Ep 150: The Racing Edge Podcast Ep 68 – Sarah Lynam joins our Irish Guineas Festival recap
The Irish Field podcastsShow Notes
Tune in to this week’s episode of The Racing Edge Podcast for a comprehensive rundown of all the Group 1 action on Tattersalls Irish Guineas weekend at the Curragh, with Mark Boylan, Anne Marie Duff, and Mark Costello joined by Sarah Lynam for analysis.
Podcast listeners would have been in clover if following the advice of Amy Lynam last week when Headmaster dramatically got on top close home to win Saturday’s Irish Stallion Farms EBF Habitat Handicap at 14/1 under Dylan Browne McMonagle. Sarah astutely bought the blue-blooded four-year-old for 48,000gns last October and plays a key role in his training with her father, Eddie.
The RTÉ Radio and TG4 pundit weighs in on all the major talking points from the Curragh, which saw Aidan O’Brien complete a big-race double in the Tattersalls Irish 2000 and 1000 Guineas courtesy of Gstaad and Precise. Can Saturday’s winner reverse Newmarket form with Bow Echo in the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot? Is Precise a likely stayer if stepping up in trip for the Betfred Oaks at Epsom?
The team each nominates beaten eye-catchers from the Curragh and looks forward to the French Derby this weekend, a Group 1 seemingly likely to feature the well-touted Constitution River. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
