Inside Aidan O'Brien's life beyond horse racing with wife and children including trainer son Joseph
AIDAN O'Brien marked his latest career milestone over the weekend as Lambourn became the 20th horse to complete the Anglo-Irish double . Aidan, 55, was joined in the celebratory scenes at the Curragh's winners enclosure by wife Ann-Marie. 3 Celebrating Saturday's victory in the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby with wife Anne-Marie Credit: Inpho 3 Saturday's success was the 17th time he's trained an Irish Derby winner Credit: PA 3 Son Joseph, 32, is a rising star as a trainer Credit: Getty Here, SunSport delves into his life beyond the race track with Ann-Marie and their four children. WHERE IS AIDAN O'BRIEN FROM? The Ballydoyle handler hails from County Wexford though his yard is actually located in Tipperary near Rosegreen. It is owned by John Magnier and Coolmore Stud. He was born on October 16 1969 as one of six kids. His dad Denis was involved in the racing industry but only as a small-time trainer with his day job being farming. Aidan went to secondary school at New Ross' Good Counsel College. Interestingly, he's been a proud pioneer since his teenage days and has always abstained from alcohol. Read More On Irish Sport WHO IS AIDAN O'BRIEN'S WIFE? He and Anne-Marie tied the knot in 1991. They have four children with racing fans needing no introduction to son Joseph who at 32, has already established himself as a quality trainer in his own right. But their three other offspring in son Donnacha and daughters Sarah Anastasia have also been jockeys before so the whole family is steeped in the sport. Aidan is no relation to Irish racing icon Vincent O'Brien who dominated on both sides of the Irish Sea before Aidan took over the Ballydoyle stables after he retired in 1994. PERSONAL INSIGHTS The flat legend largely keeps his private life just that. Most read in Horse Racing But in a rare feature interview last year with In the piece he's compared to Aidan O'Brien loses his cool in passionate TV interview after Lambourn wins Irish Derby But days of failure still come such as Asked how he deals with setbacks like that, O'Brien emphasized compartmentalising is a crucial aspect of the racing game since it is such a relentless calendar. He outlined: "Look, when the day is bad like that, I get on the plane and I sleep. That's the first thing, to cut myself off. "When I get home, I'll have two or three hours work to do in the yard and set up tomorrow morning. "That takes me to bed time. I'll go straight to sleep and when I get up, I never thinking about yesterday. It's gone. "By thinking about it, you're not going to get it back. You have to get focused on the days in front and learn from the things we need to be working on. "I can sleep no problem. If you don't sleep, the next day you'll be destroyed and the reason I would sleep is to let your mind heal, relax and go on. "If you start off the day after not sleeping it's going to be a disaster the next day and that's a little bit of a strange thing that I've done over the years."

Today's top TV and streaming choices: The Bourne Ultimatum, Crime Scene Cleaners and Shark Whisperer
An Ghig Mhór RTÉ One, 8.30pm The latest established musician lending their expertise to an up-and-coming band is Wyvern Lingo member Karen Cowley, who performs under the name of Krea during her solo career. She takes rockers The Hex from Leixlip under her wing. The excellent Australian crime drama based on the novels of Chris Hammer is back for a second season. This time reporter Martin (Luke Arnold) unearths terrifying secrets during a rare visit to his home town with his new partner Mandy (Bella Heathcote). Continues on Tuesday. Crime Scene Cleaners Channel 4, 10pm Not for the faint-hearted, this new series follows groups of cleaners who have one of the world's most gruesome jobs — clearing up the mess left behind by violent crime. The first episode features the discovery of a body in rural Kent and two grisly murders from across the USA. The Bourne Ultimatum TG4, 9.30pm Espionage thriller in which Matt Damon reprises his role as Jason Bourne. He finally regains his memory, only to discover he's been targeted by a CIA director (David Strathairn). Shark Whisperer Netflix, streaming now Whether you deem her a social media opportunist or a 'changemaking' conservationist, you can't quibble with the (literal) name Ocean Ramsay has made for herself. Melding striking visuals with a close character study, the film dissects the ethical and ecological dilemmas at the heart of environmental activism. Perspectives from scientists, indigenous voices, and conservationists — on all sides — reveal the complexity of Ramsay and the issues she raises. Squid Game Netflix, streaming now Brace yourselves… In the wildly anticipated third and final season of Squid Game, Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae, aka player 456) returns. Haunted by incremental loss, he's determined to end the deadly competition once and for all. His clash with the enigmatic Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) escalates into a (surprise, surprise) grave battle of strategy and morality, as new games and old enemies collide. With the expected level of twists — including a baby being added to the mix and the viral Gachapon craze (plastic vending balls to you) putting in a pivotal appearance — the stakes are high. As surviving players face progressively brutal choices, the line between justice and tainted vengeance increasingly blurs. Can humanity survive the harshest reality? As the world awaits the final answer, writer-director Hwang Dong-hyuk promises a powerful conclusion to the global phenomenon. I think we'll be the collective judges of that. The Charles Ponzi Story AppleTV+, streaming now We've all heard of Ponzi schemes, but what do you know of their namesake? He was a broke immigrant based in 1920s Boston, who rocketed to wealth and infamy in mere months by orchestrating what would become known as the infamous scheme, one of history's boldest financial frauds.
