The City PM Punter Podcast EP:19 Newmarket, Longchamp & HingKong
There’s a great weekend of racing action, with the Group 1 Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket taking centre stage in the UK, plus it’s the brilliant annual Arc weekend in Paris, whilst there’s more top flat racing in Hong Kong. Owner Nick Bradley tells us all about Fev Rover as she aims to win the Prix Marcel Boussac for 2 year olds at Longchamp on Sunday. And Julie Wood returns to the show to talk about her 2000 Guineas hope Etonian. And, of course, Bill Esdaile & Wally Pyrah talk us through the top weekend races. Hosted by Chris Barnett
