Summary

It’s one of the great weekends in global racing — and The Final Furlong Podcast team is on it. Emmet Kennedy is joined by Adam Mills, George Gorman, and Andy Newton to preview a classic weekend of racing across Newmarket and Churchill Downs — from the first colts' and fillies' classics to the most iconic race in America. In the 2000 Guineas, we break down the main contenders, reveal where the real betting value lies, and put forward strong, contrasting views. In the Kentucky Derby, there’s a confident 9/1 play that has the team buzzing. For Sunday’s 1000 Guineas, one of the panel makes the case for a 33/1 each-way outsider — and we all agree on the best bet of the weekend, with one pundit declaring: “He should be much shorter — I think he’ll **** in!” Plus, we reveal the betting system that’s delivered serious profit all season, and the next horse to keep it rolling this weekend.
