Surprise! It’s a bonus episode of Rail Talk, our second of the week. Only one thing could spur Joe Bianca and Jon Green to return to their mics so quickly—a guest spot by the mysterious and brilliant Tinky. If you’re not familiar, @Tinky47flat has taken horse racing Twitter by storm in recent months with eloquent, funny and insightful posts taking to task some of the biggest names in the game.

Clearly well versed in the history of racing, Tinky had heretofore never been seen or heard from outside of his Twitter posts. But he took Joe and Jon up on their invitation to lend his voice to their open and honest discussions on Rail Talk, and the results were magic. The three instantly clicked and talked frankly about many of racing’s biggest hot-button issues, including Bob Baffert, The Jockey Club, HISA and ‘commissioner’ Mike Repole.
