Summary

Join Maddy Playle, Peter Scargill and Lewis Porteous to discuss a varied week in the world of horseracing. The panel start by unpacking Dan Skelton's remarkable £4 million prize-money achievement and consider what will be next as the trainer hunts down his first championship title. A glowing report from Aidan O'Brien saw Albert Einstein shoot to 2,000 Guineas favouritism last week, but Peter believes the market has overreacted. The team also discuss O'Brien's powerful squad for the upcoming Flat season. The team unpack why declining foal crops, affordability checks and tax rises are points of concern for British racing, with Tattersalls airing their worries in Companies House documents last week. Finally, anticipation is rising ahead of Constitution Hill's second Flat start at Kempton on Wednesday. Lewis disagrees with Matt Chapman's belief that Ryan Moore is a bad jockey booking and the trio discuss what the future will hold for the public's favourite horse.
