Show Notes
To lose a Classic in the stewards' room is tough. For it to have happened to Kieran Shoemark in Paris on Sunday felt impossibly cruel.
The disqualification of Shes Perfect following the French 1,000 Guineas - which prompted cries of "cheat" and "disgrace" in the Longchamp paddock - and her jockey's demotion by the Gosdens is the first story up for discussion in this week's edition of The Front Page.
Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Liam Headd reflect on Shoemark's miserable week in a programme that highlights the very different sort of week enjoyed by Aidan O'Brien and Hollie Doyle.
In a show packed with subjects, the team also ask early questions about British racing's new £3.6 million marketing campaign, Ascot's decision to get rid of the ladies' team at the Shergar Cup and worrying news about declining foal crops in Britain and Ireland.
