CHAMPIONS: FULL GALLOP RENEWED FOR SECOND SERIES ON ITV

 EXCLUSIVE

Champions: Full Gallop will return to ITV1 and ITVX next year for a second series, produced by South Shore.

The factual series explores the world of jumps jockeys and goes behind the scenes with jockeys, trainers, owners and horses as they compete in the Jumps season. Cameras have been given access to all areas from weighing rooms to stable yards as cameras follow the dramatic high octane thrills, emotion and drama both on and off the racetrack.

This is a backstage pass to the lives of jockeys and trainers at some of the best Jumps fixtures including the iconic Cheltenham Festival and the world-famous Grand National.

The series will take in all the elements that make racing such a compelling sport, from helmet-mounted cameras that will provide the visceral experience of the risk each jockey takes when racing the jumps to the charismatic owners - salt-of-the-earth syndicates to landed gentry and even royalty - trainers and stable staff who invest so much in the welfare of their horses.

Champions: Full Gallop is available to stream now on ITVX.
