Ep 774 - How it Started... How It's Going...

Nick is joined by David Yates, Newsboy from the Daily Mirror, to discuss the latest news and events from around the racing world. Today, Nick welcomes BHA Chief Regulatory Officer Brant Dunshea to the show to ask whether the new whip rules are fulfilling their brief in light of the high profile Ascot suspensions of Dettori et al, and also to ask whether the known information on Asadna's injury should have been put into the public domain. Also on today's show, Hollie Doyle tells Nick she is alive to the possibility of being a major player in the jockeys' championship this season, and says that she and fellow riders are on "eggshells" riding to the new rules. She also looks forward to Nashwa in the Hoppings Stakes at Newcastle on Friday. JA McGrath brings you the latest from Hong Kong, while Cheltenham Assistant GM Andre Klein talks about his fundraising climb to celebrate the centenary Gold Cup in aid of Racing Welfare.
