Nick is joined by journalist and broadcaster Cornelius Lysaght to discuss the latest from around the racing world. With the news of veteran Derby-winning trainer Paul Cole's impending retirement, we look back at his career highlights in the company of longstanding owner Dr Jim Hay. Plus, with the Irish Derby the highlight of the weekend action, Curragh CEO Brian Kavanagh joins the show to preview the event and to discuss its future, addressing some of the criticism over the shape of the card. We enjoy time in the company of Jim Bolger this morning, who reminisces over the famous triumphs of St Jovite and Trading Leather, two of the three fastest Derby winners in history. Also on the show, GBB Operations manager Charlie Newton charts 5 years of the bonus scheme, which has now distributed over £20m, while Timeform's Dan Barber puts some meat on the bones of our "best performances at Thirsk" chat from yesterday.
