The remarkable O Brien Family

Well done Frank.Well done to the O'Brien's.

Typically Irish such fantastic talent and achievement gets begrudgers more than praise.

Like this thread turn, Other stuff evil Aidan might say:

"I'm here to make Racing great again."

"Welcome to Rosegreen Motha*ckers"

"DK pulls this sh!t every interview, being passive aggressive is worse if you ask me."

"Don't feel sorry for John Oxx, he was lucky to get together with those horses in the first place."

"If I'd trained Frankel, he'd have won the Derby."

"Jim Bolger was lucky he got those Galileo noms cheap, How did all those Rodrigo De Trianos go?"

"Australia in the Champion Stakes convinced me of the pro-choice argument."

"If knowing people who will tell you when a currency is about to be devalued is a measure of intelligence, then yeah, my boss is pretty smart."

"When Galileo kicks it, nursing homes will make up 3/4 of the turnover."

"The boss says he'd rather jump one himself then send em' to Dubawi."

"The boss breaks out any of the expensive sh1t in the company of his Greek Barrow Boy mate."

Got me larfing anyway........

Sound lads, all meant in the spirit of affection as Joe Brolly would say.

Joseph O’Brien became the youngest trainer to saddle a Breeders’ Cup winner when Iridessa stormed home in the Filly & Mare Turf at Santa Anita.
The 26-year-old is also only the second trainer to have tasted Breeders’ Cup glory as a jockey, after Freddy Head, following his Turf triumph aboard St Nicholas Abbey in 2011 — which made him the youngest rider to triumph.
Iridessa was guided to success by Wayne Lordan, who was also opening his Breeders’ Cup account, and he had the Pretty Polly and Matron Stakes heroine in a decent position from the start. Mirth set the pace and soon built up a big lead, but she was swamped in the straight and it was left to Iridessa and Vasilika to fight out the finish.

Iridessa (8-1) battled on gamely to land the spoils by a neck. Last year’s winner Sistercharlie was a never-nearer three lengths back in third.
Frankie Dettori was fourth on the John Gosden-trained Fanny Logan, with Just Wonderful, trained by Aidan O’Brien, fifth.

O’Brien said: “I was very happy through the race. We just wanted to get a nice position early and she had the early place to do that. “It was always the plan to finish her season here and we were fortunate to have a good draw and things worked out lovely under a great ride by Wayne. “It’s unbelievable. I’ve always got a much greater kick training a winner than riding a winner since I stated training. “It’s a dream, really, I’ve had a handful of Breeders’ Cup runners, but for this to happen it’s very special and it hasn’t sunk in yet.”
He added: “She’s been a great servant to her owner, competing in all the best races and either winning or placing, and I’d love to think she will stay in training next year, when we will run in all the top mile and mile-and-a-quarter races.”
Lordan said: “Joseph never ties you down with riding instructions, other than to suggest I might be in second, third or fourth in the early stages, and it’s a comfort knowing that Joseph has the experience of riding at the Breeders’ Cup. “She’s a filly who just rolls around and just does enough when she hits the front.” Tks Irish Racing
