Racing TV published this video item, entitled “Donald McCain – My life in racing | Luck On Sunday | Ballabriggs | Overturn | Peddlers Cross” – below is their description.
Donald McCain makes a belated first appearance on Luck On Sunday and reveals that he’s in the best place he’s been in for a long time after an eventful time as a racehorse trainer since assuming the licence from his father, the legendary Ginger McCain, back in the 2006/07 National Hunt season.
The trainer has amassed over 1,000 winners from his Bankhouse base in Cholmondeley, Cheshire and tells us more about his formative years, learning from his father Donald ‘Ginger’ McCain and his time as an assistant to Newmarket trainers Luca Cumani and Sir Michael Stoute.
McCain recounts some of his early flagbearers including Cloudy Lane, who landed the Kim Muir at the Cheltenham Festival in 2012 in the trainer’s first year with a licence, and the stars of his training career so far in Grand National winner Ballabriggs, Chester Cup winner and Grade 1 jumps hero Overturn and Champion Hurdle runner-up Peddlers Cross.
The trainer gives us the inside story of his stars from yesteryear and looks to the future here in a journey which has so far comprised ups and downs – the nadir being the high-profile split with owners Paul and Clare Rooney and the removal of 60 horses from his yard back in October 2015.
The good times are coming back and Donald McCain ‘Jnr’ speaks about his professional as well as personal journey in a fascinating interview with leading presenter Nick Luck.
