It's Episode 35! The biggest week in global Racing and in this special episode, Bred For It has your bloodstock angles covered. This episode is a full deep dive into ten years of Weatherbys data — stallion trends, dam-sire patterns and the pedigree angles shaping betting and breeding decisions across every distance category at Royal Ascot. Who leads the way? Which bloodlines keep delivering at the biggest meeting of the flat season? And which sires should you be following this week? Guest Richard Brown — bloodstock director of Wathnan Racing and founding director of Blandford Bloodstock — joins the show to discuss Wathnan's 2026 Royal Ascot team, his breeze-up buying strategy, and his reaction to a remarkable stat about one of Britain and Ireland's most prominent stallions that has yet to register a single Royal Ascot winner. Richard also reveals which horses represent Wathnan's strongest chances at a meeting the operation targets specifically and prepares for year on year. Sponsored by VV Rouleaux & VV Chapeau, the place to go for your Royal Ascot hats, found on Marleybone Lane, London.

Episode 34: Up For The Derby Fight

It’s Episode 34! With the Derby just around the corner, what can the pedigrees tell us about the leading contenders? Which horses are likely to stay the trip and who looks bred to thrive at Epsom? To explore the Derby picture in greater depth, Jess is joined by part-owner Kevin Blake to discuss his Derby hopeful James J Braddock. A highly respected breeder, broadcaster and key member of the Joseph O’Brien team, Kevin shares his insight into the colt’s powerful pedigree, his Derby credentials, and his wider thoughts on this year’s fascinating Classic field. Jess also brings you an exclusive interview from Coolmore, with a special focus on Castlehyde Stud following a memorable Irish Guineas weekend. Castlehyde’s resident sire Starspangledbanner enjoyed a remarkable Guineas double through Gstaad and Precise. Clare McInerney from the nominations team offers an inside look at this important division of the Coolmore operation.
