SEN welcomes David Gately and Mark Hunter in time for Spring Carnival
Sports Entertainment Network • August 29th, 2025 5:27 pm
Sports Entertainment Network (SEN) is proud to announce that two of Australia’s most respected and trusted racing tipsters, David Gately and Mark Hunter, will be joining the SEN team ahead of the 2025 Spring Racing Carnival. This exciting development comes as RSN officially becomes part of the SEN network from Monday, September 1, further strengthening SEN’s commitment to delivering premium racing content to audiences across the country.
Mark Hunter will be heard every Friday morning from 8 to 9am on Giddy Up with Gareth Hall in a brand-new segment titled ‘The Hunter’s Edge’, where he will provide a comprehensive preview of Melbourne’s Saturday races. This segment will be broadcast across RSN, the SENTrack network, and also aired on Racing.com, giving punters unparalleled access to his expert insights.
David Gately will join Giddy Up on Monday mornings from 8 to 9am to review the weekend’s Melbourne races, and again on Thursday mornings from 9.30 to 10.30am for ‘Gator’s Gameplan’, where he will preview the upcoming Saturday races.
In a major highlight for racing fans, Hunter and Gately will also team up with Miles Pfitzner on Saturday mornings for the ‘Melbourne Form Preview’ on RSN. This hour-long program has long been a staple of RSN’s programming, and SEN is proud to continue the tradition with three of the country’s finest racing minds. Their combined expertise will offer listeners a deep and entertaining look into the Melbourne form each week. The show will be heard on RSN from 8 to 9am each Saturday morning.
Hunter shared his excitement about joining SEN’s expanded racing coverage.
“I’m thrilled to be joining SEN and continuing my work on RSN and on SENTrack with Gareth Hall. ‘The Hunter’s Edge’ will give punters a deep dive into Melbourne form every Friday, and I’m looking forward to teaming up with Gator and Miles on Saturday mornings ahead of a huge day of racing.”
Echoing Hunter’s sentiment, Gately added;
“I am extremely excited to be joining the SEN team and once again working with my great mate Gareth Hall,” Gately said.
“My love and passion for horse racing is as strong as ever and my drive to not only find winners but also to help educate and entertain the current and next generation of punters underpins everything I do, and all that I love about our great game.
“Our Monday ‘Review’ and Thursday ‘Game Plan’ segments will be in-depth however, we will make sure we are having immense fun with it all and you have my word, we will NOT be taking ourselves too seriously! I am also very much looking forward to detailed interaction with the RSN and SEN listeners. I cannot wait to get started. Bring on another Spring Carnival!”
CEO of SEN, Craig Hutchison, added that he was proud to welcome two such respected voices in Australian racing to the SEN family.
“David and Mark are two of the most trusted voices in Australian racing. Their insights and experience are second to none, and we’re proud to welcome them to SEN as we expand our racing coverage. With RSN now part of the SEN family, we’re delivering more access, more analysis, and more racing than ever before.”
