Ep 1542 - Do UK punters have Stockholm syndrome?

from Nick Luck Daily Podcast · host Nick Luck

Nick is joined this morning by the Racing Post’s Lee Mottershead to look again at the decision by the stewards at Epsom to declare Benvenuto Cellini a non-runner whilst Jason Tan, based in New Zealand explains why he believes we’re behind the times in the UK with this rule having not been in place sooner. Ahead of the Prix de Diane this weekend, Nick catches up with David Menuisier, who’s hoping Inis Mor can go close and Lee and Nick spin through the likely key contenders. Will Aitkenhead has the latest Royal Ascot update before Richard Langley, head groundsman at Brighton joins the show to discuss his attempt to break a world record, which would be a remarkable feat. Dan Barber is back again to look back on a handicapping performance from Epsom that could put this horse right up there in the big leagues and his trainer Roger Varian shares where we might see him next. Finally Greg Carpenter of the HKJC shares his delight at Ka Ying Rising receiving a rating of 130, putting him to the top of the tree and Oli Bell is at the GOFFS Arkle Sale catching up with Willie Mullins.
