Ep 955 - Willie's in the Hood

Nick is joined by Daily Mirror's Newsboy David Yates on the eve of
the Cheltenham Festival. With jitters surrounding the Triumph
Hurdle favourite - and the health of the Henderson string as a
whole - Nick opens this episode with a reassuring bulletin from the
master of Seven Barrows. Also on this show, and in the company of
Joe Chambers, Nick and Dave try to analyse why Willie Mullins is
running so many horses in a hood, several for the first time,
including Arkle favourite Gaelic Warrior. Also on today's show,
David Manasseh talks Ballyburn, the joy of ownership and business
with Tony Bloom, while Sam Twiston Davies gives a considered
appraisal of his own chances during the week. Nick and Dave update
on the George Gently case, and Dan Skelton's own take on its
conclusion, as reported on Saturday.
