Tara Talks Racing - Bonus Episode- Cup Week Intrigue

Tara Madgwick - Friday November 8

The Melbourne Cup, a great Australian result. Could you have found the winner? We go back to 1903 for guidance. The Oaks wash up, USA mares - have you bought one this week?

We talk about Storm Boy's future, go through some key stats for Champions Day and 2YO racing on Saturday - more black type that isn't black type, a frustration for 1st season sires.
