Tara Talks Racing Podcast - Summer Series

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday December 3

Spring is sprung, but with G1 racing in Perth and the Magic Millions extravaganza of sales and racing set to unfold in January there is plenty of excitement in our world to inspire new owners into the sport and a bargain priced filly with an x-ray issue was the biggest story on Breednet from last weekend.

Spicy Martini is the latest SW to emerge from the paddocks of Coolmore.

An $8,000 Inglis Online purchase by one of the world’s hottest sires in Justify, Spicy Martini started life at Coolmore so we’re talking to Tom Moore about how the path from paddock to winner’s circle is not always smooth and how x-rays are a small part in a much bigger picture.
