Ep 145 - Is it time to show Politologue more respect?

Nick is joined by journalist and broadcaster Lydia Hislop to discuss all the day's racing news and to look ahead to the best racing over the weekend. In discussion whether Poitologue has ever been taken seriously enough as a top class racehorse, Nick talks to his trainer Paul Nicholls about how he cured the horse's physical issues and bleeding problems with an altered training regime. Nick and Lydia talk through the Charles Byrnes case and examine the lessons learned from Aidan O'Brien's horse mix-up in the Fillies' Mile. Britney Eurton talks about the Pegasus World Cup, JA McGrath checks in from Hong Kong, Ed Sharkie gives us Fitzdares' market on the first season sires for 2021, while HRI's Brian Kavanagh gives an update on the travel situation ahead of Cheltenham.
