Ep 1123 - Were the Aussie vets heroes or villains?

Nick Luck Daily Podcast

Nick - in Del Mar, CA, ahead of Breeders' Cup - is joined from Melbourne by Racing Post senior writer Lee Mottershead to discuss the latest from around the racing world. With favourite Jan Brueghel controversially scratched from the Melbourne Cup on the order of RV vets and stewards, Nick and Lee examine the reasons for the scratch with Kick Up for Racing's Vicky Leonard, after hearing Aidan O'Brien's succinct but unvarnished thoughts on the matter. Later in this episode, hear more from Aidan, as he discusses City of Troy's Classic bid, while we also hear from Ramiro Restrepo, owner of Juvenile fancy Ferocious, Keeneland's Cormac Breathnach on the inaugural eve-of-Cup sale, and JA McGrath with news of David Eustace's rapid rise in Hong Kong. This week's Weatherbys guest is Jennifer Sassier, Breeding Manager of Haras du Mont dit Mont in Normandy.
