    This was published yesterday on Paul Keanes website:
    I am delighted to report that Neil Mulholland was passed fit this afternoon to resume race riding and he will return to action for the yard on Sunday at either Towcester or Plumpton. Neil has been riding out and schooling for the past couple of weeks and he can’t wait to get back on the track. Joe Tizzard did a superb job while Neil was laid up and I will continue to support Joe when opportunities present

    RIP and run free with your brother Best Mate x

    The mare this family was from has 5 foals, sadly 3 are no longer with us, they are Best Mate, Inca Trail and Inexorable, Sidalcea the only female from this family had 3 runs in 2004 and has not run since, but I would think she is at a stud somewhere in Ireland, and then there is Cornish Rebel, who last ran in April this year…..hope this family does not have any more tragic endings

    Game is the best place, and they do great deals, go for a bundle and t will save you money, and get a reward card and earn points to spend in store, also you can trade games for a decent price, you can buy in shop (see store locator for your nearest) or buy online http://www.game.co.uk/Wii/ I get all my gaming stuff from there, just ordered Call of Duty 4, which will be out next week….

    or try Games Station http://www.gamestation.co.uk/ whixh is also another good gaming shop…

    I have 4 JRT but I agree Greyhounds are like racehorses, they have a life after racing, there is always a ad in the RP for rehoming them, and look up most tracks and they have a rehoming section. My friend has just got a ex racing greyhound and he is lush lol!

    Istabraq was originally bought to be trained by John Durkan, but sadly he got cancer and the horse was sent to Aiden, and the rest is history, his sister in law is Frances Crowley who took majority of his jumpers, has he was given a offer by Tabor, Coolmoore etc that would have been silly if he refused.

    It would have been interesting, but I doubt we would have seen the likes of George etc doing well as they have

    I was sad to read this, when I lived in Newmarket I used to see him everyday on the heath, he was a playful bugger….

    I never said I had not sat on a horse for years, I took 2 years out due to serious illness to which I nearly died, I resumed riding about a year ago, but my mum rides her own horses and have not had a horse of my own to bring on in a few years due to my last horse dying of colic..
    Guess you dont know me that well…

    Anyway I got better things to than come on here…
