Summary
Nick is joined by Matt Chapman for Thursday's edition of the popular racing podcast. First today, they hear from the BHA's Head of Raceday Officials, Cathy O'Meara, as the Authority tries to get to grips with the unsatisfactory starts at the Cheltenham Festival. Also today, jockey Jim Crowley tells Nick that he has had further surgery as he aims for a return to the saddle after a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Declan McDonagh looks to Sparan Nua to give him a first Classic success this weekend, while - in New Jersey - Nick catches up with Chad Summers, whose Preakness winner Napoleon Solo is the headline act in this weekend's Haskell at Monmouth Park.
