BRYAN Cooper will be interviewed on The Late Late Show this Friday night.

With 532 race wins, nine of those at Cheltenham including a Gold Cup, the Tralee man’s retirement, aged 30 came as a surprise last month.

But behind it all, a fear of falling that developed gradually over his career, left him unable to continue in the sport he has loved all his life. Bryan will share his story with Ryan Tubridy and the viewers tomorrow night.

Among the other guests on the show will be former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, US Ambassador to Ireland Claire Cronin, singer Brian Kennedy and GAA All-Stars.
