Ep 949 - Will Labour's Hunting Ban damage Racing?

Nick is joined by journalist and broadcaster Lydia Hislop to discuss the latest news from around the racing world. Prompted by the conversation with trainer Kim Bailey at the top of today's show (in which he also discuses his Cheltenham hopefuls Trelawne and Chianti Classico), Nick calls the Countryside Alliance CEO Tim Bonner to talk through Labour's intention to ban trail and drag hunting, and the likely impact on point-to-pointing and racing as a whole. Also on today's show, Nick and Lydia take a look at the key speeches (Stewart Andrew and Andrew Rhodes) from yesterday's BGC AGM, while Ben 'Scoop' Linfoot has Something for the Weekend from Sportinglife.com. Also today, Nick wants your help raising funds for Weatherbys employee and rider Lucy Horan, 28, following her diagnosis with Stage 4 metastatic cancer.
