Aidan O’Brien joins Emmet Kennedy on The Final Furlong Podcast for an exclusive deep dive into his powerful team for the 2025 Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Del Mar — where he bids to extend his record-breaking season of 23 Group 1 victories.

The legendary trainer — already joint second-winningmost in Breeders’ Cup history — talks through his squad with trademark insight, from precocious two-year-olds to battle-hardened stars:

• Juvenile Turf Sprint: True Love and Mission Central — can O’Brien strike again with two No Nay Nevers?
• Juvenile Fillies Turf: Precise chases a fifth straight win after Group 1 domination — could she be another Minding?
• Juvenile Turf: Gstaad aims to give Ballydoyle their fourth consecutive win in this race.
• Breeders’ Cup Turf: Minnie Hauk, the four-time Oaks heroine, seeks glory at Del Mar after her Arc near-miss.
• Breeders’ Cup Mile: The Lion in Winter looks to break through at the top level.
• Filly & Mare Turf: Bedtime Story looks to crown a remarkable season for her sire Frankel.

O’Brien reflects on maintaining Group 1 excellence across generations, the art of keeping elite older horses like Kyprios thriving, and why Christophe Soumillon could be key to another Breeders’ Cup masterclass.

With 23 Group 1 wins already, and with strong chances in six Grade 1 races at Del Mar and Hong Kong still to come, could 2025 be Aidan O’Brien’s greatest ever season?
