   Ep 172: The Racing Edge Podcast Ep 89 – Danny Gilligan on a massive family success in the Munster National

   Having been riding in Grade 1 company in New Jersey on Saturday night, jockey Danny Gilligan’s late flight home to partner Kings Hill, trained by his father Paul, in the JT McNamara Munster National proved extremely worthwhile on Sunday, when the talented grey ran out a decisive winner of the €100,000 Limerick feature. Victory in the BoyleSports-backed prize represented Danny’s first domestic winner for his dad, and he joins The Racing Edge Podcast (by The Irish Field) to discuss the major family success, as well as his ambitions for the National Hunt season ahead. Mark Boylan discusses a superb British Champions Day card in the company of Anne Marie Duff and Amy Lynam, who also weighs in on a strong week of trade at the Tattersalls October Yearling Sales. The team take an early look at this weekend’s Group 1 William Hill Futurity Trophy Stakes at Doncaster, a race with the potential to play a big part in deciding the British flat trainers’ championship.
