Join Maddy Playle, Chris Cook and Liam Headd to discuss a lively week in racing, including Arc trials' day at Longchamp on Sunday. Last year's runner-up Aventure shot to favouritism for the French showpiece after winning the Prix Vermeille, with Whirl's defeat the second notable disappointment for the race after Kalpana's loss to Giavellotto in the September Stakes at Kempton. The team also review comments by John Gosden and Aidan O'Brien regarding Ombudsman and Delacroix in the Irish Champion Stakes, with the Ballydoyle maestro suggesting the British trainer was a sore loser after ruling out Godolphin's colt from the Group 1 clash. Finally, the panel ponder how effective Wednesday's strike action will be as racing figures prepare to gather in Westminster.
