Racing Podcasts

    Anyone any recommendations for a good racing podcast? I've only lately started listening to podcasts regularly lately and am looking for an informative racing one. I've been listening to the final furlong podcast a bit but even after a couple of episodes Emmet Kennedy is grating on me and I don't think I can commit to it long term :-)

    Plenty of us loved FFP but Kennedy getting/gotten to be too much,still listen for Delargy on occasion but himself and Keenan are the only ones worth a listen, they seem to have half a dozen different women on it and most of them sound to me like they're reading off a script.
    Betfair are doing a few at the minute, a preview one called racing only bettor or something along them lines with Gary o Brien which is worth a listen for him alone and then Tony Calvin and Kevin Blake do one on Tuesday that goes into areas outside of the actual racing itself a lot of the time and is a great listen.

    New podcast called “Oddscrackers” is excellent.

    Agree with pretty much all of that. FFP is a lost cause apart from Delargy at times.

    I do like the Racing Only Bettor podcasts, but I'd prefer if Gary O'Brien was a guest rather than a host as he seems to be reluctant to give his own opinions at times.

    Regardless of what people think of Tony Calvin, he's always worth listening to. Himself and Blake's podcast is excellent.

    I listen to FFP
    Have for years
    Still love it, but.... For all the BS Emmet Kennedy spouts about what a brilliant tipster Delargy is, I find his worse than useless
    He sounds impressive, he obviously is a racing offiicianado, but the man can't pick his nose

    I was bored there and seen your comment Roger so said I'd give the ascot day 1 pod a listen. 2 mins in and Kennedy is taking a big súp of something and talking about how many shots are in his coffee. Straight into the bin it went. Pure ****e!!

    Id agree with the previous comment the Calvin and Blake podcast with Hugh Cahill presenting is brilliant.

    Thanks lads. Will give the Betfair one a go. Emmet Kennedy should be boiled in his own piss. Unlistenable.

    Looks like going has changed from good to firm to good to soft after significant rainfall overnight.
    That makes **** of a lot of the study I done yesterday..
