Good chance for Celtic Cailin to get her nose in front

I love all sport, so I have been glued to the Olympics since returning after my involvement with the eventers.

We have enjoyed tremendous success with Katie Taylor winning her gold medal and the other boxers winning three others. Cian O’Connor was fantastic too, and might easily have had gold or silver, instead of bronze.

In fact, all the sports apart from athletics seems to have done well and I think adopting good, strong high performance programmes is the key to it. Certainly that is the case in equestrianism. They only have the high performance managers in place for four years and the progress in that time has been unbelievable. Four years isn’t a long time in the context of high performance programmes so there is more to come. What has happened in boxing shows us that.
