I look forward to the day where we have a 12 horse field and all the horses are owned by Darley, all the horses were bred by Darley, and the race is sponsored by Darley.

last year he was buying a handful of horses for big money and it was making all the headlines. Now he is buying whole farms all over the world for massive money and it isnt really making the same waves..

The best bit of business he did this year was buy Andre Fabre's yard and up the number of horses he sends to him while reducing the numbers Fabre can train for other owners, in particular Coolmore..

He'll never have 12 horses in a race...He is lucky to have 12 runners a meet.
