Ep 302 - Davy Russell on brink of remarkable return
Nick Luck Daily Podcast - A podcast by Nick Luck
Nick is joined by Daily Mirror journalist David Yates to discuss the day's national and international racing news. They begin by discussing an imminent return to the saddle with 42 year old jumps jockey Davy Russell, one of the modern greats whose career was thrown into serious jeopardy with an horrendous neck injury last year. Nick and Dave follow up yesterday's conversations about stewarding in the UK and this weekend's Sprint Cup, while Nick catches up with Ger Lyons following his 1000th winner yesterday. Lyons outlines plans for his star two year old filly Sacred Bridge, while rejecting fellow Irish trainers' calls for a return to 24 hour declarations. Later in this edition, Nick finds out more about the 'Saratoga Savage' Firenze Fire from trainer Kelly Breen, while BBAG's Klaus Eulenberger is this week's Weatherbys Bloodstock Guest.
