Last month saw the first ever “across the card” double for Inside The Rails as both our hosts recorded a winner on the same day!
Ownership has “downs” to go with the “ups” and there have been some of them as well, but the joy that a winner can bring easily outweighs any disappointment along the way.
After chatting about shared ownership, the recent Great British Racing ownership event at Windsor and the latest horseracing news stories, the guys are joined by Jimmy George, Marketing Director at Tattersalls, the world’s oldest bloodstock auctioneers. Jimmy provides some great insight into the bloodstock sales industry and the history of the Tattersalls company.

Having learned how to pronounce Caldean last month, the guys are back in the classroom this month, to learn how to correctly say the name of this month’s guest, Stefano Cherchi. Now that we know that the “Ch” is pronounced in the same was as “Chianti” wine, we will be getting it right in the future!
Phil and Simon have been all over the country in July finishing up at the Racehorse Syndicates Association Race Day at Nottingham. The guys review this and the rest of their month and they look ahead to their upcoming syndicate runners before chatting about the best of the racing in the last few weeks.
They are joined by jockey, Stefano Cherchi, who has recently ridden enough winners to lose his weight claim. He chats about that along with his journey into racing and his hopes for the future.

After our first double-guest episode last month, we are at it again when we are joined by joint-training licence holders, Daniel and Claire Kubler. Daniel and Claire combine some fascinating modern science with some good old-fashioned horsemanship in the training of their horses and provide Simon and Phil with an insight into how this has helped them to succeed on the racecourse. Ahead of the interview, Simon and Phil look back at the Aintree Grand National won by a syndicate and discuss their own horses.

We are all used to hearing someone on the racecourse public address announcing winners and presentations and providing other details on a race day. Laurie Brannan was the first person to carry out this role back in the 1960s and with his son Philip still doing that job at Newbury and Goodwood, the Brannans are well used to a microphone! This month, they both joined Simon and Phil on Inside The Rails to discuss how racecourse announcing began and to recount some stories from their experiences on the racecourse. Before the interview, Simon and Phil talk about their syndicate runners and the recent syndicate showcase race day at Warwick racecourse as well as looking back at the 2023 Cheltenham Festival which Phil attended.
