Summary

Jockey Dougie Costello joins Emmet to review a weekend dominated by the two Boys in Blue, Coolmore, and Godolphin. Aidan O'Brien took both Newmarket juvenile Group 1s with classic prospects, and we begin with the hugely exciting City Of Troy in the Dewhurst Stakes. How good is he, and can the son of Justify win the Triple Crown? Ylang Ylang got back on track in the Fillies' Mile. Is the daughter of Frankel capable of winning a Guineas, or should her main aim be the Oaks? It's been a tough season for Godolphin as a whole, but they have a lot to look forward to in the shape of Newmarket winners Ancient Wisdom and Arabian Crown. Meanwhile, one of the lads thinks the best of them might be Dance Sequence, who looks like a huge player in the 1000 Guineas! Speaking of the first filly's classic of the season, this year's winner, Mawj, was finally back in action at Keeneland as she won the Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup Stakes under Oisin Murphy. But what race should she go for at the Breeders Cup? We also discuss the lack of betting ring coverage on telly and Frankie Dettori's retirement u-turn!
