Rishi Persad and Steve Ryder are joined by Tanya Stevenson to preview the Winter Carnival from Newbury.

Before that though we recap the latest racing from Haydock as Royal Pagaille won the Betfair Chase with Venetia Williams continuing the fantastic stable form becoming the first female trainer

to win the race. Over in Punchestown we discuss State Man who justified his price of 1/6 to win it for the second year in a row beating Echoes In Rain by five lengths.

In our Newbury Winter Carnival Preview we take a look at the ‘Gold Cup’ Handicap Chase, the Long Distance Hurdle and the John Francome Novices Chase before closing the show with a

look at Constitution Hill in the Fighting Fifth Hurdle and our best bets for the weekend.
