Nick is joined by Daily Mirror journalist David Yates to discuss the latest horseracing news from around the world. Nick is in Bahrain for the third running of the Bahrain International Trophy, where he catches up with trainer Richard Fahey, jockeys Jason Watson and Kieran Shoemark, and owner Linnett Woodward. Closer to home, Nick and Dave discuss the continuing impact of the dry weather on the quality of the racing, look ahead to an absorbing Betfair Chase, discuss the likely glacial progress of the Irish drugs case, and offer commentary on the recent stories involving jockey Finley Marsh and ex-jockey Kieren Fallon. James Willoughby offers great insight into Bahrain's big race through the prism of the global rankings, while explaining why the rankings must always have an element of recency bias.
