'This industry cannot rely on Dubai money, we need more owners' - Ghislain Bozo
Plus Gina Bryce, Sally Ann Grassick, Micheál Orlandi and Kevin Philippart de Foy
What are you looking forward to most in 2021?
Ghislain Bozo, Meridian International The return to racing in general and Royal Ascot in particular. I also hope that Britain will take the necessary measures to shake up its industry and its prize-money. This industry cannot rely on Dubai money only, we need more owners.
Gina Bryce, Sky Sports Racing presenter Getting back on a racecourse. My son is desperate for me to take him racing so I can’t wait to get dressed up and have a day out. My parents also bred Wootton Bassett so I'm looking forward to seeing the stellar list of mares he’ll cover at Coolmore and his most expensively-bred crop of two-year-olds hit the track.
Sally Ann Grassick, ITV Racing presenter I'm very proud of the success of Thoroughbred Tales so far, a social media project which aims to share positive stories about the racing and breeding industry with a wider audience, and I look forward to seeing that continue to grow in 2021. I represent Haras de Colleville internationally and 2020 was an amazing year for all three of our sires. Kendargent continues to prove his value, his son Goken is looking like a worthy heir to the throne as leading first-season sire, while Galiway had a two-year-old Group 1 winner in Sealiway.
