J Margaret Clarke Turfcall Comment
 It is not the BHA  who is increasing the quality of the thoroughbred, it is Coolmore and Darley together with other great Studs and great horsemen who are doing that.

“FOR young conditionals, the first wave of publicity is often the last. They disappear as quickly as they arrive, but Aidan Coleman has kicked on since he came to prominence  in April 2008 …
