Yeats
Tall, dark, rich, handsome & courageous. A little dangerous and tempestuous, don't get in my way. The most perfect flat racehorse.

Yeats It was a very emotional last race for me. Thanks to my fans who came over to France and supported me with their Irish flag with my name on it. Also to my connections who had a special blanket made up for me with my victories on it. I've had a great career and made history. Watch for my offspring in the coming years and catch up with my news on the Coolmore website.

It was a privilege to watch you race, will never forget your Gold Cup victories. I doubt we will see the like again!

Will send you a girlfriend or two. Hope you are not too financially orientated. Your off spring should be as good looking as you. Happy days in your retirement.,

Yeats Time to say farewell to those who have cared for me over the years, Davy, Gosuke, Aidan & Anne-Marie. The Prix Du Cadran on Sunday is my last race. I hope some of my fans come over, I get the ground I need and can show my best. Thank you to my connections for bravely campaigning me and to my fans for believing in me. Watch out for my offspring ...... you'll know them they will be gorgeous!

Yeats The tacky ground at The Curragh was not at all to my liking. Sorry there was no fairy tale ending to the day for me and my fans. It was grand to be there in the sunshine though. Next plans are Prix Du Cadran and Breeders Cup!

I didn't think that you looked like you were enjoying yourself right from the start. You are still OUR number one, though!

Yeats The Curragh are honouring the late great Vincent O'Brien and I am running in The Irish St Leger on the day, ground willing. It will be great to see all of my connections and my fans on the day. Hope you can make it, and if not then make sure you watch it on television. The ground may not be to my liking, but I will do my best - wish me luck!

probably my Irish swansong

Everyone who cannot be at The Curragh on the day can still be there in spirit and join in, watch us at the bookies or on television. You can still take part - everyone wish me luck. Will be great to be back in Ireland racing again.

We won the Irish St Leger in 2007 & Seamie Heffernan takes the ride again as Johnny goes to Doncaster. This may well be my swansong, as Aidan says, "The ground is not going to be ideal for Yeats and it could be his last run in Ireland, but we'd like to run him for the people, the Curragh, the race and the sponsors." ...This may be a tough assignment but I will do my best. Thanks for all the comments.Read more

No excuses.Just turn up and stretch your legs. What you don,t use you loose. Time waits for no one. Age is a everlasting process. Standing in a box 22 hours a day dose very strange things to one mind !!!!

Yeats Watching the skies for signs of better weather as I am hoping to be headed to the St Leger this saturday - Yipee! Johnny might even ride me. Ground currently on the soft side but due to improve. Might be my last race. I started my career at The Curragh and would be great to end it there too in front of home crowd. Hope to see many of you there! Thanks to everyone for all of the support, it's been fun. xx

Yeats Weather permitting I am on my way to the Irish Field Irish St Leger in September. I had a nice work out after racing at The Curragh recently coming home in front (of course, where else would I be?) in a 1m1f blowout with my stablemate the dashing Von Jawlensky, under the able guidance of Seamie Heffernan. Not sure if Johnny will ride me or Age Of Aquarius at Donny. Who rides me then??? Seamie - or my old mate Kieren?

The weather will have to pick up Yeats. You may have a problem with the wet and cold conditions. Plenty of rug's needed.

Yeats I'm not going to make it to Goodwood. Shame as wanted to see my fans again. I still have an entry in the Irish St Leger at The Curragh on September 12th. They are also doing a special tribute to Vincent O'Brien on the day. I hope to see my Irish fans ther

Yeats I'm hoping that the rain has stopped now. Don't think I will be going to Goodwood if the ground is soft.
