Please take a little time to listen to John โฆ@HuntyCallerโฉ today.

Rider Retires!
This Sunday, the legendary Steve Rider will present his final show before he retires following a stellar 45 years working for ITV and BBC.
Steve began his career as a reporter at LBC before moving to Anglia Television. As he progressed through the ranks he went on to work on the Olympic Games, World Of Sport and BBC's Grandstand to name a few. He returned to ITV in 2005 and presented our Formula One coverage, the 2006 Football World Cup, the Champions League and the Rugby World Cup in 2011.
More recently, the 75-year-old has been anchoring the British Touring Car Championship on ITV4. We wish Steve all the best in the future and thank him for all his dedication and hard work in a TV career spanning over 50 years on screen.
Thank you for all the lovely messages, more importantly thanks to all the vets at @AintreeRaces . Broadway Boy is getting loaded onto the horse ambulance and coming home. Such a special horse to all of us at Grangehill farm. Big thanks to Laura who has stayed with him all night .
Grand National bulletin.
Celebre dโAllen had heatstroke. Staying at course tonight. Should be fine.
Broadway Boy. Vets happy. Monitoring for next 24 hours. But again very hopeful he will be okay. Connections loath to say anything quite yet just in case.

You will not find, re-listening to John Huntโs Cheltenham Gold Cup commentary, a more stirring study in courage in sport this year.
In the shadow of absolute evil, he has given an impeccable demonstration of what it means to live https://t.co/MJuYVXYqhS
A pleasure to be part of the team making this fast-turnaround look behind the scenes of one of the most dramatic days in racing history. Hopefully worth 8mins of your time ๐
