have been saying this for years in Australia where I get told I'm out of the loop. Sadly music is now such a big part of racing here that it is a turn-off to being on course.

@MCYeeehaaa shares his thoughts on the entertainment at Epsom last weekend, and what he would change at the Derby Festival going forward... #ChapmansCall

Honoured to have officially been granted our UK trainer’s licence by the BHA. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed competing at all the major festivals the past two years, an experience we want to share with all our Australian owners.
We plan to purchase and have in work 4-6 horses each Summer in the UK, before repatriating them to Ballarat to continue their careers.
We’ll likely have three runners at Royal Ascot next week, something we’d love to build on each year.

Tokyo Yushun and Sheema Classic winner Shahryar covered 82 mares in his first season - only has seven foals on the ground.
Two of the seven foals are out of Australian-bred mares - a filly out of G1 winner Single Gaze (pictured) and a colt out of More Than Ready mare Yuletide.
