EP 595 - Pied Piper all set for Cheltenham return

Tom in for Nick and joined by broadcaster and journalist Lydia Hislop to look ahead to this weekend’s domestic racing between the flat and jumps. National Hunt racing is crying out for rain and Cheltenham could certainly do with some ahead of their Showcase fixture on Friday and Saturday. We also discuss the Vertem Futurity Stakes at Doncaster in which Aidan O’Brien trains nearly half the entered field. Ralph Beckett will run his colt Captain Wierzba either at Doncaster or in the Horris Hill at Newbury and he joins us to discuss that and also his intended Breeders’ Cup Mile runner Kinross. With Tattersalls Horses In Training sales on the horizon we hear from Jason Singh about what to expect next week. And we’ve our Wednesday Hong Kong update from Jim McGrath.
