I am 1000% behind Oisín Murphy @oismurphy . I have known him for a few years now & consider him to be a good friend. I truly believe that he is innocent. He doesn’t have a bad bone in his body to be dishonest. He’s one of life’s good guys & I hope he will be proven innocent soon.

Double Up ran his last race @kemptonparkrace last night. It has become very apparent that his heart is no longer in racing and at the age of 9 he must now be allowed to put his feet up. He’s been a great servant over the years and will now become my daughters riding horse.

This gentleman is Mr Jaber Singh. He is Lady Parma’s groom. He wakes up everyday at 5am to handwalk her, to feed her and to clean her. This win meant so much to him and even though he is not on Twitter, I’m sure he will get to see this somehow. This win was for you! Thank you!

To all the people who tweeted horrible things about Jamie Moore yesterday, I’m sorry you lost your two quid on your bet. Personally, I’m just happy both he and Goshen came out of the race safely!.
Thank you to all the messages about Goshen yesterday, who was running like something not normal. From the bottom of my heart I’m genuinely so sorry to everyone I let down I really am,it’s been so tough to take but it’s happened, I hope he gets to show how special he is. Thanks.

His Highness Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum was a true gentleman who always made time for my children. Racing will never be the same without him. Thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time. 🙏🏼

I remember walking into the tack room at Meydan a few years ago and seeing the Queens exercise sheet and tack hanging up. I just stood and stared at them for ages. Racing will never be the same without you. Thank you Ma’am, for everything.

Saddened beyond belief that Pat Smullen has passed away this evening. We spoke not so long ago about how he was looking forward to visiting Meydan races in the new season. This will never happen now. Rest in peace my friend. The world will not be the same without you. 🙏🏼.

Dear good people @RacingPost , Please can we have the old version of the app back? This new one is a real pain in the backside, as mentioned before there is too much going on with pop ups etc and today it’s not working fully. Race date page is broken. Not fit for purpose!

We have taken the decision to retire LADY PARMA from racing. She will be leaving @ZRacingstables to start her new life as a broodmare in the UK. Lady P has given us some great memories in Dubai & she now looks forward to having a date with Iffraaj @DarleyStallions #BlackTypeFilly

RIP Henry. We will miss you so much. 💔.
I'm very sad to report that we lost Highland Dress in action at Meydan today. Henry, as he was known, was a gentleman of a horse, much loved by his owners, Hicky, Spencer, Allan & Scott and adored by Megg & Ben, who cared for him so brilliantly in Dubai . RIP Henry 😪

Totally agree with @SkyJacquie ’s comments on Sky News this morning. If the horses didn’t have to walk around the parade ring for 15 mins due to the delay (which caused them to get stressed and tired) less would have fallen at the first. The protesters really didn’t help.

So sad to be waking up to the news that Zabeel stalwart Haz It All has passed away. Born in 1985, he lived to a ripe old age of 34. I will always miss seeing him around the yard and giving him his polo mints and a can of coke. He loved his coke! Rest in peace.🙏🏼( @BhupatSeemar )

Calling all twitter friends: Do you know any owners/trainers that may have a small filly or mare that has fallen out of love with racing and would be suitable for polo? Must be no bigger than 15.2HH. Retraining and a loving home awaits. Retweets appreciated. 🙏🏼.

Currently sat on a @Ryanair flight en route to the @curraghrace . Haven’t moved an inch for the last 30 mins. Apparently, there is a fault with the plane. I have advised the pilot to switch the plane on and off again. If that doesn’t work try blowing on the battery! 😂🇨🇮🏇.

Oh David, please remember @MattHancock is the MP for Newmarket which happens to be the home of horse racing. A town that depends heavily on the sport to survive economically. Why shouldn’t he be pleased that racing will restart tomorrow?.
Who does “our” refer to here? The whole country, most of whom have not much interest in horse racing? Bookies? Toffs?.
