## Resource

Nick is joined by Daily Mirror Newsboy David Yates to canter around the racing headlines from across the globe. They begin at home by breaking the news that Bet365 founder Denise Coates, amongst the UK's wealthiest, has become a racehorse owner with Dan Skelton. The trainer himself confirms the news and tells us about their partnership and Denise's purchase. Also on today's show, a comprehensive review of a huge International weekend. We hear from Ed Crisford on Morny heroine Señorita Bonita, from Australian Bloodstock's Jamie Lovett on Melbourne Cup hopeful Defiantly, and we check in with Matt Bernier on what exactly was achieved by Knightsbridge in his Pacific Classic romp. Plus, rounding up the rest of the top level action from Deauville and York, and Wesley Ward with a glorious reflection on Bacio's Nunthorpe.
