Ep 622 - More Fun, Less Funfair

Nick is joined by writer and broadcaster Lydia Hislop to discuss the latest news and events from around the racing world today. They are broadcasting from a sun drenched Newbury ahead of the featured Coral Gold Cup this weekend, and are joined by Sam Thomas and Neil Mulholland, both represented by leading chances in the big race. They also discuss the ongoing concerns about drying ground, the issues at Sedgefield racecourse, Marco Ghiani's troubles and a brace of Gosden medication overages. Later in the show, Nick talks to Jane Chapple Hyam about Sceptre-session-entry Saffron Beach, who still has a Hong Kong option thereafter, while Liz Price catches up with Onesto's rider Christophe Lemaire in Tokyo ahead of the Japan Cup.
