## Resource

Nick is joined by RTE and Racing TV broadcaster Jane Mangan to look at today's racing news from around the globe. Legendary trainer Jim Bolger takes top billing today ahead of Sparan Nua's bid to win him another Irish Oaks. He talks at length about her development and also about his own plans for the future, which involve relocating away from his storied base of many years at Coolcullen. Also on today's show, trainer Richard Spencer on his strong hand in the Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury, and US handler Whit Beckman on Ocelli, the richest maiden in training who bids to break his duck in this weekend's Haskell at Monmouth Park. Plus, Kenny McPeek on his successes in the see ring at Fasig Tipton, whose President Boyd Browning joins the show to reflect on this week's July Sale.
