The Front Page: the Irish Guineas provides Royal Ascot clues

Field Of Gold and Lake Victoria produced devastating performances to become Irish Guineas winners over the weekend. Not surprisingly, they are the first main talking points in this week's The Front Page.
Lee Mottershead, Maddy Playle and Liam Headd look back at all the top weekend action and debate whether either of the two Classic winners is worth backing now to follow up at Royal Ascot. The panel also asks why the Curragh looked so quiet for the Irish Guineas festival and assess how Los Angeles, Anmaat, Kalpana, White Birch and Sosie fared in Group 1 prizes that whet the appetite for the months ahead.
Following the launch of British racing's new national marketing campaign, Maddy, Liam and Lee give their views on what they have seen so far and then wrap up last week's other major news stories, including the BHA's threat to block racecourses from staging fixtures.
