The stable tour was for the Dublin racing festival and he was talking about the Irish arkle held there.
Anyone thinking otherwise needs to shake a leg.

No one should blame themselves.
Most of us are British. or worse English.
Colonialism is bred into us. We can't help it.
The Arkle
The Grand National
The Open
fucking Wimbledon.
Can't blame our Irish cousins for not putting Irish in front of every version of the races they've copied from us
Fucking pioneers really - Rule Britannia !
And America can get fucked as well.

Impaire Et Passe:
“He’s entered at the Dublin Racing Festival but we might just give him an entry for the Scilly Isles at Sandown, just to give him another option,” said Anthony Bromley, racing manager to owners Simon Munir and Isaac Souede. “I imagine Willie will stay on home soil, he has five or six in the race and I imagine he will run all of them. He’s got the likes of Ballyburn, Champ Kiely and others in there.
“The entry for Sandown would just give us another option though, then we can have a think about it and decide through the week. He’s ready to roll.”
Bromley added: “I’ve been pleased how he’s been switching off in his races and he’s seeing them out well. He’s been finishing off much better than he ever did over hurdles last season and I think he’s a healthier horse this year – we’re excited to see him out again.”

Jagear looked pretty useful and left the impression there was plenty more to come. Won that off 144 (I think) - I’m here at the course and see he is fav for the Jack Richard’s (old Turners) but I have a recall that he might not get in that is if there is a ceiling. Does anyone recall whether there is a ceiling otherwise maybe The Plate.

I imagine he'll get 5lbs for that, maybe a little more, but no ceiling on the races so both the JR & Plate are options.
Be interesting to see what connections come out and say.
