After asking you on 10 Aug 2017 16:41 where you saw the interview with Mr Scott and Julie I immediately went to check on TT.com was not down loaded on the site , So went to the live chat and after a brief chat with whoever on the otherside was assured that it would be uploaded immediately . Well still waiting last episode 23 July - Something telling me Mr Scott does not want to post his own interview.

I recently spoke to a Top Dog in the industry as they know me all to well. The one thing I expressed to him was that there was a total lack of transparency , Horse Racing has not got the best name out there , but these so called leaders of the industry, keep thinking that not being open and honest will not have consequences and we are all idiots that forget and forgive so easily because we need them.

What a Joke , in January I owned 30 Horses today I have None not even 10% , I have also not placed a bet since March this year and now I wake up happy every morning knowing I can enjoy my day stress free. Its been a change of Life and loving it.

It's exactly what I have been on about and taken a lot of flak about over the last few years, Warren - imho, the "normal" Owners are leaving rapidly and if we do not do everything in our power to turn the tide, the few "big Owners" will only have themselves to race against...
It's sad to read that someone of your passion and experience has sold up !

LG - Very sad , What many may not know is that LG was my first trainer in 1998.

We have had some chirping matches along the way and I wish you all the best in KZN .

I would like to say that there will be Change , but although I am positive I cant see it.

Its Sales week this week with 474 horse up for sale. Although I am not buying I love walking and doing my homework as you always learn something new, and been asked by a few people to give them a short list. The other part is the social part , seeing all my friends Trainers from out of town , spending time with the breeders , its a wonderful experience. The Catelogue looks good and I am sure there will be a horse for everyone. Or am I wrong , I spoke to Six trainers today and very good trainers with big successful strings , all said they have no idea why they are going through all of these horses as they have no buyers , some are still even tryimg to put horses together from Nationals and the KZN Sale .

So cant seem them buying to many on spec.

Guys ive got an offer for a share in counting stars the horse used to be with Herold then moved to glen they recon on the highfeld won't get beaten first time out

Mossel your story doesn't make sense are you sure you have the right horse. CS is related to Big City life was bouget at Emporers Palace by Glen I was there when he bought it. Peter D. Has a share . So I think get your facts together.

.....also strange to release this one to race in JHB.....still a maiden....expected much more from this .....maybe KZN a better prospect....running today...but some tough 1st timers in the race..... :huh:

The story is like I told it it's about a partner that wants out but hey then yet again it's n strange game this maybe it's also a lie just said here what I was told but yes who knows

O yes the whole horse is for sale

Let mr peter d answer and let's see what he say

M. I don't think anyone doubts what you are saying. CS is very well bred . They paid a lot of money for it at the sales . Nice specimen. If you can buy the whole horse I think it is a good buy. Cash Register out of the same mare took a whole for the penny to drop and then went on to win a few races. So for the right price Go for it . It's running today let's hope it has a good run. All the best.

Were are all the guys that ran Katz down, did you not see the man had 3 runners today with a winner and a second and a third, well done Dun Katz keep it up, come on guys give the man some credit for today.

Well done Dan.May you have many more winners.
