Not all trainers will be able to do this obviously for their own financial reasons but big effort from Mick Easterby for his owners at a difficult time

8 years ago Pat Smullen lifted this trophy after winning the @ayrracecourse Gold Cup on Captain Ramius, bought by my late father as a foal for long time family friend Clodagh McStay. It seems fitting to be here this week of all week’s for @itvracing @OaklawnStud @mcstayagent

Great to come home from Haydock last night for a first cuddle of many with my new foal,a full brother to "The Prince" by Starspangledbanner. He will have a long way to go to replace his older brother but be warned there will be a lot of photos of him over next few months!

So sad to hear the lovely Bleu Et Rouge had to be put down after his fall @NewcastleRaces ,he was such a sweet horse and loved by everyone in JP MacManus, @WillieMullinsNH and @BenHaslamRacing teams especially @niallkelly55 who rode him for such a long time

I learnt so much from John Dunlop as his pupil assistant at Castle Stables and my family’s involvement goes back much further than that to the happy days of Millenary,Leggera,Snowfire,Let The Lion Roar. My thoughts are with all the Dunlop family. Rest in peace Guv’nor

So nice to be back at @paris_longchamp on @equidia after two years away. Thanks to @Hobbs_London for another beautiful outfit which gave me an excuse to wear stunning @Rebeccacouture_ hat again but how embarrassing to turn up in same outfit as Arc winning jockey @RenePiechulek !

This can only mean one thing... time to get back to work @itvracing for the jumps season! And what better way to do it than with my first ever day working for ITV on Irish soil @ClonmelR with a great day’s racing in store!
