Peter Casey being interviewed by Tracy Piggott on RTE.
STAMULLEN HORSE training legend Peter Casey left RTE and sports presenter Tracy Piggott rather flushed after an excited outburst on live TV.
The veteran trainer landed the biggest race win of his career when Flemenstar won the Grade One Frank Ward Solicitors Arkle Steeplechase ar Leopardstown.
Ms Piggott caught up with him directly afterwards and a delighted Peter declared 'I can't believe it. I'll have sex tonight and everything!'
'I'm going to get in terrible trouble after that,' laughed Ms Piggott, as she directed the trainer away to continue the celebrations, which had already begun outside the enclosure.
RTE presenters had to apologise quickly afterwards, but the comment has now become an internet sensation and within hours had hit over 70,000 views on Youtube.
As for Flemenstar, the horse loved the heavy going and won by some 19 lengths, a remarkable distance in such a level of racing. Peter remarked later that the Powers Gold Cup might be a next option for the horse, owned by Stephen Curran.
