All the Thanks

Since Orange was having a moan Let me have a go
This is the most irratating part of racing and really irkes me
I'd Like to thank The Trainer,Jockey,Breeders,Staff and whoever they can think of after the horse won
For Fuck Sake thats what they get paid for.The person that should be thank is the Owner as he's the guy with the money to purchase the horse
God forbid u get in front of the mic and say something that's not complimentary don't think you'll be to popular within the stable.
Don't all slag me as you know it irritates the shit out of you as well

i also agree with the "LINE' being over used....but in some cases ,some trainers and jocks do need thanks..and i will take the most obvious example with the horse"FRANKEL" NOT so much so for the stakes and graded races it earned for their connections but more for the way in which it was brought along in its career and the most interesting part of the documentary that i watched was in the perserverence ,the connections took in getting Frankel to settle.They used Bullet Train as their lead horse and every time Frankel wanted to motor he was tugged behind BT,if he wasn't settled.In training he aws only allowed to be given his head if he settled behind BT...these are what trainers are there for ...to get to the bottom of their horse even if there is only 1 win in them...they must find it.In my opinion in s SA,only 1 trainer i think gets to the bottom of his horse(and i may be slated for this ,but it my opinion),and that is Dennis Drier...for me he is the best trainer in South AFRICA...

Wasn't that just a brilliant doccie, i'm hoping his full sister wins today....

Further to that absolutely terrific documentary :

Did you notice that when they showed you how he was fed THERE WAS NOT A CUBE IN SIGHT. Only natural food.

Hmmmm.
