As social media spreads the word tonight - the passing of a sporting legend, everyone here in GJA racing takes a minute to remember Teddy McCarthy.

We met Teddy back in 2017 when he became part owner of a mare called Sweet Destination, he arrived into the yard and introduced himself - we laughed as if we didn’t know who he was, the legend that is Teddy Mc was here in our yard!

Not only was he an owner in the yard, he became a friend, the type of friend who didn’t need to knock or who would put on the kettle himself. Here he wasn’t Teddy Mc the hurler he was just Teddy!

Over the years he stood on sidelines of pitches at Scaith na Scol matches shouting for Josh, always on hand to drop to training or trips to the shop with Chloe to collect lunch for everyone here, attending fundraisers for the friends of Denis Barry, copies of his book Teddy Boy turned up for him to sign and he used to laugh going ‘Jesus where did ye pick that up!’ - he was as much a supporter of us as we were of him over the years.

Tonight’s news has left us all thinking about the legend he was, we were lucky to have seen him in his glory days, we were lucky to get to know him, but most of all we were lucky and proud to be able to call him a friend.

Fly high Teddy Boy - you’ve given memories of glory days to so many that has assured you a place in heaven.

You will be missed x

It was with great sadness that we heard of the passing yesterday evening of our adopted neighbour, a great supporter of the yard & friend Johnny “The Croppy” O’Connell.
To share all the stories would take us an eternity & anyone who knew him will have their own story to share, among ours are the monthly phone call enquiring about any fast horses, the early morning delivery of veg at the bottom of the boreen in the blue van, and so many stories told during a great friendship with Granny Julia of Lourdes trips & senior citizen parties.

Rest well Croppy, we have no doubt there will be a welcome committee on your arrival in Heaven.
