I paid recently a visit to the Irish National Stud, which is located in county Kildare, just 45 minutes off Ireland's capital Dublin. On a lovely sunny Autumn day I took the chance to meat all the current stallions at the stud. They've been out in the paddocks that day, enjoying the sun while waiting for some cute mares to arrive. The National Stud's stallions are the likes of Famous Name, Dragon Pulse, Big Bad Bob and super stallion Invincible Spirit! I also got to see the retired racing legends, who were turned out in a huge paddock, where they are enjoying life after racing. Moscow Flyer, Vintage Crop, Beef of Salmon Kicking King residing there. That's what you would call real legends, no doubt. And indeed they look so happy and well in themselves, which is great to see. So if you ever have the chance to go to the Irish National Stud, all I can say is: Do it! It's a lovely place. You can find a couple of pictures in a photo gallery on out Facebook page...
