the driving force behind The Enduring Race, his new Sky Sports documentary examining whether horse racing has truly delivered on diversity, equality, and inclusion.

Five years after his powerful film Leading The Way with Rishi Persad and Brian Finch, Josh returns with a sobering message: warm words aren’t enough.

In this candid conversation, Josh explains:
🎯 Why racing still has no centralised diversity strategy
💰 The funding and leadership needed for real change
📊 What the BHA’s missing data reveals about the sport’s blind spots
⚖️ Lessons racing can learn from football, F1, and cricket
💬 The abuse he and Rishi faced — and the allies who stood up
🌍 Why racing must open its doors to survive the next decade

Josh also shares the personal drive behind The Racing Pathway, his self-funded initiative to bring new voices and talent into the sport, and what gives him hope about racing’s next generation.
