Tara Talks Racing – Episode 1

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday September 10

In a new Breednet innovation we’ve decided to enter the podcast world so if you’re interested in racing and how it relates to breeding listen in to Craig “Clocker’ Tompson and Tara Madgwick each week during spring.

This week we're talking about how a 21 year-old mare produced a G1 winner, why a cheap I Am Invincible can be a good one, a vintage crop of second season sires including the one that got away from Darley and speculating on Wootton Bassett and what's to come.
