Nick is joined this morning by ITV Racing's Matt Chapman and they look at whether the fact there are only two runners in this afternoon's fillies maiden at Southwell is a sign of things to come and the first example of trainers boycotting races on grounds of poor prize money. News came through yesterday of a successful appeal by Callum Shepherd against his 18 day ban and we hear from Callum himself as well as commercial litigator, Harry Stewart Moore, who predicts whether this case may have opened pandora's box for similar future cases. Nick is also joined by Hollie Doyle, who yesterday rode her 1000th winner and cites influences from her childhood that have made her the successful, competitive, grafter she is today. Finally, following the Tattersalls Somerville sale we hear from Dermot Kilmartin on a successful couple of days for him and his son, Ruairi.
