Ep 149: The Racing Edge Podcast Ep 67 – Karl Burke on his Irish Guineas weekend raid

Karl Burke has become a mainstay in major Irish prizes in recent seasons, and the top trainer joins this week’s episode of The Racing Edge Podcast to discuss his team for Tattersalls Irish Guineas Weekend at the Curragh.   Alparslan, a winner at last year’s Irish Champions Festival, is on course to tackle Gstaad in Saturday’s Tattersalls Irish 2000 Guineas, while Burke is set to run a long-absent dark horse against a strong Ballydoyle squad in the Tattersalls Irish 1000 Guineas on Sunday.   The Irish Field’s Mark Boylan is joined by Anne Marie Duff and Amy Lynam to talk through the key weekend action from Ireland and Britain, including Royal Ascot Trials Day eye-catchers from Naas and what’s next for Albert Einstein. The team weigh in on a big Grade 1 success for Willie Mullins and Paul Townend at Auteuil on Sunday with Selma De Vary.   Amy Lynam responds to a story in last week’s paper regarding a need to improve racecourse offerings to owners, while the trio also react to reports of horses being moved by Amo Racing from Robson De Aguiar. There is also a preview of the three Group 1 races upcoming at the Curragh this weekend. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Ep 148: The Racing Edge Podcast Ep 66 – Mick Murphy reflects on a memorable Arqana Breeze-Up Sale

There were almost back-to-back fireworks at the Arqana Breeze-Up Sale in France last weekend for Mick Murphy and Sarah O’Connell’s Longways Stables, as they supplied two of the sale’s top six lots sold in quick succession.   Murphy joins this week’s episode of The Racing Edge Podcast to discuss how he and his partner turned a 98,000gns yearling by Blue Point into an €800,000 breeze-up colt, as well as delivering a terrific return with a Showcasing filly, who realised €625,000 from a yearling purchase price of 140,000gns. The Longways team sold four horses for a total of €1.74 million at a sale that still presented its share of challenges for the vendors in the market.   Elsewhere on the podcast, Mark Boylan is joined by Mark Costello and Anne Marie Duff to look back on the classic trial action of the past week at Chester, Lingfield and Leopardstown. Aidan O’Brien’s French 1000 Guineas victory with the unbeaten Diamond Necklace was also the subject of discussion, as were novel initiatives to attract more racegoers to the track and previews of the Dante and Lockinge Stakes later this week. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Ep 145: The Racing Edge Podcast Ep 63 – Barry Connell talks Punchestown plans for Marine Nationale

The countdown is on ahead of the 2026 Punchestown Festival, and trainer Barry Connell joins this week’s episode of The Racing Edge Podcast to discuss Marine Nationale’s bid for back-to-back wins in the Grade 1 William Hill Champion Chase.   Last season’s runaway winner missed the Cheltenham Festival this term, but Connell provides up an upbeat bulletin before his stable star’s anticipated clash with Il Etait Temps next week. He also gives a bumper horse to follow ahead of a possible debut at Kilbeggan this week, and updates listeners on William Munny and Eachtotheirown.   Mark Boylan is joined by Mark Costello and Anne Marie Duff to look back on the classic trial action of the past week, with Anne Marie believing there is value to be found in the 2000 Guineas ante-post market.   Mark Costello offers a detailed assessment of the picture surrounding Thurles Racecourse, hot on the heels of news that the track will remain open for the coming year. There are also reflections on trade at last week’s Tattersalls Craven Breeze-Up Sale.   The team nominate their usual horses to follow from the week and look ahead to Saturday’s quality card at Sandown.   Those gearing up for next week’s Grade 1 action can receive three Punchestown tips from The Irish Field team each day of the Festival by signing up to The Punchestown Edge via our website.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
