ITV documentary follows seven mates from the club to the course, featuring Guinness, nuts, and a five-year-old gelding.

The documentary starts with Showtime Mahomes’ promising first run of 2023 at Ripon. It then follows the ups and downs of the horse’s season before a return trip to York, where an emotional win was previously secured. More than just focusing on the horse’s performance on the track, the documentary delves into the personal stories of the seven friends who own Showtime Mahomes as part of The Muffed Punt Partnership. It highlights the positive experience of owning a racehorse with friends, with one owner reflecting on coping with the loss of his wife of 40 years, and another sharing how the horse and partnership have helped him talk about his son’s self-harming and aggressive behavior.

The documentary also features Tuer, providing insight into the unorthodox manner in which the group operates. The project, operating under the working title Champions: Full Gallop, is set to feature six hour-long episodes and air on ITV1 and ITVX alongside STV in Scotland at a prime-time slot this summer. Racing Post is mentioned to provide a platform for the best offers, all in one place.
