Ep 175 - Facing the Future

Nick is joined by journalist and broadcaster Lydia Hislop to round up the day's racing news, headed by continuing developments in the case surrounding leading trainer Gordon Elliott, which is heard today by the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board. Nick and Lydia discuss the procedures involved and the short term implications for Elliott and for the Cheltenham Festival. With news of a row developing between Australia's two principal racing jurisdictions, Channel 7's Jason Richardson joins the conversation. Later in this edition, Nick and Lydia talk through some of the racing in the UK this weekend.
