GORDON Elliott has enjoyed a phenomenal campaign. He has batted away questions about the trainers championship over the last few months, but leaving that aside, this season, he has saddled 153 winners and they have earned over €3m.

To put the former figure into context, back in the 2013/14 season, Elliott saddled 57 domestic winners. He has more horses now (the yard can accommodate 170), but it has been remarkable what he has achieved over the last four years.
