RA AGM

That's a great gesture oscar,thanks man

I have had dealings with the goosen stable and I have recieved nothing but the best treatment!

They are an honest and hard-working stable. The horses always look immaculate and the yard is always spotless.

I find that the horse always comes first, he has a top-class team behind him and owners are always well informed.

The best part about Louis, is that he speaks the truth and always has racings best interests at heart (tu)

Keep it up Mr G, you are doing agreat job.

Always been a fan of the stable, since 'DELIBERATION' days
Brilliant stable, especially with babies

Thanks for the feedback Louis. I wanted to attend but had commitments in Cape Town. All of what is being touted is extremely positive to me, and remember I own a lot of horses that ran today.

If the powers that be can achieve these goals we are all better off and we will just have to raise our game. I suppose I will have to send some of my string to take on the Kimberly crowd, hell if P Rose could win there we have to be able to be competitive.

Felling good about the future, here is my pilisophical (excuse the spelling, no spell check) moment for the day:-

THINK YOU CAN, THINK YOU CAN'T, IETHER WAY YOU ARE RIGHT !!! (Hendry Ford)

Oscar, myself and Ian (Sturgeon) drove up to the Vaal yesterday. Apart from the winner that made the return trip much more bearable, my one "good memory" of the day was when I was standing at the rail close to Louis Goosen, overhearing him speaking to one of his grooms, treating him in exactly the same manner as other racegoers/owners or an agent phoning for rides. That explains the respect from colleagues and all levels of racing people for him.

That's wonderful to hear Dynasty

I worked for a racing yard in kzn for 3months and let me tell you 90perc of the natal trainers shout at their grooms and assistants like dogs, in terms of payment the worse were the indian trainers ( btw I'm indian) there were three indian trainers in kzn at the time

Howzit Dynasty..I know thats what I was tryin to say..if you went over and introduced yourself he is the type of guy that will go out of his way to look after you at the races even if he doesnt know you..its very nice..next time go up and introduce yourself and you will see..hope to meet you one day boet!
