:00:00. > :00:10.Hello there. Welcome to the BBC sports centre. Lots coming up for
:00:11. > :00:15.you today. A record-breaking mum on the track. The boxer, breaking down
:00:16. > :00:22.barriers with a shot at the world title and the British riders who
:00:23. > :00:33.look set to top the world yet again in Normandy. I'm Ollie Foster. This
:00:34. > :00:37.is Saturday Sportsday. It's a really busy weekend. Let's
:00:38. > :00:46.start with the headlines: Manchester United confirmed another new signing
:00:47. > :00:51.this morning. Danny Blint from Ajax for about ?14 million. That takes
:00:52. > :01:00.their spending to almost ?150 million. Almost ?60 million went on
:01:01. > :01:05.Demeira. He starts in the early Premier League kick-off. The third
:01:06. > :01:12.one-day internationals are under way at Trent Bridge. Alastair Cook and
:01:13. > :01:17.Alex Hales made an opening partnership of 82 returns. India
:01:18. > :01:27.lead the series 1-0. And Andy Murray is back in action. Due on court
:01:28. > :01:33.against Kutzneov in the third round of the last major tennis tournament.
:01:34. > :01:37.Until a few weeks ago, Jo Pavey had never won a major championship
:01:38. > :01:43.title. But at 40 years old, less than a year after giving birth to
:01:44. > :01:47.her second child, she became the oldest female European champion with
:01:48. > :01:49.victory in the 10,000m. Kate Grey has been to meet the family.
:01:50. > :01:53.COMMENTATOR: This is it. has been to meet the family.
:01:54. > :01:58.COMMENTATOR: This Her hard career has been about this moment it is
:01:59. > :02:02.gold for Jo Pavey. It was the moment she made history.
:02:03. > :02:08.Many marvelled at the 40-year-old mum of two. Now back at home, Jo
:02:09. > :02:11.Pavey beliefs it is her close family unit that is responsible for her
:02:12. > :02:17.success. It made a lot of difference. When I
:02:18. > :02:21.was younger I would be stressed about the training, if I would hit
:02:22. > :02:26.the targets. Now, I run until I am lying on the floor. But I have a
:02:27. > :02:30.moral balance to approach my life with. Feeling so happy with two
:02:31. > :02:36.lovely children and a supportive husband. I enjoy my running and it
:02:37. > :02:42.gives me a lot of motivation. With her youngest just 11 months, Jo
:02:43. > :02:47.was still breast-feeding at the start of the season. The idea of
:02:48. > :02:54.reaching the podium, seemed impossible. But with her husband
:02:55. > :02:58.Gavin, coach and manager, their unique relationship seems to work.
:02:59. > :03:02.We are working towards goals together. And more flexible on a
:03:03. > :03:07.day-to-day basis. It helps, rather than having it set in stone. When
:03:08. > :03:12.you meet a coach you can schedule it into the day. We can chat about it
:03:13. > :03:17.on the preschool run. So despite being a mum first, Jo has
:03:18. > :03:22.finally found her form as an athlete.
:03:23. > :03:25.This year as been the most special to finally achieve a championship
:03:26. > :03:31.gold. But the circumstances make it special. To think I could win the
:03:32. > :03:35.gold and do a victory lap and have my family there. It feels like the
:03:36. > :03:40.highlight of my career. It has been a great surprise to see we have been
:03:41. > :03:43.able to make it work as a family. If that continues, I will carry on for
:03:44. > :03:48.now. With that highlight coming at the
:03:49. > :03:52.age of 40, Jo believes there is a chance that her family could see
:03:53. > :03:57.heroining her first Olympic medal in Rio.
:03:58. > :04:03.From a sports woman at the pinnacle of her career, to a man on his way
:04:04. > :04:08.up, Carl Frampton fights for his first world title in the home city
:04:09. > :04:13.of Belfast. If Issing Kiko Martinez. Frampton has Barry McGuigan in his
:04:14. > :04:16.corner, one of the sports greats. There are many similarities between
:04:17. > :04:21.the two. Alex Gulrajani has this report.
:04:22. > :04:26.I am very, very proud to say I am from Tiger's Bay. I have seen a lot
:04:27. > :04:31.of troubles on the streets. I grew up in the back end of it, I can only
:04:32. > :04:35.imagine what it would have been like earlier.
:04:36. > :04:39.Boxing has played its part in the history of Ireland. Carl Frampton is
:04:40. > :04:43.the latest fighter helping to condition that process. In his
:04:44. > :04:51.corner, a man who started it all, Barry McGuigan.
:04:52. > :04:56.Barry was massive to everyone. There was the saying, leave the fighting
:04:57. > :05:00.to Barry McGuigan. It does not sound very much but he was a hero for both
:05:01. > :05:08.communities. He wore the dove on the shorts. He did not get involved in
:05:09. > :05:16.fights, or flailings, that is why people liked him. This is why, in
:05:17. > :05:20.1985, 18 million people watched on TV as Barry McGuigan world the world
:05:21. > :05:23.title. He was Northern Ireland's champion.
:05:24. > :05:27.I was privileged to bring the people of Northern Ireland together it did
:05:28. > :05:31.put pressure on me but hugely graphifying to know I was bringing
:05:32. > :05:36.people together and they were coming to support me. It was the one thing
:05:37. > :05:41.that unified them. I know it is the same with Carl Frampton. 30 years on
:05:42. > :05:45.but the same thing has happened all again. It is tremendous to watch now
:05:46. > :05:49.as a manager, as opposed to being a fighter.
:05:50. > :05:53.While the streets of Belfast are calmer, some tensions exist. But bit
:05:54. > :05:57.by bit things are changing. New faces adorn the walls as the city
:05:58. > :06:01.prepares to crown another world champion.
:06:02. > :06:05.I have the talent in the world. I am getting a chance to showcase it. I
:06:06. > :06:09.am getting that chance to do it. It will be a great fight. That is why
:06:10. > :06:15.there so much interest. It will not be an easy fight. But I want to win
:06:16. > :06:21.it. A fight that gives Frampton the chance to follow his mentor's foot
:06:22. > :06:25.steps in the ring as well as outside of it.
:06:26. > :06:31.Now to the World Equestrian Games. They began in Normandy. What a week
:06:32. > :06:41.for the British squad. Charlotte Du Jardin has two individual dressage
:06:42. > :06:47.golds. And the Parrot Equest ran Riders
:06:48. > :06:55.winning eight medals in all and there should be more to come.
:06:56. > :06:59.This is the World Cup for horses. It only happens every four years.
:07:00. > :07:06.Aside from the Olympics, this is as big as it gets. Winning here is an
:07:07. > :07:10.important statement for Rio, 2016. What a statement, Charlotte Du
:07:11. > :07:19.Jardin made. Two Gold Medals in London 2012 and two more here after
:07:20. > :07:23.she and Allegro helped them to get the team silver.
:07:24. > :07:30.After 2012 I did not think it could get better. But this week has gone
:07:31. > :07:35.so well. I have done it. And the Paralympic stars are here
:07:36. > :07:40.too. Britain's riders have won every major team Gold Medal for almost two
:07:41. > :07:45.decades. They kept it up here, picking up three individual Gold
:07:46. > :07:49.Medals alongside the team gold. But this is horse ball, a demonstration
:07:50. > :07:55.sport here in France. We are the first to play horse ball.
:07:56. > :07:59.Now we are trying to show that sport all around the world.
:08:00. > :08:06.But this weekend, the main event is eventing. A British team featuring
:08:07. > :08:10.2006 world champion, Zara Phillips has high hopes.
:08:11. > :08:16.Once you have been there once it is like a drug. You just want to do it
:08:17. > :08:22.again and stay at the top and keep pulling out the best performances. I
:08:23. > :08:32.hope that we can have a really good go at it.
:08:33. > :08:36.Coming up next week, the showjumping features Britain's Scot Brest. The
:08:37. > :08:40.favourite at the tour. There has been bad news for the
:08:41. > :08:45.showjumpers, Ben Maher pulling out because of injury to the horse.
:08:46. > :08:53.Coverage of the eventing continues on the Red Button. The cricket,
:08:54. > :09:02.England 160-6, no goals at Burnley. That is it for Saturday Sportsday.
