Got his hands on some seriously strong parsnips. You're meant to learn your trade slowly, bit by bit. Guys banging in Melbourne cups (plural), group and grade 1s flat and jumps both sides of the Irish sea. He is barely out of nappies so what's going on???

"You're meant to learn your trade slowly, bit by bit."

Hard to imagine where Joseph could have learned the trade growing up. Maybe he listened.

Also, he's 33, not 13.

The incredible part is the hoss went from 310 kiloEuros down to 41,000 guineas, and was subsequently entered in and withdrawn from two further sales. There'll be some bloodstock agents with questions to answer.

He may be in his early 30s but how old was he when he was banging in some of the winners I've mentioned. Mid 20s. Not possible to do what he's done at such an early age. Without "aids" imo.

His "aids" were growing up in the most successful barn in racing history, and backing from some of the biggest owners. His dad wasn't a dairy farmer who kept a couple of horses in the spare field.

He's what da yoof call a nepo baby.

Trouble is as the family and their owners practically own Irish racing would the authorities dare to take any action if dirty nappy or dirty donnacha were suspected...Jim Bolger knew a few years ago..

And even better at hiding it. There's a few who know they are untouchable.
