The Profile
The horse racing career behind the headlines.
Bruce Lane is a familiar name in British horse racing broadcasting and has become a regular at Steam, hosting three summer racing preview events that have become something of a tradition in our calendar. His knowledge of the summer racing programme, Glorious Goodwood, and the Royal Ascot build-up is encyclopedic.
His events are less about celebrity story telling and more about practical racing insight, which makes them a different kind of Steam evening from the sport speaker lunches. Guests come away with tips, form analysis, and a much better understanding of what to watch for at the major summer meetings.
“Summer racing is about patience. The big meetings reward the people who have been reading form all year, not the ones who turn up on Tuesday hoping for a tip.”
