    TUESDAY, 13 OCTOBER 2020 CURRAGH LEGEND JOHN OXX TO RETIRE CAMILLERI=S KINGMAN By John Berry COLT LEADS THE WAY This year we have become accustomed to things becoming very different. On Monday it was announced that we shall have to get used to something else: next year there will be no John Oxx training at Currabeg on the edge of The Curragh, with the legendary Irish trainer having revealed his intention to retire at the end of November. Few readers of this publication will be able to recall such a situation, but even for those whose racing memories are restricted to some or all of the 42 seasons in which the current John Oxx has been at the helm of this most dependable of vessels, this truly is the end of an era. John Oxx Sr began training in 1943 at the age of 33. Seven years later he bought Currabeg, and 70 years of sustained excellence in that iconic stable began. Oxx remained among the leaders of his profession for decades, most obviously being champion trainer in 1958. In those days Ireland was still very Monday=s sale topper: lot 576, a son of Kingman | Tattersalls much the poor relation, few trainers regularly handling horses good enough to establish an international profile.

Nil File No. S.2394 Form BSM2 STATEMENT OF PATRICK PAUL FITZGERALD Spa Road, Tralee, Co. Kerry. I was born on 29th June 1896, in Tralee. I was sent to the local National School until I was 15 years of age. When I left school I was apprenticed to the bakery trade. On the formation of the Volunteers in Tralee in the latter end of 1913 or early 1914, I became a member. The drill instructorsat the time were John Roche and Ned Leen, both ex-British soldiers. In all, there were four companies in the town of Tralee, A, B, C and D. The total strength was about 400 men. We paraded and drilled with wooden rifles throughout the year 1914. After John Redmond's speech at Woodenbridge in Co. Wicklow calling on the Volunteers to join the British army to defend the shores of Ireland, there was a split in the local battalion. A, B and D companies were opposed to Redmond's policy, but C Company were in favour and broke away from the battalion and ceased to take any further part in the activities of the Volunteers. We continued our parades and drills during the year 1915. Among the members of the Battalion Council at this time were Austin Stack, P.J.Cahill, Dan Healy and Fr.

  • Attitudes and Behaviour in the Second Referendum on the Treaty of Lisbon
    Attitudes and Behaviour in the Second Referendum on the Treaty of Lisbon Richard Sinnott and Johan A. Elkink Geary Institute and School of Politics and International Relations University College Dublin Report prepared for the Department of Foreign Affairs July 2010 Introduction Twice within the last decade, Irish government proposals to ratify new EU treaties have been defeated by referendum (the referendum on the Treaty of Nice in 2001 and that on the Treaty of Lisbon in 2008). Both outcomes were reversed in follow-on referendums within a year or so of the defeat. Although the net outcome in each case was that Ireland could proceed to ratify the EU treaties in question, the experience was not one that any Irish government would wish to repeat. In this context, our report on attitudes and behaviour in the first Lisbon referendum concluded by noting the “undeniable need” to address the issue of public support for the process of European integration “not just now and not just in the run-up to a referendum but on an on-going and long-term basis”. 1 Our ability to analyse Irish attitudes to European integration and the behaviour consequent on such attitudes has been significantly enhanced by the decision to conduct a post- referendum poll not just after the 2008 referendum NO but also after the 2009 referendum YES. Beginning with a summary of the main trends in voting in Irish EU referendums, this report analyses the sources of the YES and NO votes and of abstention in the 2009 Lisbon referendum. Fieldwork for the poll was conducted by Millward Brown Lansdowne between 20 th and 23 rd November 2009.

  • Ups and Downs Show Constant Class of Oxx Cont

So far this season Oxx has been able to field 18 horses; just three of them winners. Nonetheless a conversation with this particular wise man remains an unchanging source of equilibrium in a changing world, without the faintest inflection of resentment or defensiveness. Instead there is such comforting familiarity to his bearing--benign, calm and modest--that you feel cheapened by your own sense of affront on his behalf. "People were very upset," he admits, quietly bemused. "More than I was, in a way. Of course I was upset, and it affected our business and our livelihood. But you know, I've been in this business all my life. I know what it's like.

  • Oxx, Prendergast Join Forces Cont
    SATURDAY, 12 JANUARY 2019 COMPAS BACKING TWO NEW RECRUITS OXX, PRENDERGAST By Alayna Cullen JOIN FORCES Compas Stallions is a growing force among the Irish stallion ranks, with its founder and owner Micheal Orlandi adding two young sires to his roster for 2019. Micheal manages five stallions in total with the addition of Smooth Daddy (Scat Daddy) and Kuroshio (Aus) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}), who both stand at Clongiffen Stud alongside My Dream Boat (Ire) (Lord Shanakill), whose first foals arrive this year. Orlandi speaks with TDN's Alayna Cullen about his new stallions. TDN: Micheal, how did Compas Stallions come about? MO: Well, this is going to be my fifth year in business. I started off originally with Compas Equine as a bloodstock agent and from there I went into Compas Stallions. This is my fourth year involved with stallions. The stallion who really started things off for me was Cappella Sansevero (GB) (Showcasing {GB}), who has his first crop of 2-year-olds in 2019. John Oxx will be the official trainer of champion 2-year-old filly I really enjoyed being an agent and I learned a lot and I had Skitter Scatter | racingfotos.com some excellent clients but I realized that the stallion market has a huge impact in the industry as a whole. If you were lucky Patrick Prendergast, who handled last year=s Cartier champion enough, fortunate enough to come across a good stallion, you 2-year-old filly Skitter Scatter (Scat Daddy) for Anthony and could impact the industry forevermore. I just thought, if I could Sonia Rogers, will not renew his training license this year and get involved in the stallion industry and try and make it work, I will instead move his string and staff to the yard of John Oxx, definitely would enjoy it and it would be a challenge, so here I with the pair forming a training alliance in Oxx=s name.
