    Mighty plane for bringing the horses to the states. Amazing the money that's in the industry. The horses were in perfect condition after the long flight - much better than I'd be anyway. :)

    He's a manc? Didn't he go to Anfield with Xabi a few years back for his show on TG4?

    He's probably never been to a game in his life.

    Its a fantastic set up, and very professional..it was well worth watching again.They seem very down to earth,and friendly.
    The top stallion was also shown (Sadlers Wells), his stud fees remained private..but they reckon it varied from €200k to €400k, the breeding is where the real money is made.
    Not forgetting rock of gibraltar, and the breeding fees there. and slur looking for his cut,and the greedy ******* never handed a penny over for the horse,in the first place.

    Aye, he presented Xabi with a Meath jersey and a bog-ball as Xabi spent a summer or two in Kells or somewhere like as a teenager. Xabi did a few solo's with the bog-ball.
