263: A new $15 million global jockeys’ league | The Front Page | Horse Racing News | Racing Post

Big stories and big races are up for discussion as Lee Mottershead and Jonathan Harding talk about some of the sport's hottest issues in this week's edition of The Front Page.

Frankie Dettori, Ryan Moore and William Buick have signed up to a new $15 million global jockeys' league that is expected to launch across some of the world's most prestigious racing venues early next year. We assess its chances of bringing a new audience to the sport.

Buick's place among the world racing elite was confirmed over the weekend at Newmarket, where he teamed up with Charlie Appleby to win both the 2,000 and 1,000 Guineas, while in America Godolphin also landed the Kentucky Derby and Oaks.

We look back on the Classic action and reflect on a Punchestown festival that was fantastic for fans of Galopin Des Champs but terrible for the increasingly long-suffering supporters of Constitution Hill.

This week's show ends with more bad news of crashing betting turnover and worrying suggestions that the government is considering tax changes that seem set to heap yet more woe on British racing.
