....to find out if he is simply doing a job or has a passion.....ask what would he do if he won the lotto....a trainer once told me he would lock up his stable and hand me the keys....just then knew his heart was not in it....and he has no other way of making a living....shame.. :oops: .....the correct answer would be I'd go to the sales and put my money where my mouth is..... :whistle:

You could ask him what non raced horse makes it worth while to get up early each morning.

After he posts on the site for the nameless R100 punter he can then tell the owner/ breeder who bought it and has been paying the bills for 3 years

You did say thought provoking

1) Muhti - yip, you know the story - off to the Sales boet...and also lots of improvements on the yard etc.

2)Dave....yip, u know the story too. And yes, Lester the greatest of all time. No debate for me. Hero !

3)Bob, got up at 3.30am. Afternoon stables at 2 or 3pm. No time for bar....unless a nice breakfast there....

4)Mac, no idea, there is no "never seems to pay" - two yellow cards then a red card...

5)Mr H - good question. Maybe the Industry should have addressed EHV years ago when it was proven to exist in the herd and a proven vaccine exists ? The virus is proven to be stress induced...

6)Mac , no presents expected, no topping up of stakes.
