Ep 345 - Are Elliott jockey demands really a big deal?

Nick is joined by broadcaster Rishi Persad to discuss the day's national and international racing news. They lead with a look ahead to Down Royal and Wetherby this weekend, and a commentary on the situation surrounding the jockey bookings on Gold Cup hero Minella Indo and returning star Envoi Allen. Nick also talks to trainer Tom George, whose Clondaw Castle is a leading fancy for Wetherby's Charlie Hall Chase. JA McGrath brings the latest on the participation of Melbourne Cup second favourite Spanish Mission, while James Willoughby looks ahead to that race and the Breeders' Cup through the prism of the TRC rankings.
