thanks Yogas for that heart warming story,and keeping the faith alive,that dreams are not only for those who sleep.
but i have to add that more credit must go to Mrs Plattner who had the faith in giving you the opportunity to run her multi million rand operation.To think that she took a chance on a "lesser' known at the time when hundreds more were ahead of you in the line...speaks volumes of her.Thank you Yogas for making us proud of you and thank you Mrs Plattner in taking your chances with Yogas..

now..for the important bit....dont dissappear ....tip us a winner every now and then on the site..u survived against all odds...i am sure you can also survive the flack u will get if your tip gets beaten,from those on this site...lol

Yogas, a huge congratulations to you (and team) on your Met achievement!!!!!!!!! Enjoy the fruits of your labour and talent my friend, I am thrilled for you couldn't have happened to a more humble and down to earth guy. It's always fantastic when someone has the foresight to recognise potential in another and act on it, and it's a wonderful thing that Mrs. Plattner has done to give you the opportunity to lead her operation. I have no doubt that she feels uplifted in her heart to see that she chose well when putting her faith in you. All the best, Leon Setaro

Hi Yogas. Lovely words indeed and it's great that you are putting the interests of the horse above everything else.

I think it depends entirely on the nature of the horse, though, as to what you decide to do. He has nothing to prove, but if he is a laid back horse and enjoys his work, maybe he'd prefer to be in your yard, doing his thing every morning. Being put out to pasture bores some geldings and he might still enjoy competing against horses which he has now shown he can beat on what virtually amounted to weight for age terms. Let's face it, if Variety Club disappears off the local scene he could be extremely competitive in some of the big mile races and engrave his name indelibly onto the list of greats. But you know the horse, and you must do what's best for him. He might equally equally come to enjoy a rewarding career in the showjumping or showing arenas.

Very well done, once again, and may there be manymore big race successes for you in the future.

Well done to Neil, too, in assembling that very prophetic profile of you and Mrs Plattner's training set-up, which was repeated on Tellytrack yesterday afternoon. What a pity it wasn't repeated last week, as a great many people might have been tempted to back Martial Eagle.
