York, the Ebor and the road to Melbourne! This week on Running Loose, we look back at York and the Ebor Festival, talk favourite racing memories and ask whether the Ebor really is one of the best stepping stones towards the Melbourne Cup.

There’s a personal trip down memory lane with Purple Moon, the Cesca's remarkable horse who went from jumping to becoming a Melbourne Cup star, plus plenty of chat about why York has such a special place in racing.

We also get stuck into your questions — including whether dating jockeys really is a terrible idea 😂 — and discuss the latest developments at the Racecourse Association (RCA) and what they could mean for British horse racing.

Then it’s on to National Racehorse Week, with a look at how racing fans can get behind the scenes at training yards, studs and rehabilitation centres. And with the St Leger at Doncaster coming up, we discuss the end of summer, the final Classic of the season, Doncaster’s racing and nightlife, fish and chips…
