AS Fr Sean Breen, more affectionately known as The Breener, once pointed out to me, ‘even Homer nodded’. This was a gentle way to point out an omission in a piece, not actually penned by me, in The Irish Field.

Well, I nodded last week in my comprehensive coverage of the busiest stallions in Ireland and Britain. I said that Ocovango was the busiest first season stallion when in fact that honour went to Leading Light, his fellow Coolmore sire mate.
