Ep 130: The Racing Edge Podcast Ep 49 – Gordon Elliott on his Dublin Racing Festival hopes

On this week’s episode of The Racing Edge podcast, Gordon Elliott speaks to Mark Boylan about his big guns heading to the Dublin Racing Festival. The 41-time Cheltenham Festival-winning trainer gives the latest on Brighterdaysahead, Romeo Coolio and a bumper horse who he says could surprise a few at Leopardstown. Mark Costello and Anne Marie Duff reflect on Jonbon’s win in the Clarence House Chase, and weigh up whether Barry Connell crossed a line when branding the Grade 1 a “Mickey Mouse race”. While final fields were awaiting to be published at the time of recording, the team give their selections for Thursday’s Goffs Thyestes Chase at Gowran and look forward to Cheltenham Festival Trials Day on Saturday. Does Anne Marie reckon we’ll see the Champion Hurdle winner in action this weekend? Mark Costello also shares some insight from an encouraging day at Thurles, where a strong crowd turned out for a meeting with free admission.
