IT’S an early start on Monday morning, the day after Michael Jung’s historic ‘Triple Crown’ victory in the Rolex Kentucky Horse Trials, as there’s an addition to Milestone Farm owner John O’Meara’s schedule.

Monday’s first stop now turns out to be a visit to the Darley empire’s Lexington base to drop off one of his 17 resident broodmares, Oxford Joy, to be covered by the Kentucky Derby winner Animal Kingdom.
