Nick is joined by RTE and Racing TV broadcaster Jane Mangan to discuss the latest from around the racing and bloodstock world. As his appeal to the IHRB concludes, beleaguered trainer Shark Hanlon outlines the details of his hearing yesterday. Also on today's show, trainer Francis Graffard hails a "bigger, stronger" Calandagan ahead of his clash with Economics in Saturday's QIPCO British Champion Stakes.

Also Down Under, rider Rachel King joins the show to discuss her Breeders' Cup/Melbourne Cup double header. Kieran Clark is in the Timeform hotseat this week, while Eliza catches up with Wharton Manor's Ed Player at the Tattersalls sales and buyer for South East Asia Eoin Sullivan is this week's Weatherbys Bloodstock guest.

Ep 1112 - Will tide turn for The Shark?

Monday is far away…
Far away…

Dancing lights, the night won’t end
No tomorrow to defend
Time dissolves in shades of grey
’Cause Monday feels so far away

Monday is far away
Monday is far away
Hold the night, don’t let it fade
Monday is far away

Clock is broken, hands don’t move
Every beat’s the only proof
Lost in rhythm, here we stay
Monday feels so far away

Monday is far away
Monday is far away
No more work, no price to pay
Monday is far away

Far away…
Not today…
Far away…
Let it stay…

Monday is far away
Monday is far away
Hold the night, don’t let it fade
Monday is far away

Monday… far away…
Monday… far away…

Monday, Far away (Acid House reload)

✨ Surrender The Night is a 130 BPM Big Room / Tech House hybrid built on pounding energy and raw passion. Clear female vocals guide the journey — breathy whispers and sensual moans in the intro, hypnotic verses that draw you in, and soaring choruses that explode with emotion.

Supersaws, deep rolling bass, and wide reverb synths create a euphoric soundscape where every drop feels like release. Vocal chops — “Take me higher,” “Touch me deeper,” “Surrender tonight,” “Give me fire” — fuel the rhythm, while crowd-clap builds and sidechained kicks amplify the drive.

The repeated hook — “All night, she’s breaking under, I drive her through the raging thunder. Every gasp, every cry, burning till the sunrise sky” — is pure passion: bodies colliding with the beat, surrendering to the fire, and burning together until dawn.

Erotic, hypnotic, and euphoric, Surrender The Night is about giving in completely — to the music, to desire, and to the moment when night turns into sunrise.

RIP Michael McComb 👼
