Nick - in South Florida ahead of the Pegasus World Cup - is joined by award winning Racing Post writer Jonathan Harding, who reports from the UK ahead of Cheltenham Trials Day. We hear from a confident Jimmy Mangan about the chances of Spillane's Tower in this weekend's Cotswold Chase, while French agent Bertrand le Metayer details the long road back to the racecourse for Cleeve Hurdle entry Theleme, plus Dan Barber looks at trainers in form through the Timeform lens. In Florida, Nick catches up at some length with colourful and charismatic owner Michael Iavarone, whose quest to finally have a winner on Pegasus Day sees him with eleven runners on the card. Meanwhile, Ellerslie Park Executive GM Craig Baker has news of this weekend's big fixture in New Zealand, the Karaka Millions, while James McDonald pays his own tribute to the retiring Via Sistina, and offers justification for the decision to race Romantic Warrior exclusively in Hong Kong this year.
