WATCH: The Front Page - If JP McManus has the next great staying hurdler, which one is it?

Did we see the next true star of the staying hurdling scene running for JP McManus at Ascot on Saturday? But if we did, which horse was it?

Lee Mottershead, Maddy Playle and Matthew Rennie reflect on the performances of Impose Toi, Honesty Policy and some of the weekend's other most notable performers in the latest edition of The Front Page.

Looking forward, the team considers who will win this week's spectacular King George and reflects on how many more King Georges will be run at Kempton.

In this festive edition we also look back on last week's 300-1 and 250-1 winners and ask why so many horses now seem to be scoring at huge odds.
