"And yes, “years” is the operative term. When Peter Fuller, the owner of Dancer’s Image, sued (unsuccessfully) over the disputed DQ of his horse from the 1968 Derby because of a post-race drug positive, the case was batted about in the courts until 1973."

1). Feature: Emma Berry pays tribute to the recently retired Pat Smullen.

"A no-nonsense jockey who was doubtless as feared by his colleagues on the track as he was revered off it, Smullen’s inscrutability in his race-riding days has turned to refreshing candour since he was forced to stand down from doing that which he loved best."

2). Op-Ed: Piet Ramzan BVsc FRCVS, a partner at Rossdales in Newmarket, offers a veterinary perspective on the recent debate regarding scoping sales yearlings.

"While videoendoscopy is a useful tool, it is not a flawless modality and certainly does not eliminate the problem of vets disagreeing on assessment of laryngeal function.

3). Interview: Daithi Harvey sits down with Irish jockey Oisin Orr.

“Getting rides in stakes races is difficult and to get a chance like that was great and to win was even better. To win in those [Juddmonte] colours was also special.
