This month on On The Coalface, Jamie Railton is joined by one of Irish racing’s great characters, Peter Molony of Rathmore Stud.

Fresh from breeding Hampton Court Stakes winner Generic, Peter reflects on every breeder’s dream of producing a Royal Ascot winner and the story behind the Adalene Partnership with Henry de Bromhead and David Redvers.

The conversation also delves into the extraordinary history of the Molony family, from Peter’s legendary father Martin and uncle Tim, to Rathmore Stud’s remarkable production of top-class performers on both the Flat and over jumps.

Peter discusses:
 • The story of Generic and his exciting full sister heading to the Goffs Orby Sale
 • Rathmore Stud's rise
 • Why County Limerick continues to produce elite racehorses
 • His work with Goffs and the people that make the industry special
 • The future of Rathmore and the next generation of the Molony family

A fascinating conversation about family, horsemanship, Irish breeding and a lifetime dedicated to horses.
