Tara Talks Racing 2025: the MM-a-thon

Breednet - Tuesday January 14

The first Tara Talks Racing podcast for 2025 is online and not surprisingly it’s all about the Magic Millions with a look beneath the sale stats and the challenges which may lay ahead for the sale topping filly.

Mitsu Nakauchida with MM CEO Barry Bowditch - what will his training strategy be?

The $3.2million Home Affairs x Sunlight filly is on face value bred purely for speed but is that acceptable in Japan?

We bring out the stats beyond the overall, looking at market segments, sire profitability, what’s ahead for the dams of the big sellers and discuss the effect digital platforms are having on the yearling market.

And given the delay of the Magic Millions race meeting, we’ve had another crack at some winners. What on earth could go wrong there!

Have a listen.
