Ep 509 - Hollie the History Maker

Nick is joined by Daily Mirror Racing correspondent David Yates to discuss the news and events from around the racing world. Nick talks today at some length to rider Hollie Doyle, who on Sunday became the first woman to ride the winner of a major European Classic on the John Gosden trained Nashwa. Nick and Dave examine the significance and merit of the victory before going on to wrap up Royal Ascot, with input from Director of Comms and Public Affairs Nick Smith. Dave and Nick analyse the consumer experience at the Royal meeting, the field sizes, the ground conditions and the variety of human stories, and wonder how the next few weeks will play out for Gosden and Frankie Dettori. Trainer David Simcock tells Nick why stable star Cash is missing the Irish Derby this weekend, while Tattersalls' Bobby Jackson previews the July Sale, which includes two Royal Ascot winners.
