Ep 505 - Continents collide in clash for the ages

Nick is at Royal Ascot, where he is joined on Day One by Racing Post senior writer Lee Mottershead to look ahead to a sublime day of sport. They look ahead to the potential epic between Nature Strip and Golden Pal, with a notable contribution at the track this morning from the latter's trainer Wesley Ward. With the TRC rankings in flux, James Willoughby assesses the likely impact of the first few races, while Jamie Hart considers how world pool punters might play the International horses and offers exotic possibilities for the Queen Anne. Later in the show Nick talks to Gaie Waterhouse and Adrian Bott, successful bidders at £1.2m for Derby runner-up Hoo Ya Mal at the Goffs London Sale, while farrier Barry Oldman explains his role during Ascot week.
