The FINAL FURLONG PODCAST team returns with a special edition airing on Sunday, October 4th, 2026, spotlighting the standout events at Longchamp in France, including the prestigious Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe. They will also cover three races at Ireland’s Curragh, which they are sponsoring alongside 1xBet Ireland.
As usual, host Emmet Kennedy leads the discussion, guiding the panel through the day’s biggest races during what is the premier racing event in France. Alongside Kennedy are expert racing analysts Adam Mills, Jaime Wrenn, Andy Newton, and former jockey George Gorman. Together, they provide their top betting tips for the live ITV Racing coverage from both Longchamp and the Curragh.
A key question to watch is whether last year’s Arc champion, Daryz, can repeat the victory for the Aga Khan stables. Fans can access their in-depth analysis and Sunday racing tips for free on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or watch the discussion on YouTube, where they also detail the races featured.
