Ep 603 - Dettori set for California move

Nick podcasting from the iconic Melbourne Cup parade today but we start with big news away from Australia. Frankie Dettori tells us that he will begin next season in California for a stint until the spring and, if he picks up a triple crown ride, that USA journey could well continue into the summer and beyond. Tom Stanley and Newsboy of the Daily Mirror David Yates discuss what that might mean for Frankie and indeed current boss John Gosden. We have a round up of the main British news beginning with reaction to Bravemansgame’s Bet365 Charlie Hall Chase win and onto yesterday’s main talking point, the walkover for Pentland Hills at Huntingdon. Nicky Henderson gives his view on the non-event and also an update on Jonbon and Shishkin re their respective Sandown targets. Back in Australia Nick is joined at the parade by Cup winning jockey Kerrin McCoy and former Cup winning rider Glen Boss. We also hear from HBA Media’s Ed Bowman re distribution of the big race this year and from bloodstock agent Luke Lillingston about the upcoming sale of Breeders’ Cup Mile bound filly Dreamloper.
