This week on Rail Talk! Joe Bianca and Jon Green welcome guest third host Michelle Yu to react to a star-studded weekend at the Breeders’ Cup.

An outstanding reporter and analyst for Santa Anita and NBC Sports, Yu gives us her railbird review of Sierra Leone’s Breeders’ Cup Classic score, what it means for champion 3-year-old honors, whether or not Thorpedo Anna has locked up a Horse of the Year trophy and everything else that stood out to her from racing’s most important weekend.

As someone who spends every day on the backstretch, Yu also speaks candidly about the new HISA amendments on their provisional suspension protocol and whether or not the program is catching actual cheaters.
