Adieu?

I think the others on that list just vomited seeing her included among them.

By they way, yes they have done well here, but I think the point was that those connections run a substantial majority of their best horses in Europe. If they raced them in the US instead I am quite sure they would be FAR more successful.

Because you see Tabor & Smiths names more frequently in American racing the main people behind Coolmore are John and Susan Magnier,Mrs Magnier is the daughter of the first maestro of Ballydoyle Vincent OBrien who actually trained the last English triple crown winner Nijinsky back in the early 70s.
