## Resource

Nick is joined on his return to TW11 from South Africa by Racing Post senior writer Lee Mottershead to discuss the latest from around the racing world after a hectic weekend. They lead today with the publication of a governance blueprint from Goodwood and York racecourses, with Nick talking to bothe CEOs William Derby and Adam Waterworth. Nick and Lee ask just how good is Constitution River, with Donnacha O'Brien joining the show to talk about his Eclipse runner up A Boy Named Susie and his Belmont Oaks heroine Kensington Lane. We run the rule over Calandagan's GP de Saint Cloud comeback, while TPD's Adam Mills puts the Belmont Derby and the Deutsches Derby under the microscope. Lars-Wilhelm Baumgarten, who bought and raced the second, third and fourth in the Hamburg feature, tells us how he did it. Nick Smith - Racing Director at Ascot - also drops in to talk about how Hong Kong is beefing up the Shergar Cup, to clear up the Ka Ying Rising/Ascot debate, and to give Ascot's view of the York/Goodwood proposals. Plus, Nick and Lee discuss that controversial photo at Newmarket on Saturday, the retirement of Field of Gold and the upcoming events in Westminster surrounding the future of Kempton.
