Is he not the person who had a big strop a few months ago because of the condition of a track and said that he would be withdrawing from racing. I am sure it was him

In durban there must be more than 100 horses with names starting with Roy.
To have 100 horses in racing is really for the super rich and for image,but during my time in racing i have seen big owners suddenly selling all their horses and blaming everyone around and not long after that you open the newspaper and see that their business is in liquidation.Normally a sign of a wobble.

One of the great mysteries of the 'racehorse ownership' experience.

Consider the following contradiction:

People who get rich usually have a low tolerance for error and money losing decisions. Ruthless rules the day.

Racing fans tend to say : 'He's rich and can afford to indulge himself/herself'.

They didn't get rich losing money!

This game tames tigers. Unless racehorse ownership only represents a tiny portion of their disposable income they will inevitably 'go out'. Same as the rest of us!

Owning horses is a hobby, just the same as owning Chelsea FC, Rembrandt's and Ferrari's.

I heard that van Vuuren is down sizing, that is not really a surprise.
