Description

Welcome to the latest edition of Straight Talk with Bren O'Brien and Tim Rowe, brought to you by Inglis and Darely.


This episode covers a turbulent Everest week: rumours around Ka Ying Rising, market moves and betting implications, plus a preview of Mazu's bid for a third Everest with insights from Chris Ward.


We also discuss John Kanga's sudden departure from the MRC and the ATC's response to Racing NSW's show cause questions, and Moonee Valley track queries.


There is also a deep conversation with Sebastian Hutch about the Inglis Ready-to-Run Sale and industry issues, track stallion and wagering developments, and highlights from the Ready 2 Race sale.
