IT’s a funny old day when the happiest man at the races is Ryan Moore! The British champion jockey seemed delighted to be at the Curragh last weekend. He was seen on television laughing and joking with Mick Kinane and was much more forthcoming in RTE interviews that he has been on British channels. Some other Curragh patrons were not so happy, though.

In the UK, Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn is campaigning under the election slogan, “For the many, not the few.” He’d find no audience at the Curragh.
