Well here it is, the reason why I started the podcast - this is the story that I have told so many times. It highlights just how unfair things can be and also how funny. The irony being that this whole episode led to me being promoted!Support the Show.

A big part of working at Shadwell involved the racing Arabs. A totally different breed in all aspects from the Thoroughbred. I really enjoyed working with the Arabs and I learnt a lot about horse psychology and training from my time with them. In fact I went to work with them again later in my career.Part of working at Snarehill meant the odd trip to Melton, we used to refer to this as being exiled as you only got sent there when Denis didn't want to see you and/or you'd been naughty. I...

In this episode I go into some of the delightful horses that I worked with at Shadwell, this gives you a good idea of what working in rehab was like. It was nothing like working in Racing, a lot of the horses were frustrated and and huge!There were some nice ones and some that I met again further on in my career.Support the Show.

Weirdly there are huge chunks of my time in Australia, that I just 'forgot'. Which is strange given how clearly I remembered stuff from earlier. After talking to Linn, we both concluded that some of the stuff that we went through while working in the racing yard in Sydney was so weird/traumatic that we must have collectively just filed it away under - 'never think about again'. Don't get me wrong, I loved Australia so much but it was weird how little of Sydney I remembered, but the bits I do....

Probably one of the strangest points of my life at that point - as my Australian Adventure continued I moved to Sydney, more specifically Warwick Farm Racecourse, in the Liverpool area of Sydney. Racing in Australia was completely different to anything I had experienced before. This is part 1 and in this episode I describe what working in a racing yard was like, we also bought a car and rented a house! This whole journey was character building, and definitely shaped how I viewed the rest of m...

In this episode we get to the end point of all the yearling prep. The Easter Inglis Yearling Sales, the premier sale in Australia. A big deal. It was stunning scenery, stunning hotels and stunning horses. I loved Australia and my time there, although I weirdly don't remember much from those two weeks - I wonder why!!!! - I do remember just how much it opened my eyes. I also discuss the wildlife and how it tried to kill me or so I thought!We are nearly at the end of this series so I would...
