From RTÉ Documentary On One, a new documentary series telling the life story of two time Aintree Grand National winner Tiger Roll, The People’s Horse will broadcast tonight on RTÉ 2FM as part of Game On and is available to binge on podcast now ahead of this Cheltenham Festival season.
The story of Tiger Roll is one of hope and success, of an unlikely champion and a horse who has captured the hearts of the nation.
Tiger’s story is that of the ultimate underdog. From his birth in March 2010, RTÉ Documentary on One follows the young Tiger Roll through each stage of his life and career. Broadcasting every weeknight as part of Game On on RTÉ2FM, this is the ultimate build up to Tiger Roll’s final race at Cheltenham on Wednesday March 16th.
At the age of 3, he was sold for £10,000 because he was considered a failure, his career nearly over before it ever began. That was until Michael O’Leary took a chance on buying him and trainer Gordon Elliott began to build his confidence; this series reveals his struggles and triumphs on and off the track telling the story of his journey into the world of jump racing.
Available to listen on RTÉ 2FM as part of Game On every weeknight from 6pm tonight.
