Clare Balding chooses her Tracks Of My Years

Clare Balding - currently hosting the 成人快手's Wimbledon coverage - takes us on a 10 song journey this week on Tracks Of My Years. Plus there's more music quizzing in Ten To The Top.

Broadcaster Clare Balding takes us on a 10 song journey this week on Tracks Of My Years.

Clare is quite simply one of the UK's greatest broadcasters, having the ability to turn her hand from the Olympics to Crufts to Sports Personality Of The Year to election coverage. Having helmed the latter for Channel 4 last week, she's currently the face of the 成人快手 at Wimbledon, and it's no surprise that she's a previous winner of the RTS Sports Presenter Of The Year Award.

Also renowned as a best-selling author, earlier in the summer Clare published her latest book, 'Animal All Stars'. Described as 'a hilarious and fact-packed new non-fiction title', it sees contestants from across the animal kingdom taking part in the ultimate animal sports day! In the book, Clare tells us about some of the most mind-blowing and unusual skills of her favourite animals, as creatures great and small go head-to-head in eight unpredictable sporting events.

Plus there's the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top, a trip in to the 成人快手 Archive with Vernon's Vault, and the new Record and Album Of The Week.

Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you鈥檇 like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
