389: Albert Einstein flops, Dubai World Cup night reviewed & Constitution Hill's Flat future

Join Tom Kerr, Chris Cook and Matt Rennie to discuss a dramatic week in horseracing. The big story of the week is Albert Einstein's Curragh flop. The panel ask what to make of his disappointing performance — and what it means for the Classic market. The panel also discuss Calandagan extending his world-champion sequence and Ombudsman's smooth victory at the Dubai World Cup meeting, all staged against the backdrop of regional conflict. Constitution Hill made it two from two on the Flat at Kempton. The panel consider how far he can realistically go — and whether the sport is making the most of its best story. Plus, the government has rejected levy reform after three years of review, leaving the BHA calling for affordability checks to be scrapped as a quid pro quo. Is there any hope of that happening, and what does it mean for racing? Finally, the Flat turf season got under way at Doncaster and the panel share the stories they're looking forward to in the season ahead.
