Tara Talks Racing Episode 4

Tara Madgwick - Monday September 30

We’re getting into the swing of things in podcast land so here we go again in a new episode where we talk racing and how it relates to breeding, listen in to Craig “Clocker’ Tompson and Tara Madgwick each week during spring as we talk about the past weekend where the colts had centre stage.

 

Listen to our thoughts on colts likely to be stallions of the future, why Written Tycoon’s SW to runner strike rate is not as good as other champion sires and how winning a bunch of big races does not guarantee success for a colt in the breeding barn.
