Ep 845 - Westover Retired

Tom in for Nick and joined by Juddmonte Farms’s Barry Mahon to reflect on the news that last Sunday’s Arc second, Westover, has been retired after a career ending injury. Rishi Persad reflects on Westover’s career before giving his view on the weekend’s feature race, Newmarket’s Group 1 Sun Charriot Stakes and we hear from jockey Saffie Osborne who rides Random Harvest in the race. Rishi also pays tribute to Quinault who lines up again at Ascot at the weekend after a stunning season and his trainer Stuart Williams is along to assess his chances. Quinault beat Laurence Bellman’s Popmaster last time at Ascot and Laurence is with us on the podcast to look ahead to the two going head to head again. Charlotte Greenway is back at Tattersall’s Book 1 and joined today by Polly Bonner of Saracen to reflect on day 2. Plus trainer Ollie Sangster joins us to look ahead to a few of his juveniles running in the next couple of weeks including the possibility of Shuwari lining up in the Fillies’ Mile.
