THURSDAY’S Goffs Thyestes Day at Gowran is one of those race days that always get a great crowd from the surrounding counties. The last two winners of the feature race have both gone on to finish second in the Gold Cup at Cheltenham so the quality of the contest cannot be underestimated.
The race does not really spark that much interest in the British media. Nevertheless it remains incredible that the 2016 race did not actually merit a mention on the Racing Post online news thread on Thursday evening.
