Tailed Off Pod Episode 26 - York's Ebor Festival Preview

In this episode of Tailed Off, we dive into the chaotic Windsor race incident and what it could mean for the sport. We also get into the debate around a proposed gambling tax that’s stirred up talk of a strike in British horse racing. On a lighter note, we share our thoughts on the upcoming Ebor Festival at York—one of the most exciting meets of the summer.We’ll talk about Dan Skelton swapping the saddle for the dance floor in a charity event, and we’ll reflect on the recent news of Holly Doyle losing her retainer—something that really shows the challenges jockeys face in this industry.Of course, we’ll also be looking ahead to the big races. We break down the Lonsdale Cup, Gimcrack Stakes, Nunthorpe Stakes, and the City of York Stakes with insights, betting angles, and a few predictions. Along the way, there’s hopefully a laugh or two as we try to make sense of the ups and downs of racing and betting.Watch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TailedOff Listen to us on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1t4D1JFdqDtq7UDWS27ZX4?si=QKUzJyRsQwKMyoAAP5kf8Q Or Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/tailed-off-podcast/id1790641086Chapters00:00 Welcome Back to Tailed Off01:58 Stewards Enquiry: The Windsor Race Chaos07:10 Anorak Corner: Tax Rises in Horse Racing12:55 Racing Come Dancing: A New Fundraising Initiative14:39 Holly Doyle's Retainer Loss: A Controversial Shift19:11 York's Ebor Festival 23:36 Thursday: 13.50 Sky Bet Lowther Stakes (Fillies' Group 2) 2YO only, 6f28:50 15.00 Clipper Handicap (Heritage Handicap C2) 3YO plus, 1m34:56 15.35 Pertemps Network Yorkshire Oaks 36:34 Friday: 14.25 Lonsdale Cup Stakes40:48 15.00 Gimcrack 43:46 15.35 Coolmore Wootton Bassett Nunthorpe Stakes 49:34 15.00 Sky Bet City of York Stakes (G1) 7f 55:44 15.35 Sky Bet Ebor Handicap#horserace #horseracingpodcast #tailedoff #newmarketraces #newmarket#ascot #tips #ascottips #royalascottips #horseracing #bettingtips #racingpredictions #racingnews #racingtips #galway #galwayfestival #ascot #ascotraces #ascot racecourse #ebor #yorkraces # york #Shergarcupascot #theracingleague #windsor #windsorraces #windsorracecourse
