Yeah, it’s essentially put 275k on a horse race. Would be hard to ever get over losing that amount of money unless you were seriously wealthy and considering he only gambled a fiver I somehow doubt he is.

A great tribute from AP on the occasion of Richard Johnson’s retirement.

Very nice words from AP.

Fair play to Johnson, he’s been at the top of the game for years, and it’s one that us non riders will never really appreciate how hard it is.

Barney Curley has sadly passed away at the age of 81.

Absolute legend of the game responsible for masterminding the Yellow Sam coup.

Big loss. RIP.

Really sad to hear this, a true legend and one that wasn’t afraid to voice his opinion.

RIP

Stunning news from Coolmore that their super sire, Galilleo, has died.

A great hire on the track, but the most phenomenal stud horse in the history of the game.
