Ep 421 - Why Tiger Narrative is Irresponsible

Tom Stanley in for Nick and joined by senior writer at the Racing Post Lee Mottershead. We start with the news dominating racing that Tiger Roll will again not line up in this year’s Grand National after his owner deemed his allotted weight to be unfair and detrimental to the horse’s welfare. Lee gives his views on Michael O'Leary's comments and we also cast an eye over other notable and intended runners in the race. We hear from trainer Ted Walsh who will send out Any Second Now for a second tilt at the race having finished third last year. And Charlie Longsdon is along to talk about his mare Snow Leopardess who looks likely to now head straight to Aintree. We also touch on an alleged second offence from agent Gary Woods who has again been accused of defrauding syndicate members and have the latest from the ongoing gambling review. Plus it’s Wednesday so we have the latest from Hong Kong with Jim McGrath.
