Oxx relishing prospect of the new flat season

John Oxx is relishing the prospect of the new Flat season, which gets underway tomorrow at the Curragh.

The master of Currabeg began his training career in 1979, and many years and many Group One races later, his desire appears as strong as ever.

The one horse who perhaps advertised his training talents better than any was the brilliant Sea The Stars, who went through 2009 unbeaten, landing six Group Ones, including the 2000 Guineas, Epsom Derby and the Arc.
