Summary

Join host Emmet Kennedy for a special podcast, as we gather a panel of esteemed guests, including renowned jockeys Tom Marquand and Brendan Powell Jr., former PJA CEO Paul Struthers, and TalkSPORT2's Lizzie Kelly, Tony McCormack, and Louis Steward. Tune in as we navigate the pressing issue that has sent shockwaves through British racing: the sauna ban. Delve into the heart of the matter as we explore why saunas hold a crucial role in a jockey's Race Day routine. Our guests provide firsthand accounts of their experiences and decisions surrounding the initial agreement to relinquish this essential practice. Uncover the truth behind the scenes as we unravel the intricate web of disingenuous practices employed by the BHA to enforce the sauna ban. Through candid discussions and expert insights, we aim to shed light on the motives behind these decisions and their impact on jockeys' performance and well-being. As part of the FFP Army, we urge you to take action by sharing this episode far and wide across all social media platforms. By spreading awareness, we can rally support, challenge the status quo, and advocate for the rights and needs of jockeys in British racing.
