A nomination to Paddington is set to be auctioned at Tattersalls on Monday (December 4th), just before the first ‘Sceptre’ lot (1527), to raise funds for jockey Graham Lee who sustained serious neck and spinal injuries in a fall at Newcastle earlier this month.
“Our partners Michael Tabor, Derrick Smith, George Von Opel and Peter Brant along with everyone here at Coolmore and Ballydoyle wish Graham and his family all the very best,” said Coolmore’s M.V. Magnier.
Paddington (Siyouni), who won four straight Group 1 races in the space of 68 days last summer, will stand his first season at Coolmore at a fee of €55,000.
