The Legend of Arkle: Pat Taaffe, bottled Guinness and Tolka Park
It is fifty years this week since the death of Arkle, considered the greatest race horse of them all.
His story is deeply entangled with Dublin - from Rathcoole jockey Pat Taaffe to a Guinness advertising career, and from Tolka Park to Dominic Behan.
