Betfair Ascot Chase Preview, Champion Hurdle Preview and Charlie Deutsch interview
Episode description
In the fourth edition of Racing Weekly, Rishi Persad and Sam Turner are joined by in-form jockey Charlie Deutsch for a chat about Royal Pagaille and Funambule Sivola who continued its sparkling form at Newbury at the weekend for Venetia Williams.
Some unsavoury topics had to be discussed in the Talking Topics section as Sir Mark Todd, a licensed trainer and double Olympic gold medal-winning equestrian rider had to issue an apology after a video showing him hitting a horse with a branch. We also mention Brian Hughes who has stated that at present he doesn’t have a single ride at the Cheltenham Festival.
In Festival Focus, Sam and Rishi preview the Unibet Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham Festival and look at the without the favourite markets given the dominance of Honeysuckle.
Later, there's a brief Betfair Ascot Chase preview and we get Turner's Tip ahead of a decent weekend of racing at Ascot and Haydock.
