Ep 822 - Making Hay

Nick is joined by Racing Post senior writer Lee Mottershead to cast a glance at all the latest goings-on from around the world of racing. Today, Nick and Lee reflect on an eventful weekend around the globe, beginning with the French and German Group Ones, where they are joined by former trainer John Hammond, now manager to Gerard Augustin Normand, owner of Grosser Preis Von Baden winner Zagrey and Irish Champion Stakes fancy Onesto. Alex Cole, manager to the Hays, tells Nick how the ownership pulled off an audacious intercontinental treble over the weekend, while Amr Zedan reflects on the Pacific Classic triumph of Arabian Knight and managing owner Rod Lyons pays tribute to star Aussie speedster Nature Strip, who was retired after his run on Saturday. Nick and Lee also discuss what is likely to be on the table at the DCMS select committee hearing tomorrow.
