- One of the most colourful owners ever seen in British horse racing in recent times is set for a return to the sport.
Anthony Knott, a daiy farmer from Dorset, was catapulted to wider fame principally through the remarkable exploits of Hunt Ball, the gelding trained in the small yard of then first-season trainer Kieran Burke, who remarkably rose the ranks to the tune of nearly 100lbs within a season which included Cheltenham Festival glory under Nick Scholfield.
The charismatic Knott was an indelible part of the story - confessing after that Festival triumph that he was wary of not being able to go back to Dorset if his horse had been beaten given "even the paperboys had backed it" - but things also went downhill after those giddy highs, with the owner parting ways from Burke and then being warned off by the British Horseracing Authority after a separate and later charge.
Here, Knott sits down in this one-on-one interview with Nick Luck - joined by Luck On Sunday regular David Yates - to recount those remarkable days a decade ago and just exactly what Knott has been up to since and what he's doing now.

A smashing interview. Can anyone tell me why Talking Points does not get shown on You Tube much?
Racing needs more characters like him
And less of “paid bookies men”
This member of the press is the pits I Remember him when jockeys are being interviewed sticking a recorder in their face 🥵🥵🥵🥵
Agreed he's a snob and useless at analysis it's killing him to wish the guy all the best get him off this program
His name is Dave Yates , i hate him with a vengeance - he epitomizes everything wrong with uk horse racing imo
Good ole get your big head on TV dave Yates again. My god surely yous can do better than that.😮
WOKE society now won’t allow characters these crazy woke days ,🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵
Nick Luck is a typical passive aggressive, patronising englishman
His nickname is Lord Snooty for a good reason.
