The Moon Shines Brightly Across The World
What an experience to be apart of!🤯
I will always regret not taking up Mike's offer to accompany Victory Moon to the UK after looking after him and Grande Jete in Dubai Quarantine after that World Cup Night.🤮
I didn't think i was strong enough to ride him everyday on the big English tracks or that my stable management was all that good outside of the monitored quarantine regime.💪
I believe that is how Tom Dascombe got involved with the stable...🤷🏽
I didn't make the same mistake when the opportunity to travel with JayPeg and Mourilyan came around for Herman in Singapore

Ding Dong Duel Settles Victory Moon Thriller
How does a horse that was very average in Cape Town (with all due respect), win a feature race in Gauteng?!
Greeting My Master won a gutsy race (albeit with a very low weight), but still he won and beat a useful field (by Gauteng standards). So this clearly shows the superiority of Cape form, and that if more Cape horses raided Gauteng it would be like taking candy from a kid. Cape trainers could send the stable lead pony to other centers and still

Pierre rode 4 winners on the day. Absolutely amazing. It's ironic that his nickname is "Striker". He hardly ever uses his whip to actually hit his mount, yet he gets them to run.Yes, he shows them the whip but doesn't "strike" them. It's all about balance and timing. An absolute lesson for our jockeys. Both youngsters and our seniors. Some of them are "whip happy*. Not all, I hasten to add.
Anyway Master

What do they say you can't keep a good man down .The bomber . The old toppie teaching the young guns how it must be done the win before on One more star. Check that out Gavin tries and give him the squeeze and shut the door but the bomber just powered his way through to win. He is a master class.

Fortune Denied Chance To Ride Again
Hello Mark
No bad idea, why should he go and ride in enemy territory
He will ride that mediocre CT lot to sleep in more than one race
And PE definitely also a No Go
Nope, sadly for Andrew the door is nailed close
by the Nasty Hopeless Association
But on the other hand Daryn, he would have known it was a 50 50 chance.
Definitely my last comment on this topic, but will respond to Hluhluwe jokes
Take care, Greetings from a wet Albert Falls

The Fairest way to sort this out is to grant Andrew a temporary license for the Kings Plate meeting
If he rides a winner he is granted a permanent number and if not he can pack his backs back to Auz
Racinge a gamble is it not does the NHA have the balls to take a bet
Kings Plate probably being the most difficult meeting to ride a
