This is the last known photograph taken of Tom Crean and 86 years ago to this day, he passed away.
Certain people, because of the deeds they carried out during their lifetime, deserve a pass into immortality - Tom Crean was such a person.

Sadly he died at the relatively young age of 61, an account of his passing and the funeral that followed can be read here: https://tomcreanbook.com/the-death-of-tom-crean-27th-july-1938

Throughout the years of campaigning to help achieve recognition for Tom Crean from the country he loved, I sometimes applied the following quote by Pericles, to posts I published:

“What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.”

Despite our celebrating a great victory of the 11-year campaign to honour him, what matters far more is the example he set others. It still leaves an impression on, and influences those who discover his epic story. He is a perfect role model for our future generations.

He may no longer be with us but that Tom Crean spirit is still going strong and weaving its way through all of those who, like Crean, go the extra mile to help others.

That's his greatest legacy.

It has been a strange year at Loop Head's bird colonies. There were big gaps in the rows of breeding guillemots, some of the kittiwake nests stayed unoccupied and the fulmars on the south-eastern end of Dermot & Grania's Rock only produced two chicks - usually there are between four and six chicks. Possible reasons are many, natural cycle, lack of food due to climate change and overfishing, plastic ingestion and subsequent inability to feed properly, bird flue hangover, ...

𝑱𝑼𝑳𝒀 𝑺𝑼𝑪𝑪𝑬𝑺𝑺
With all eyes focused on the Olympic Games, our star graduate of July has to be none other than the Paris head turner Nutcracker (Cooley Nutcracker) ridden by Liz Halliday. Sold at the 2019 sale, Nutcracker delivered a fabulous double clear round for the American squad, finally completing in fifteenth spot individually.
Nutcracker was also crowned the leading CCI4*-L horse in America last year, and gathering more accolades, it was announced this week that the Gary Doherty bred son of Tolan R is the third highest ranked ten-year-old in the world – no mean feat! Congratulations to all connections.
It is also notable that no less than four graduates were listed for Olympic consideration, two of which were named as reserves.

CONGRATULATIONS are also due to Alex Hua Tian (Poseidon’s Admiral) who having won the Go For Gold supported CCI4*-L in Strzegom is the recipient of a very generous monetary voucher to be spent at the Go For Gold sale this November. This will entitle him to purchase a horse up to €30,000 commission free, an attractive incentive that will also be in place at Plantation Fields, USA at the end of September.

Also in America, the exciting partnership of Kim Severson and the seven-year-old Cooley Corraghy Diamond enjoyed yet another international win when landing the CCI3*-S at Maryland earlier in the month.

Putting money back into the sport, Goresbridge Go For Gold were also pleased to feature as fence sponsors at the international fixtures at Millstreet and Aston Le Walls.
In the latter event, graduates were on fire to win several classes, and most notably RCA Patron Saint, who on the back of his memorable runner up placing at Badminton, was placed second in the very competitive CCI4*-S.

Sometimes in life you have no one but yourself to blame and I had plenty of time to blame myself last Friday as I sat through the mandatory ACRES training day being run by Teagasc.
