Thanks Ben, brings back memories of when we were there, five years ago now. Went to Aidan O'Brien's on the same trip.
 
Great pics Perp. I'd say Douvan and Yorkhill look plenty fit enough this early. Both look near a run. I presume Willie told everyone the campaigns he's set in stone for both this season! :D

Yorkhill especially hasn't a pick on him.

Thanks Ben. Which one(s) are you connected to by the way?
 
Thanks chaps. I was incredibly lucky as was riding on the coattails of a couple of mates who have shares in 6 or 7 with Supreme. The Mullins's obviously don't give much away, but were all fantastically friendly and hospitable and very generous with their time. The other plus was near shirt sleeve weather in November!

Art - I only had a nostril in Sois Gentil (now sold) so will probably move across to a bumper horse called Monday in Milan who stole my heart...
