Love that he still lives at Martinstown Stud with JP McManus. All the activity and younger horses in training around him probably keeps him young :D

Three Japanese horses have been nominated to the G1 Irish Champion this year.

Panthalassa(JPN)(H6. Lord Kanaloa) --- G1s Dubai Turf and Saudi Cup winner
Dura Erede(JPN)(C3. Duramente) -- G1 Hopeful Stakes winner
Through Seven Seas(JPN)(M5. Dream Journey) -- G2 Nakayama Himba Stakes winner

It looks as if Japanese owners liked Ireland better than France, haha! :lol:

Little Big Bear is back last in the gns and was dropped back to 6 fur today he won the Sandy Lane Stakes group 2 nicely

I would have thought the Commonwealth Cup would be next at Royal Ascot and then the July Cup at Newmarket.

Paddington was impressive. Interesting to see Kentucky Derby hero Alysheba in the pedigree on the damside.

Yeah that is cool. Moonlight Dance is one of only 2 G1 winners he sired, along with Alywow.

He also was the broodmare sire of multiple group I winner Grandera. Good horse.
