William Hill jumps at racing podcast opportunity in Ireland
William Hill has teamed up with two high-profile racing figures in Ireland, with Jane Mangan and Barry Geraghty set to host Inside Track: Ireland for the British bookmaker giant.
The foray into podcasts marks a first for William Hill, with the show to focus on the Irish racing scene, and feature high-profile guests from the racing industry.
Mangan is a leading broadcaster, featuring regularly on Racing TV and is the face of RTE’s racing coverage, while Barry Geraghty is a 43-time Cheltenham Festival and Grand National-winning former jockey who himself has become a staple of racing TV and content.
Both are William Hill ambassadors and will co-host the podcast alongside a series of can’t-miss famous racing names. The first two episodes are live now, with the latest previewing this weekend’s Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown.
Inside Track: Ireland’s first episodes also include an interview with top Irish trainer Philipp Rothwell.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be hosting this new podcast with William Hill,” Mangan said.
“Irish racing has such depth and character, and this show gives us the chance to really dig into the stories, the people behind it all and the upcoming action.
“Having Barry (Geraghty) on board regularly, alongside a great mix of guests, means we can offer listeners informed insight as well as honest discussion ahead of the biggest meetings in the calendar. I’m excited to get started, beginning with such a brilliant weekend at the Dublin Racing Festival.”
William HIll’s Head of Marketing in Ireland Andrew McLeave said they were excited at the prospect of bringing Mangan and Geraghty together was too good to refuse.
“We’re thrilled to be launching this new Irish racing podcast and content series, Inside Track: Ireland, and to have someone of Jane’s caliber leading it,” he said.
“Jane and Barry bring enormous credibility, knowledge, and passion for the sport, which aligns perfectly with our ambition to support and promote national hunt racing across Ireland.
“This podcast and content series is another important step in our continued investment in the sport, giving fans high-quality, engaging content as we build towards the major spring festivals and beyond.”
Inside Track: Ireland can be watched across all platforms including Youtube and Spotify.
