MIKE de Kock has left for Ireland via Dubai on a whirlwind trip that will end with a visit to the famous Coolmore Stud. 

De Kock will briefly check on his satellite yard in the UAE before jetting off to the Goff Thoroughbred Sales in County Kildare, Ireland. He will be joining Jehan Malherbe from Form Bloodstock and Dr. John McVeigh, who are already at the sale representing various clients.

At the end of this week they will travel to Coolmore and De Kock said: “We are looking for good racing stock for Dubai. Last year we found Where’s That Tiger and Falstaff here, and more recently Andronicusofrhodes and Scarlet Letter were leased to us by the gentlemen at Coolmore.’’

Andronicusofrhodes, winning at Greyville.
