AS a professional gambler, former on-course bookmaker and racehorse owner, Luke McMahon is a multiple racing stakeholder. His views on a variety of sectors within the sport/industry are always worth hearing.

The fan in us all wants to be an owner and McMahon has enjoyed a good degree of success. He knows plenty of bad luck too however. Grade 1 winner Whiskey Sour, Cheltenham victor Bleu Berry and Uradel will all sit out the entire 2019-2020 campaign due to injury.
