RIP Vincent O'Brien. He was certainly responsible for making Ireland one of the dominant forces in horse racing. He was years ahead of his time with some of his training methods. I do believe that the Irish Times listed him as the number 1 Irish sportsman of the last century, a simple measure of how highly people thought of him on this island!
