Fran Berry

not sure what I'm going to go for this week to be perfectly honest Constitution Hill but I might I might I might just go for Sean Econ who is the biggest certainty to look through at Brighton

well I backed him at 11-2 and I hope you're right obviously so fantastic so that was the weekend's look we will be back next week do you know what I always say I don't know what's happening but we actually producer Mark he does actually produce a schedule for us so I'm going to open it up I know the Breeders' Cup will be one of our podcasts right I'm catching up with Sean O'Sullivan our trading team on Wednesday to look out to the Breeders' Cup we've got Fran Berry looking out to the usual and then yourselves lads we're talking on Friday I believe next week ahead of next

week at the crack of dawn what's that at the crack of dawn oh 9am my goodness

you'll be alright will you

The he who shall not be named.

Uh, right, uh, as I said, Fran Berry also will be back tomorrow, or at least on Thursday, to look ahead to Dundalk as per usual, and maybe he'll give us his views on Sea Hill too.

Ruby, thank you very much for your spin through Friday.

Cheers, PK.

It looks like he's been planning this all year, um, and the cards have fallen right for him today as well.

Welcome along, third podcast from the horse's mouth this week after we've been to Newmarket, York, and Chepstow on Friday with Matt Chapman, Dundalk on Friday with Fran Berry, and on to the weekend, the, the Saturday of brilliant racing on ITV from Newmarket and York in particular with Rory Zargi and Ruby Walsh.

Rory Zargi, now that I know your mic is definitely working, how are you?

I'm very well, thanks.

We'll be back next week to look ahead to the, uh, I think it's just a standard week next week.

Uh, but if it isn't and there's more action, we'll be back for more.

But Fran Berry and the two boys, that's for sure.

Uh, enjoy your weekend, folks.

We asked Rory, busy.

We asked Fran Berry, busy.

Matt Chapman said, "Me, I'll talk to you." [laughs] How are you, Matt?

[laughs] Never busy.

He can go in heavy ground, it's not a problem, but he's got no issues on good ground.

I'm just hoping that it's one of those that people think, "Oh, Witness Stand, he can't win the Challenge Stakes," and they don't really go through it that closely, and don't think, "Well, hold on, there's only one horse with any pace in this race." So, um, yeah, I'm hoping for an upset.

As Fran Berry knows, if you don't go for a 22 to 1 shot that has no chance on paper, then you'll never get a winner at 22 to 1.

So let's hope Witness Stand drifts like a barge and, um, yeah, the jury is out.

Uh, the declarations are through.

Darragh is looking to become the first horse since Who Ruby Walsh caught out Fran Berry a little bit, uh, to become the first back-to-back colt to win the Arc.

Oh, colt.

Um, Mon-

Was he? Mick won on him, and then he got beat.

Uh, what was the last colt to win, uh-

I'll give you the same clue that I gave Fran Berry.

There's a race named after him at the Curragh.
