It's Episode 19:
The story (so far) of Diego Velazquez: Jess unpacks how a shrewd move brought the iconic Sangster–Magnier partnership back to the winners’ enclosure — a tale of good timing and inspired bloodstock business.
Jess is joined by Joe Bradley of The National Stud, who explains the significance of Diego Velazquez joining their stallion roster for 2026 and what it really takes for a racehorse to make the leap into stallion duties.
Plus, trainer Jamie Insole reflects on the first European yearling sale of 2025 at Arqana in Deauville, the type of yearlings he’s looking to buy, and how he found himself celebrating on the winners’ podium with Team Diego Velazquez.
