Ron - I've just spent 15 mins composing a piece for the Farewell to Barry Hills thread and posted it about a minute after you closed it! Just my luck!
I certainly miss SwanHills - would be good if he came back. Also miss Relentless as his extreme 'right of centre' views always got me going.
Don't be so touchy rv! If he's your kind of jockey that's fine. No surprise to see Hills find one more winner for Chester - he has had so much...
Bit a cock-up by Hughes there with the blindfold. Apache seemed to pull too hard and ran very well considering that. Young O'Brien looked a bit...
The Irish are great Ron. I should know as I've enough relatives over there and my dad was raised on The Curragh.
Should be entertaining though Tamerlo. Shergar reminds me of those British heavyweights of the 70's - always leading with his chin.
Nice one woolcombe. The HILLS are indeed alive with the sound of music.
I agree Shergar. She seems to be improving all the time and is sure to get more opportunities in the top races from now on.
Great quote from rv! "I just get the feeling a lot of people just don't like him because he is Irish." What does AOB's nationality have to...
Cauthen's win in the Champion on Cormorant Wood was a brilliant piece of riding. Hills certainly made it the hard way and unlike many he did...
£100 win double: 2.30 - Justineo 3.05 - Dux Scholar
Interesting about ATD having a temperature rainbowview. Where does that leave AOB's excuse that he got beat because he needed a run? Things appear...
Brilliant Tam - you should be writing professionally, if you are not already.
Yes QM - I agree that is a very poor excuse. AOB obviously knows how to get horses ready for a big race - his track record proves that. These...
£400 win Vita Nova (3.05)
£500 win - Await The Dawn
Personally I would not oppose Await The Dawn. He has yet to run in a G1 so the fact he has not yet won one is irrelevant. He looks a real...
I agree it was right to throw the book at Johnson. The welfare of the horses has to be paramount. But I'm not sure I agree with QM that it is...
You have to ask yourself if they would have been as successful without the patronage of their father. The answer has to be no.
You cannot fault Hills' training career, especially when you consider he built it up from nothing. He did not go out of his way to be popular so...
