Ep 667 - McNally banned for 12 years. UK whip meltdown continues.

Nick is joined by writer and broadcaster to discuss the latest news and events from around the racing world. This podcast was released a little later to take in the McNally news. Nick and Lydia chiefly discuss the ongoing row over the whip during the bedding in period, asking whether the sport will go into meltdown before the Cheltenham Festival. They are joined by Harry Cobden, who gave his views on a theoretical breach of the rules at Cheltenham on Saturday. They also discuss Danny Brock's doping allegations, and look ahead to the Dublin Racing Festival with a contribution from Gordon Elliott on Gerri Colombe and Conflated. Later in the show, Ed Babington talks of his stunning success with Missed the Cut at last year's Tatts February Sale, while Dahlbury's Simon Davies is this week's Weatherbys Guest.
