Tara Talks Racing Episode 8

Tara Madgwick - Monday October 28

I've had a busy weekend with work and showjumping , but have found time to talk racing with Craig Tompson, who explains where Breednet is at with with data and the Black Type debacle.

We cover the usual stuff in the bloodstock and racing world from the last week. Via Sistina’s triumph, the Pride Of Jenni victims, the black type debacle, a bit of a look forward to the Derby and Coolmore this weekend and are the two best international horses currently in Australia running in Sydney this weekend?

Perfect Pie!
