Ep 128 - Magnificent Mr Mullins

Nick is joined by broadcaster and the Racing Post's 5th most influential figure of 2020, Rishi Persad, to analyse the day's news and to reflect on some sparkling performances over the festive period, notably by horses trained by Irish maestro Willie Mullins, whose son Patrick, assistant and rider of Grade One winner Sharjah, drops in for a chat. Later in this edition, Nick catches up with jockey Ben Curtis, who is 2020's leading rider by number of winners in the calendar year in the UK. Andrew Cooper, Clerk at Sandown Park, gives us the prospects for Saturday's meeting at the Esher track.
