To quote John Gosden, relative to previous discussions on here...
On the luck of getting a good horse early on in your career.
“I know a lot of good trainers, that didn’t get the ‘one’ horse to get the break.. and once you get the break you go from having 6 horses to having 60 in a matter of months”

Used to hear the commentators say things like that about trainers and jocks a lot in the UK

"This win will be huge for their careers"

Often thought that about South African trainers that nick a big Group 1 but South Africans seem to stick to what they know

unfortunately " TYSON Gr 1 WINNER " never had the desired impact on Stuart Pettigrew.

he's still a " middle ranked " trainer, never reached the highs of De kock, millard, woodruff etc.

Yeah, I think pettigrew is a bad example tbh.
He has been solid for a long time as far back as I can remember, starting with golden globe all the way through surcharge.
