AFTER more than 30 years working in racing and over a decade as the sport’s senior medical officer, Dr Adrian McGoldrick will retire later this year and he can expect to receive a mantlepiece full of awards between now and then.

The first of many well-deserved honours bestowed upon ‘the Doc’ came at last Saturday’s The Irish Field Point-to-Point Awards in Wexford, where he received the Anglesey Lodge Personality of the Year Award.
