Ep 711 - Weld waits on Tahiyra target

Nick is joined by Racing Post senior writer Lee Mottershead to discuss the latest news and events from around the racing world. Joining the show today are Dermot Weld, with an update on Champion 2yo filly Tahiyra and her likely starting point for the season, and George Murphy, whose father John sprung a surprise with White Birch in yesterday's Ballysax Stakes at Leopardstown. Nick and Lee also rundown the other key trials over the weekend. Also on today's show, they discuss whether the maximum field of 40 will be reached in this year's Grand National, with trainer Fergal O'Brien joining to keep his fingers crossed for Captain Cattistock, currently number 53. With disquiet surrounding the discontinuing of the ROA owners' badge scheme, Head of Ownership Louise Norman joins the show to answer the questions and to clarify the available free entry benefits for members, while Channel 7's Jason Richardson drops in to talk about his own ownership success at Doncaster yesterday and to preview this weekend's Randwick clash between Anamoe and Dubai Honour.
