After Wales & The West 's big win in 2024, all eyes are on the early racing league standings.
Each team is headed-up by a captain - a well-known personality in the industry! 2024 captain's include Group-one winning trainer Jamie Osborne, TV presenter Mick Quinn and Love Island star Chris Hughes - so expect lighthearted competitiveness and banter between each team!
