Himself and Michael O’Callaghan were making a big push at the breeze-ups this year and bought the second-top lot at Goffs in the week. Hopefully this colt can run with distinction in John’s memory. (2/2)
RIP John
John sent me this photo after his filly Navassa Island won the Listed Cork Stakes a few weeks ago. Although he’d had plentiful success in partnerships, I think it meant a lot to him to have a big winner in his own silks. (1/2)
The reverberations felt across the bloodstock world are a testament to the countless lives John Fleming touched throughout a career devoted to the industry he loved.
A deeply respected and widely admired figure, his positivity, generosity and passion for the Thoroughbred industry will be remembered by so many.
We are deeply saddened by the news of his passing and extend our sincere condolences to his family, friends and all who knew him.

A role reversal for me as I gave @samwesterside99 a stable tour of sorts with mating plans for mares on Golden Farm and updates on some of the racehorses I’m involved in. It includes news of Lady With The Lamp’s first mate and of a new partner in the exciting James J Braddock.
