Ep 948 - Are Russell stars ripe for Festival harvest?

Nick is joined by award winning Racing Post writer Jonathan Harding to gallop through today's racing headlines. They begin with the latest on Constitution Hill, followed by further musings following the parliamentary debate, for which they are joined by Tewkesbury MP Laurence Robertson, angling for an audience with the Prime Minister. The Cheltenham build up today begins with Lucinda Russell, who is trying to juggle her aces ahead of the big week. Also on the show, we talk to trainer Harry Fry about where he is headed with Gidleigh Park, to Richard Bandey about the very real possibility of a debut Festival success with Theatre Man, and to David Christie about a three pronged attack on the Hunter Chase, including favourite Ferns Lock. Robin Sharp from Houghton Bloodstock gives the first Perfect Power foals rave reviews, while Laura King drops in to give us the lowdown on Super Saturday in Meydan.
