Ep 172 - From Bad to Worse

Nick is joined by RTE and Racing TV broadcaster Jane Mangan to discuss the rapidly evolving news events of the last 24 hours in horseracing. They discuss the latest apology from Gordon Elliott, the fresh revelation of a new shocking video of jockey Rob James in a similarly grim scenario, and the wider political and diplomatic implications of the BHA's decision to act unilaterally to suspend entries from Elliott's stable. They also consider the consequences of a new licence holder at the yard. Later in the show, Nick talks to Overbury Stud's Simon Sweeting as part of the Weatherbys Bloodstock series and to Natalie O'Rourke from Park Lane Stables about its future now that it has secured over £1m in charitable donations.
