We chat with a lady who has never let go of her dream. Melbourne based Victoria Shaw has been trying to find a livelihood as a race caller for more than twenty years.

Many of Bryan Martin’s friends were surprised when he quit race calling at age 57 in 2007.  They were not one bit surprised when he decided on a comeback for Radio SEN, three years later.

On the podcast is popular jockey Jay Ford who enjoyed a good season in 2017/18. As a 20 year old Jay formed an association with champion sprinter Takeover Target who took him around the world several times, and brought him seven Group One wins.

On the podcast we catch up with retired race caller Kevin Thompson. He excelled as a commentator in all three codes spending twenty years at Kembla and thirty years at Harold Park. Almost three years ago he suffered a stroke following multiple bypass surgery, leaving him with an impairment to his peripheral vision. He could call a race tommorow but isn't allowed to drive his car to the track. 

Our Podcast Episode 9 features popular jockey Corey Brown soon to represent Australia in the Shergar Cup Jockeys Challenge at Royal Ascot. The dual Melbourne Cup winning rider talks openly about the highs and lows of his brilliant career. 

Kerry Parker has guided the career of Dark Dream from a Moruya Maiden to a Queensland Derby in just 7 months. Kerry now joins the Group 1 club after several placings at the elite level. Kerry talks about Dark Dream's future on Tappy's podcast this week. (Image Courtesy of Mark Bradley Photography)
