William Hill racing ambassador Jane Mangan spent a morning with Philip Rothwell and his team at their Tinahely Co. Wicklow base, as we pass the halfway stage in the Each Way Extra Challenge Series.

Rothwell currently leads the series with 20 races to go and is pole position to scoop the €50,000 top trainer prize.

His team are also in with a big chance of landing the €10,000 prize awarded to the stable staff in the William Hill Challenge Series as they hold a 7 point lead over Gavin Cromwell's staff.

In this video Jane Mangan talks to Philip about his early years in the sport and the valuable insights he gained from working with Champion Trainers Willie Mullins and Aidan O'Brien.

Dedicated team driving Tinahely success

Rothwell's busy yard is thriving and much of this success is down to a strong and dedicated team. Jane Mangan chats to all the key members of that team including stable jockey Tiernan Power Roche who sits in second place in the current standings in the jockeys' section of the William Hill Each Way Extra Challenge Series.

All of the team at Philip Rothwell's stables are excited by the prospects of winning the Challenge Series and the financial rewards associated with victory.
