Description
It's Episode 24:
As December settles over Newmarket and the foal and mares’ sales draw to a close, the Sceptre Session delivered real fireworks with Porta Fortuna and Barnavara topping the headlines, while stallion farms opened their doors to showcase the sires shaping future mating plans. With the Flat sales winding down and the National Hunt scene beginning to heat up, this episode brings you a blend of both codes: with both guests looking to unearth the next champion in their sphere.
This week’s guests:
• Jerry McGrath – on National Hunt breeding, the type he looks for, and where future staying stars emerge across Britain and Europe + his thoughts on the Constitution Hill dilemma.
• Oliver McKeever – on the breaking-in process on the flat, how raw talent shows itself early, and what sets a future flat superstar on the right path.
