George and Charlie: Off the Bridle

George and Charlie: Off the Bridle

Newmarket trainers George Scott and Charlie Fellowes extend their rivalry beyond the racecourse with a twice a month podcast. ‘George and Charlie Off The Bridle’ is a mix of heavyweight opinion and racing banter. Happily they often have a special guest to help keep the peace. Plus, they have sports journalist and co-host Tony Rushmer ensuring that tempers don’t boil over (most of the time). Partnered by our good friends @Fitzdares.

    As you may have noticed, it’s been a while!

    S5E6 - Catches win matches
    Much of the nation has been absorbed in Baz-ball this summer…here in Newmarket George has been busy with his own brand of cricket: George-ball. It’s his game, he captains the team and, to be fair, he takes all the catches. He’s also been training plenty of winners in the last few weeks. Charlie has also been in fine form with a nice Saturday double following on from a 100 grand success in the Racing League – on which, you won’t be surprised to know, he has some interesting thoughts. In fact, Charlie, George and Tony are in full-scale chipper mood throughout another lively episode that features plenty of King George and Goodwood chat. Check it out…

    S5E4 - Time to dream...
    Our latest episode is all about dreams; two-year-old dreams, the Derby dream and – um – Vadream. Yes, George looks to have a bit of a whizz-bang in the shape of Watch My Tracer, who won impressively on debut at Yarmouth and is Coventry Stakes-bound. Charlie experienced the joy of a Group-race winner at Newmarket on 2,000 Guineas day, thanks to Vadream getting up to score in the Palace House Stakes. And, with the Derby upon us, we had the great pleasure of talking to Alan Cooper, racing manager for the Niarchos Family, who will be represented in the most famous Classic of them all by Passenger. Charlie also reflects on Nottingham Forest beating the drop and is predicting a bold show in the next week or so from one of his improvers. To find out who it is, give us a listen!
