    WEDNESDAY, 16 DECEMBER 2020 OXX HONORED WITH HRI AWARD THE HUNT FOR CHAMPERS Trainer John Oxx, who retired at the end of the recently AT TATTS IRELAND concluded flat season, has been honored with the Contribution to the Industry Award as part of the 2020 Horse Racing Ireland Awards which were announced on Tuesday. Oxx, who held a license for 41 years, was champion trainer in 1995 and will be best remembered as the handler of great champions like Sea The Stars (Ire), Ridgewood Pearl (GB) and Sinndar (Ire). Another recently retired fixture of the Irish racing scene, National Hunt jockey Barry Geraghty, was the recipient of the Irish Racing Hero Award. During his 23-year career in the saddle, Geraghty was champion jockey twice. His major wins included the Grand National and Irish Grand National, the Gold Cup (twice), Champion Hurdle (four times) and Champion Chase (five times).

(16 Starters) Overseas Expert Column by Naohiro Goda Both LUCKY NINE and GREEN BIRDIE ran as well as I expected in the G2 Centaur Stakes at Hanshin on 11 September. Both came out of the race well and moved from Hanshin to Nakayama Racecourse on 14 September. It was an uneventful trip even though it took nine hours and five minutes by horse van, and they have settled very well in the barn area at Nakayama Racecourse. LUCKY NINE, second in the Centaur Stakes, and GREEN BIRDIE, who was demoted from 4th in the same race to 14th in the stewards’ room, were lightly breezed for 800m on the grass course at Nakayama on 23 September. They were given another breeze on the same course on 27 September. Both Hong Kong raiders look to be happy and are enjoying their time in Japan, and I believe they are ready to produce their best form on 2 October.
