Any owners looking for somewhere new to send horses then look no further, Shane is as good a horseman I know and is training out of a great facility

Devastating news, I never had the pleasure of meeting Stefano but we share a best mate in @EoinWalsh3 so I have heard many a story about him, and he was clearly an amazing person and talented rider. Condolences to his family and many friends around the world

The family are very grateful for the love, prayers & messages sent by the racing community across the world. 💔💔💔
